Yes I agree. Very 'pie-in-the-sky', or in this case 'Thai in the sky' .

After this happens they report 98% of flights to France from Bangkok return empty from France.

Not sure why people think this will not happen?

As surely this is the way Thailand wants to go, free short term visas, and expensive long term visas.

My wish is that they will do as with the Russians, 3 Visa free months for tourists to Thailand! 😉

Quantity over quality 

The Thai police will have a lot more work than they already have.

Good luck

Not the part I was referring to. I would like to take my gf to Europe. Not an easy thing at present. What I alluded to above was the idea that Thais might gain easier access. And I want to see it before I believe it.

I doubt this will ever happen, at least not in the way it is being presented. A true Schengen reciprocal deal would allow all Thais to visit any European country for up to 90 days in every 180 day period. The number of BGs that would be flown over by their rich sponsors or go working as hookers like they already do in Dubai / Singapore etc, would rise significantly. Thailand will never let all their hot LBFMs leave the country like that.

They're simply going to ask EU prices
