Please tell me, for departure from Phuket by charter flight, the airline requires some kind of permission, but does not explain where and how to get it. Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

There is a law in Thailand — you cannot fly a charter flight without special permission if you flew into the country on a regular basis 2): Transportation of revenue passengers who do not participate in an Inclusive Tour Group, is not permitted. That is, if you flew by charter, then without permission you can only fly by charter of the same airline or any regular (non-charter) flight of any a/K. In case of violation of this rule, when attempting to depart, you may not be registered and not allowed on the flight. Airlines refer to a letter from the Department of Civil Aviation of Thailand to UTair Airline. An example of not leaving the media. It is possible: Charter — Regular Charter — Charter (same AK) It is not possible: Regular — Charter Charter — Charter (different AK) How to get permission: A person turns to an agent or airline, depending on who bought the ticket from. If to the agent, then the agent makes a request to the airline, and that in turn makes a request to the DCA. If a ticket was purchased from an airline, then a request to the airline, and that to the DCA.
