Airports are still open & Thai authorities are not blocking foreigners leaving. During the last time there was an emergency decree, foreign tourists were allowed to travel during curfew if they were heading to the airport. (Please note, we do NOT have a nationwide curfew yet.)
No foreigners are allowed to enter the kingdom, whether by plane, boat or on land. Exceptions are people who have a work permit and diplomats.

IMPORTANT: The emergency decree has started. There’re now health checkpoints at entry points to Bangkok & all provinces. Thais are being told they must carry their ID card. Nothing yet has been said about foreigners, but I strongly urge you to carry your passport if traveling.
