Even though most people are thrilled to see tourism return to Thailand and a rise in the number of international flights, there is one thing that practically nobody misses: standing in line for a taxi.

According to the Bangkok Post, the recent long holiday weekend served only to demonstrate the necessity of this. Following their arrival in the country, travelers have recently shared photographs…
