Is it safe to go to Phuket now?
The following is a summary of the handmade tsunami. I hope you can travel with peace of mind after reading our analysis.
Event replay:
On April 11th, at 16: 38 pm, an 8.7 earthquake occurred in the waters near Sumatra Island, Indonesia, which triggered a tsunami with a wave height of 8 cm. The earthquake was felt in Phuket. The Thai government immediately issued a tsunami warning and Phuket Airport was temporarily closed. At 22: 2 pm, Thailand lifted the tsunami warning, and the airport immediately announced that it would open at 8 am on the 12th. The earthquake ended, and residents and tourists in Phuket returned to normal order.
although the incident has passed, let's sum up the impact of this incident and make a reference for similar incidents in the future.
1. Indonesia has earthquakes all the year round, but not every earthquake will cause a tsunami. So don't panic when you learn the news of the earthquake.
2. Even if a tsunami is triggered, it will not necessarily have a serious impact on Phuket. It depends on the location and depth of the source. Not every tsunami will cause the same disaster as in 24.
3. After the tsunami in 24, all countries along the Pacific Ocean established effective tsunami warning. The tsunami warning arrived in Phuket more than an hour earlier than the tsunami, and there was enough time to escape.
4. after the tsunami warning, it is a normal measure for the airport to declare temporary closure. Don't think it's a terrible thing. After that, the airport will open normally. The airlines will properly handle the flights affected by this.
5. Due to sudden events, the telephone communication in Phuket is basically paralyzed (the number of incoming and outgoing calls is extremely large), making it extremely difficult to make incoming and outgoing calls. However, the network is still open, and the understanding of this incident is carried out with local colleagues through the network. If it is inconvenient to access the Internet, it is also a good choice to open mobile phone traffic, at least you can use QQ or WeChat (this needs to be opened in advance).
6. It is a normal evasion, not a panic, that the local people are climbing mountains on the Internet. We contacted the top management of a hotel chain. They have ten hotels in Phuket, and each hotel is organized by employees to take tourists to high places to avoid danger. After learning that the tsunami has passed, it will be brought down by employees. Everything is in good order.
7. The actual impact of the tsunami is very short-lived, usually for a day or two, with no sequelae. Therefore, as long as there is no new earthquake, the incident will end here and will not affect the tourists behind. However, as the hotel executive said, "the psychological impact of the tsunami will be far greater than the actual impact"
8. The airline and the hotel will handle the situation of flight delay, hotel reduction or increase of one-night accommodation caused by the tsunami. The travel agency is an intermediary structure, which is responsible for coordinating the situation, but does not make a final decision. The actual handling results of the airline and the hotel shall prevail.
