Here is the update on the situation in Thailand. Last night, the chief of Thailand’s army, navy and air force have taken over the leadership of the country.
 
Today has been announced as a special government holiday in Thailand, all government offices and banks as well as the Stock Exchange of Thailand are closed but the private sectors including shopping malls, markets all restaurants are opened as usual.

All flights to/from/within Thailand are operated as normal and transfers are organized as usual.

Everything is calm in the streets of Bangkok and even the Grand Palace is open. On a  few intersections some army personnel may be seen.  All tours outside of Bangkok such as floating market, Ayuthaya  and Kanchanaburi as well as all round trips are conducted normal without any restrictions.

There is absolutely no reason to cancel/postpone any trip to Thailand at this stage. We will monitor the situation carefully and will send you an update later.
