As expected in such unstable situations, news of the coup in Bangkok is rolling in quickly, and constantly changing. Prime Minister Thaksin has been overthrown by his army commander, martial law has been declared, and both CNN and the BBC have been taken off the air in Thailand. Even fast-paced blogging faces a challenge in the unpredictability of it all.

If you need to follow the effects on flights to and from BKK, nothing beats Flyertalk, where several threads are rolling among the forums. Options for general coverage include CNN's Pipeline online (where a day pass for their customized news stream is $.99), the blog of Bangkok-based travel writer Newley Purnell, Knife Tricks and Metroblogging Bangkok.
