[^1]\n\nThe USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier sailed into the Thai seaside resort of Pattaya for a port call on 2026-04-09, after concluding a record 286-day deployment supporting US military operations against Iran, reported by The associated Press. [^2]\n\nThe US Navy aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln arrived in Pattaya, Thailand, on 2026-01-02 to begin a rotation out of Middle East operations. [^3]\n\nThe owner of a massage parlour in Pattaya, Thailand, called on approximately 5,000 US sailors visiting the city to stop by her establishment. [^4]\n\nThe two sailors will be confined to the ship for the remainder of their five-day stint in Pattaya. [^5]\n\nBefore the 2026-04-09 port call, media reports had raised concerns about the crew's worsening mental health and food shortages aboard the ship, US, Navy; the US Navy dismiss of these concerns, and President Donald Trump stated the 286-day deployment was not 'nearly long enough for' the length of it. [^6]\n\nRoughly 5,000 sailors from the USS Abraham Lincoln went ashore in Pattaya during the 2026-04-09 port call, with some getting pedicures at the Colour Nail salon and buying mall merchandise, including 'simple stuff like new socks'. [^7]\n\nExtended deployment caused severe fatigue among the crew, with reports indicating that one sailor attempted suicide due to depression. [^8]\n\nThe US Navy ordered the USS George Washington to replace the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Middle East region to facilitate the rotation. [^9]\n\nThe USS Abraham Lincoln had been deployed to the Middle East since November 2025, engaging in continuous sea operations for over 200 days due to tensions between the US and Iran. [^10]\n\nAround 5,000 US sailors from the USS Abraham Lincoln are expected to spend time in Pattaya, arriving yesterday and due to leave at the end of the week. [^11]\n\nThe owner stated that her employees are 'starving' for custom and that the business has only received one or two customers a day recently.
