  1. With my Brother and son coming in Sept and several taxi trips planned, not just Airports, Yuri seems a good alternative if Nams is getting to busy. They are about the same price as Nams, not overpriced. So would be interested in reviews or how many trips are being passed from Nams to Yuri. I like the overpriced AOT Bkk to Sukhumvit but they are too much to Pattaya and 1/2 day trips.
  2. Thanks for the clarification, I don't fly DMK so will continue to use Nams.
  3. Are out of Don Muang? I was planning to use her in September for BKK
  4. Will be a big change for me in Pattaya . I exited stores with multiple grocery . The sharks were on me and we never settled on an honest deal until I climbed in back of the BB smiling 10 baht to late . Now Bolt 100%. Bangkok taxis are easy . “ No Meter, 500 Baht to Airport, 100 baht anywhere else no BS
  5. Rules Question. I have never seen or even heard of the Wraith. But when looking on Imd I know of one of the actors and can can reference him to another movie I have seen without looking on the Internet, Allowed?
  6. Men in Black.. Im re watching the Series on Amazon so all my answers are MIB
  7. Equally easy, ought to put us on a roll. Cape Fear.
  8. Teelack I go to BKK every 2-3 weeks and with Amex I get in free Miracle Lounge. The lady said you can buy in for $30usd. This would be worth it to me since I can get some Curry,desert ,5 drinks and a comfortable environment. At Narita the lounge I think was $50usd, I had status with ANA so free and getting a shower was nice. Sweet on a 2hour lay, top shelf booze and a chef with rare roast beef or sushi. With your frequent travels look into getting a high end CC even if you don't use it. Decide if the annual fee is worth it. I don't travel anymore but those lounge visits really made my 24 hou
  9. Tim Newton did a YouTube on this today. He says the same ,many scams and relayed it is easy to do yourself 5 minutes
  10. That's wild.I would have to think about cancelling and booking another carrier. My current flight, and all I want to ever do, is my 45 minute to BKK. They installed Business class seating at the front. I was a pretty spoiled guy when I flew but I'm not seeing 5,500 baht when economy is 2550 for 45 min.
  11. Yea the carriers found despite the increased loads the A380 is not cost effective. I missed the era of Nonstop Thai 17 hour JFK-Bkk. that would have been sweet.I don't fly anymore. My family can visit me here though I miss the freedom of Arizona and throwing dice in Vegas. I wish Thailand had a General Aviation sector, I'd buy a cheap plane and commute to Pattaya on my own. I thought about riding the CBR to Bangkok but had to face my 70 y/o body is quite different than my 30 y/o body.
  12. This was a real plus on the 24+ hour flight to BKK, shower in Narita and hit the ground running on Sukhumvit. Last trip I was scheduled on the A380 with a shower on board but they switched to the 777. No one wants to fly the 380 anymore but I have seen a few at the airport.
  13. Echo this for the newer guys arriving. Transportation should be the least concern but for guys back home with jobs/family and an expensive 14-24 hour no cancel flight it becomes the most. I also appreciate the early arrival. When Nams was first suggested by a BM, Force?, It was excellent and I thought "Well this will go to shit in 6 months" but she has stayed consistent all these years. For the CC Bells Bus is also a great option . But now a curmudgeon in my 70's with arthritis my bus days are over.
  14. RIP Big George, if you look at their lives Foreman and Ali were decent people both a credit to the sporting world.
