  2. Thanks for the reports as I fly bbk to London this sep. Well now i know 1st leg may be a bind ,but longer 2nd route looks ok. I paid £550 for kingfisher compare to Etihad,emerates which was well over £800 ,
  3. Some times I use my air miles with Etihad to upgrade. Love the flat beds ,I sleep all the way ,so it seems the trip only takes 1 hour. But only trouble with this i miss the meals and good wines when asleep
  4. I had breakfast there last month ,it was very good

  6. Sounds good to me now looking forward to my holiday and seeing my family again in the uk.
  7. As most xpats know its always more expensive to fly BBK to London and back to BKK. Well me and my lady hope to take holiday this sep to see my family back in the UK. Most of the airlines i use in the past,Etihad,Emerates,which are classed as 4 star airlines prices for these for September are being quoted over £800 for each ticket. Today I booked with King Fisher airline ,after checking that this has been classed as a 5 star airline. The best thing is the price is about £550 each ticket ,so thats about £500 saving compare on the other good airlines which I have used in the past.
  8. Nice place in Khon Kaen ,but sounds you had enough of Issan, Hope you find happiness in Pattaya , I think you may have to pay a little more than 5000 bhts for all inclusive ,but might find for renting fee only,But I may be wrong Good luck to your search
  9. Thats why England will go all the way ,have more than 11 men in their team. Does not matter how the ball goes in the net its a goal. The skill ,which is a great skill is to have good crosser of the balls in the danger areas.
