Anyone else having trouble using the air asia and Bangkok Airways apps and web pages? I am looking into the prices for a round trip bkk-pp next February, if I decide to extend my trip,it's an option,that or spend 4k baht with an agent.The app and web pages just don't work,tablet or phone.possibly there's a three month limit or some such nonsense. reading the reviews something is not ok.

The authorities have a cunning plan! Wait it out till one part collapse completely or partially,then declare the whole lot unsafe.Swifly followed with a total demolition.In the meantime screw the punters and tourists out of as much money as they can.Another reason to avoid walking street.

I only book direct with the airlines,mainly for peace of mind,The reviews of the agents are universally dire,that always puts me of.

The second photograph was of a naked women.

I think the penthouse is salvageable,lots of work but doable.The rodeo boys is another matter,I wouldn't know where to start apart from a total demolition.

I stayed in the classroom early this year,looked out over the rodeo boys next door to the penthouse.They are both going to need some serious work to get them into shape.lots of rats came out to play at night.Of course the locals fed the dogs that attracted the vermin at night and the birds overday.A few homeless slept there as well.

It happens every year,it coincides with the low season for tourists.We all then get exited and book flights for next winter.Come the high season or when I arrive on my annual trip, it does a switcheroo and my Euro turns to dust.Every effing year it's the same.I have just spent €2400 on flights and hotels for january.youll all see.

What's the ferel dog situation?

If that's the price for June,what will they be like during the high season?

There were flights with only carry on,no pre check in seat choice.They are not for me.Flights with a stop over and under 18 hour flight time we're all above €900.

I have booked with EVA January 9 to February 6. Clearly the days of cheap flights are over. Paid €1085,pre COVID it was €600-650 .It's a direct flight,free choice of normal economy seat and 35kg hold luggage.KLM is a few hundred euro more.Flying via the gulf or Turkey was around €900 with the stopover.

Where's the tumble weed?

PS.i was a 50 Gauloise a day man.Stopped when I was 40.

"I have the right to a smoke free workplace".I took some stick over that one.In the UK and many EU countries the unions led the fight to get smoking in public places outlawed.They deserve the credit.

I and others I know or met all have tales of poor and slow wifi internet in their rooms.I didn't try any wired connections or even if they exist. The systems are at their limits.I hope your friends doesn't rely on the internet for work or business.

I stayed in five different guest houses/hotels from 20 November to 9 January.All of them had flaky wi-fi,my two mates who were in pattaya at the same time had the same experience.Waiting at the check out of the supermarket the guy in front was held up by the dodgy connection while trying to pay with a card,he commented that it was just like the wi-fi in his room.If you need a fast stable connection for work you may struggle,if my experience is anything to go by.

KLM and EVA are the only airline's that do direct flights to Bangkok from Schiphol,not exactly spoiled for choice.Both are always fully booked in high season.I usually go for EVA.One option for me is to go via the gulf and then stay for a few nights in Bangkok,then make my way to pattaya.I will then not spend a few nights in Bangkok at the end as I have done for the last 25 years.I like to go shopping in Bangkok but I really don't need any more clothes, certainly no stuff.

The flight i would go for allows changes,€50 plus flight costs.Thats a biggie for me because I come for 4 weeks and then get an extension if I want to stay longer.KLM have always had the attitude that we should be grateful they allow us on their planes.

I won't book yet! In the past July is the month to get the best price for a flight in January.I am just curious to see what's going on with flight prices.Same as I check the exchange rate on the TT website.I don't expect €600 flights any more.Things could get strange.

I see the prices have started to drop for the direct flights from Amsterdam.EVA have dropped a couple of hundred Euro's,under a €1000 now.KLM just over 1k. That's for flights from the the first two weeks in December till the last two weeks in January,around 50 days.Would get me away for the darkest and longest nights.

I forgot the bit where they have drill out concrete and grind off the rebar.

True but there is a proper beach now days and it's getting used.lots of families with small kids mingling with the hookers.They have also got rid of the mass of wires that were an eye sore.It actually looks good at night with all the lights,especially north of Klang.Get rid of the dogs,find a way of sieving the sand to get rid of all the cigarette butts,finish the sidewalks, replant the trees, pressure wash and hey presto there's a half decent promenade.

Christmas always costs,new year it's double.

The one on second road seems to be observed ok,but I still don't trust the f***ers.Aproach with care.

Border force is planning a strike over Christmas and New year.All the airports are going to be affected.Thats if it actually happens.if you haven't booked already be prepared for extremely high prices.
