What's the rate from BKK to Pattaya and vice-versa?
-
I noticed recently on their website that they have jacked the rates on suites by 300 Baht/night and 200 Baht on rooms. They may be past the tipping point on value.

Thanks, Tom. I followed your advice and cookies were disabled for third parties in my settings. I've now set them to always open. Just checked a thread where I'd had the problem and all the photos open easily. I hope it continues to work well. Thanks for the advice.

Half the time I open a thread on this forum I get the Mac spinning wheel followed by a box that says Slow Script and this: Safari is no longer responding because of a script on the webpage “Barrio Barretto Girl - Pattaya Talk Forum” (http://www.pattayatalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=54199&st=0&gopid=877896entry877896). Do you want to stop running the script, or let it continue? It is completely frustrating. Is there a setting I can change to avoid this? It seems to happen most on Talk, less on other boards and not at all on some. I am completely techno-challenged so a

Bringing a Bargirl to my country. Good or bad idea

Their political direction also comes from Jesus freaks who are deathly afraid she might fuck some-one out of wedlock while in Canada. -
Chiropractor in Pattaya?

I have used Dr Pack twice on visits to Pattaya when back problems flared up. He is very good. Call and go see him. -
Some BMs concept that thai guys are lazy can be so wrong

That's a nice looking house, Dr Mick. Did you have that built or did you buy it built? -

Death of a Shopping Mall: A Rant
jimmac replied to MeGoDanceNow's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Very interesting analysis. As some-one who stays at the Sandy Spring when in Pattaya I think the Avenue was a great addition. I like the easy access to quality farang food at the Villa supermarket. I did initially enjoy the massage place on the top floor but alas it is gone. You fail to mention the Wine Connection which is also a major asset close to my hotel of choice. Is that store still there and will it survive? I couldn't agree with you more on the stupidity of covering every square inch every evening with shitbox stalls. -
Fon tuk mak mak. ..pissing rain in Pattaya
jimmac replied to dontcha's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
How does a guy as obsessively Baht conscious as you afford a smart phone? Seems like an extravagance. Almost as bad as ST for 1,500 Baht or flying business class. -
That's a quite small looking boat and 20 knots is not exactly high speed. But it would be nice to get a review of the trip from a BM. I hope it works as it would be a nice option to have.

Sounds like suicide.

That must be why they hired Sven. He can chase TGs in Pattaya.

Qatar Airways adds third daily flights to Bangkok
jimmac replied to Fireman Sam's topic in Airline Discussion
Are they likely to have rights to sell flights between BKK and Vietnam? If yes, there could be some interesting fares for those legs. -
My point is perfectly illustrated here. You can't read and you know everything and only you dispense have the almighty power to dispense rights. What idiocy! Now please fuck off back to PL and don't tie up this board.

When PL started I wrote a note to a Mod asking for upper level status as I had been on this board for many years and other Pattaya boards as well. That was granted. I posted occasionally and read the board regularly. Earlier this summer mulphy decided to go on some kind of clean-up of the board and evicted people with security access to some of it. I was one of them. I sent him a polite note asking to be reintsated or at least receive some explanation. I've yet to get a reply. So fuck PL and its operator and his bar. Some-one who hasn't the courtesy to reply to a customers inquir

I hope this comfortable mode of transport to LOS will enable you to start as soon as you arrive with your usual great standard of trip reports on here. I look forward to some interesting stories on your experiences and some of your great photos of beautiful ladies. Enjoy your trip.

It's great that it's about to open. I would take the 'normal' price with a grain of salt. The promotional price is a little higher than you get at the Hilton in BKK and I can't see Pattaya sustaining prices higher than Bangers. Some members of this Board will stay from time to time including this one. First, the price is very reasonable for HiltonHHonors members at 30,000 points/night. That's a good deal. Second, HH members often like to accumulate 'stays' for HH status so I can see myself staying my first or last night in Patts at the Hilton just to get a 'stay' with the added benefi

I'm interested in a report from some-one who has actually used the new service. The Hong Kong train is excellent. You can wheel your luggage right to the train from the baggage carousel using a buggy. And at the other end they have buggies waiting on the platform so you can wheel your luggage from the train to the taxi stand. And at the intown stations you can check-in your bags and get boarding passes right their so you board the train and get to you gate,etc with only your carry on. If BKK can do the same at Makkasan it will be a good service. I'd use it if I could wheel my lugga

That's a great find. It would be good if you gave us a full trip report on your Aerosvit experience if you use them in October. It would be nice to see a couple of photos inside the plane, seat, meals, etc. Maybe even a review of the flight attendants.

Sorry, I missed the 'sharing' in your prior post. I actually saw it at the last moment and tried to stop my post but I guess I was too late. As others have pointed out sharing would be an interesting negotiation.....how much does the guy getting the palatial master suite pay and how much does the guy in the closet pay? Maybe you pay housekeeping to change the sheets daily and trade bedrooms. I still think the price is very steep for what your getting even though the place is nice. That place should be about $2,000 for a month.

To answer my original question Something Mega is just fucking online shopping, nothing to do with flying. I'm still hoping they will start using their new computer system to offer through fares i.e. two legs thru BKK on one ticket. Their PR crap about the new system says they can do it. I wish they'd start.
