Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

  1. I've stayed here on my last 4 trips in the Deluxe, Superior or Suite and will continue to do so. These rooms are very big and well worth the extra Baht
  2. Trying AirAsia in Nov 2005 for 4,020 Baht {2 people roundtrip}
  3. I've stayed in a Suite or Deluxe room the last 4 trips and really enjoyed it. But.......trying to workout the details of my wife/girls coming to BKK and I'm wanting to pre-pay her room, as I won't be there myself. Been told I can not pre-pay with a credit card, as I must be there in person {some antiquated thinking}. The Mgr. won't budge from her stance, so I told them to cancel my next 2 reservations, as I'll find another place to stay. Instead of taking care of a 3 time/yr customer, she managed to drive me away...
  4. Please refer to this thread, to join an ESPN League http://www.pattayatalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17490
  5. Hmmmm...LAST PLACE sounds like a great name for that team.. Thanks to Shilo, for getting it started this year, as we need the title back in the USA
  6. I closed it up and formed a private league in ESPN, check your PM or the thread...
  7. http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/frontpage The ESPN Gridiron Challenge is ready to go.. League Name :FLB Password: barfine Remember guys, the title is over the water in England and needs to come back home, we looked real bad last year This is a private league, open to all on this board
  8. http://msnfantasy.foxsports.com/nfl/commish/create-join League ID #: 53697 Password : barfine This is case sensitive Draft format, auto-pick set for Sept 10,2005 I have tried a different format for scoring, which includes - & + points, as you score if you team does good and lose points for "fuck ups" I hope to get ESPN going, as soon as it comes available, we need 12 teams to start this league, so lets get playing...!
  9. Some bars will show an alliance to a certain team in a sporting event. It's usually good for business and makes economic sense, so why not show it..? For those who don't enjoy, I'm sure you can find another place to hangout for a night or two.
  10. SoCal.. LAX-KIX - 747-400 KIX-BKK- 747-200 Same on the return trip, now the 747-200 was old and it didn't have the personal TV's, but at that stage of the trip, I'm into sleep mode. The 747-400 was great, very good aircraft
  11. I was in 3 or 4 different areas on the last trip and we were never asked for ID to buy phone cards or a sim card. It was the same-same at the MBK in BKK, as we bought another phone {groan} This was about 2 weeks ago
  12. I'd pass on it and get another room, you maybe disappointed with it.
  13. I just flew JAL from LAX-KIX-BKK and not only was it a good deal {$802}, the layover times were about 1hr and 15 mins each way. I left LAX @ 1:55 PM and arrived BKK @ 11PM I left BKK @ 9:10 AM and arrived LAX @ 11AM I had my own personal TV in coach, the service was good and the seats were comfortable.
  14. My concerns would be about the trip to/from Thailand, as that is a tough one for us as well. I assume the cat will remain indoors at all times, so the climate may not be a really big factor, assuming you leave the AC on. A pet is part of the family and leaving it can be as hard as taking it with you. As long as you have the health certificates and shots, you'll probably be okay with the Thai authorities. You may want to try this link to Thai Customs and ask them any questions. http://www.customs.go.th/Customs-Eng/Conta...nuNme=ContactUs Wishing you the best of luck on w
  15. I hope this link will provide you the information, you're looking for... http://www.pettravel.com/passports_immigration.cfm
  16. WTF...? I couldn't imagine going to Thailand and not having my runny eggs for breakfast at the Nana Hotel..
  17. I did a KOA to BKK with the dates of 6/15 and 7/13 and got a lower fare. Total $891.54 - KOA to BKK $891.54 per Adult N/A per Child (KOA) Kona- Hawaii, HI, US 10:45 AM 06/15 747 (NRT) Tokyo-Narita, JP 04:20 PM 06/16 (NRT) Tokyo-Narita, JP 06:55 PM 06/16 747 (BKK) Bangkok, TH 11:25 PM 06/16 (BKK) Bangkok, TH 08:35 AM 07/13 744 (NRT) Tokyo-Narita, JP 04:35 PM 07/13 (NRT) Tokyo-Narita, JP 09:00 PM 07/13 747 (KOA) Kona- Hawaii, HI, US 09:30 AM 07/13 Multiple carriers that weren't listed...
  18. It depends if your airline flies to that destination, which mine doesn't have Asian destinations. I fly on a fare that is 95% off of the highest Y fare. So it works out to be about $300 plus the taxes. Yes I fly standby, but would be the last to get on in that catagory, as there employees get on ahead of me. I take a risk of getting stuck in a connecting city with another carrier. Been there, done that on the last trip. If your trip is flexible, it's a great deal. But mine this time is not very flexible, as I have to be back in the USA by a certain date. Now if I was retired, i
  19. Okay, I had a chance to get 2 weeks off and head to Thailand. Being an Airline Employee does have it's advantages, so I figured Thai or UAL must have some open seats to BKK from the USA. Every departure is nearly full, so I had to go to Plan B. I started checking out priceline, hotwire, orbitz, travelocity and any other website I could find. Found the price to be about $1200 from LAX-BKK-LAX, it's not the best price, but if you want to go you don't have a choice. Just at the last minute of despair, I stumble across another website, it's a consolidator from Texas. I put the dates
  20. Good Fucking Luck on hearing anything from Thai Airways. I've places 35+ phonecalls to them today in the USA and gotten a busy signal or no answer. Guess I'll have to call to Thailand tonight to get my problem rsolved...
  21. Thai AirAsia is spreading its wings to the Indochina market, becoming the first no-frills airline to operate to that region. The sister airline of the Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia intends to fly from Bangkok to Vientiane, Phnom Penh and Hanoi later this year. The move reflects a desire to seek new route opportunities in destinations that full-service carriers such as Bangkok Airways and Thai Airways International tapped for some time. Thai AirAsia, owned 51% by Shin Corp and 49% by AirAsia, has just received approval from the Vietnam Civil Aviation Administration to operate up to s
  22. FYI.. ESPN has expanded it's website to allow you to watch MLB on your PC, for a monthly fee. I wouldn't be surprised if the NCAA or the NFL soon expanded there roll into the internet. So do look at the ESPN website, maybe something like that will happen...?
