$100-110 divided by 2 =$55 per night. 2 folks sharing=$55 per night.

Actually not a bad deal at all,roughly $55 a night (a week at 4 weeks:approx. THB 93,600 for 4 weeks (Per day approx. THB 3350),if you want to share with another BM and of course,the requesite rentals.

Nice update glyn.So by the looks of the newer Thai business,it's not lie flat or just not so as pictured?But I do like the color.Not crazy about the side by side though.

As they say in life,every inch (or 1.5 inches) counts!If I sat on that acft for 14 hrs,I'd be happy for every 1.5 inches.

Not this time though.

Almost anything would be an improvement on those coach ('economy' to you Brits) seats.I flew the relic last summer from NRT to ATL in Business and those attached headrests aren't very comfortible either.But I do like the size/girth.Now if DL would just put those new lie flat seats on all the acft sooner than planned.........

Delta previewed the new Boeing 747-400 economy class seats on CBS Morning News Tuesday. Peter Greenberg, CBS News travel editor, included Delta in a demo of airline seats and said Delta’s new 747 coach seats were wider, more comfortable, thinner and lighter with a nice 9-inch screen and an inch and a half of more legroom. Delta is the launch customer for this new seat. The new seats, as well as a new BusinessElite seat, are part of Delta’s $1 billion investment during the next three years to improve the customer experience in the air and on the ground. By the middle of next year, Delta will begin installing the new seats in the economy class cabin of all 16 747-400s. They will significantly improve customer comfort and in-flight entertainment on ultra long-haul 747 routes. Among its many features, the new seat is environmentally friendly and the 9-inch Panasonic monitors use 30% less energy and weigh 60% less than those installed on other Delta aircraft. The monitors also require 86% less wiring and equipment to support the entertainment system onboard. The new seat offers more personal space and increased comfort and offers improved in-seat entertainment, closer to the BusinessElite product. The 9-inch monitors are incorporated into the seat at the time of construction for better appearance and improved performance. The 747s generally are dedicated to transpacific flying, including routes from New York, Detroit, Los Angeles and other U.S. gateways to Japan. From New York, Delta’s 747s serve Tokyo-Narita and Tel Aviv, Israel.

A pretty little girl named Suzy was standing on the sidewalk in front of her home. Next to her was a basket containing a number of tiny creatures; in her hand was a sign announcing FREE KITTENS. Suddenly a line of big black cars pulled up beside her. Out of the lead car stepped a tall, grinning man. "Hi there little girl, I'm President Obama. What do you have in the basket?" he asked. "Kittens," little Suzy said. "How old are they?" asked Obama. Suzy replied, "They're so young, their eyes aren't even open yet." "And what kind of kittens are they?" "Democrats," answered Suzy with a smile. Obama was delighted. As soon as he returned to his car, he called his PR chief and told him about the little girl and the kittens. Recognizing the perfect photo op, the two men agreed that the president should return the next day; and in front of the assembled media, have the girl talk about her discerning kittens. So the next day, Suzy was again standing on the sidewalk with her basket of "FREE KITTENS," when another motorcade pulled up, this time followed by vans from ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN. Cameras and audio equipment were quickly set up, then Obama got out of his limo and walked over to little Suzy. "Hello, again," he said, "I'd love it if you would tell all my friends out there what kind of kittens you're giving away." "Yes sir," Suzy said. "They're Republicans." Taken by surprise, the president stammered, "But... but... yesterday, you told me they were DEMOCRATS." Little Suzy smiled and said, "I know. But today, their eyes are open . "

I watched about 30 minutes of that game and one of the announcers continued to call Spurs,"The" Spurs,like The Yankes,The Dodgers,ect.Spurs are referred to as "Spurs",period.The other commentator referred to them as Spurs.And this was one of the match commentators here in the US.Soccer has a long way to go in my country.You'd think that prior to the match,during the match,at halftime,whenever,someone would have corrected him.
