  1. ATL and CVG (Terminal B? - Behind McDonalds in the food court) both have smoking rooms.. ATL being the better example, as it will be your launching off point. Might be a bit of a pain for you BigD, you would have to do PHL-ATL-NRT(or ICN)-BKK on a Skyteam (Delta/NW/Korean) conglomeration of flights in order to take advantage. Delta has really been pushing the new DTW gateway they picked up from NW for Asia and steering away from the ATL Skyteam connections as of late, as far as pricing goes. The smoking availability is one of the big factors of why I go Elite with Delta for my business fl
  2. Hey guys, in order to bring some civility back around here... not that I don't mind seeing BigD vs. someone other than ROLAND for a change. Does the CX transfer in HK require a Chinese transit visa for Americans? I have flown through ICN and NRT myself, but never HKG so am not aware of this... I appreciate your help! Randy
  3. I guess it was good luck, but I should be more specific... it was a 3/4 size refrigerator... not your typical full-size home refrigerator. I was thinking full-size in relation to a normal minibar. And you were one room away, I was in #203, where my 3/4 was... I'd have let you borrow part of it!
  4. I have stayed on both the 2nd and 6th floors, and both times had 2 TVs and a full-size refrigerator... might be luck of the draw though?
  5. I am one of the big Residence Garden fans on here, and would definitely recommend it. The fact is that RG is not WAY too far from Walking Street at all, and IF it isn't oppressively humid, then the walk isn't too bad. Otherwise, you can easily get a baht bus, but at night it may be just as easy to get a motorbike driver to run you back for 20 baht per... I have done that on many occasions and never had much of a problem.
  6. Looks like prices are FINALLY starting to come down from the mid-South for March departures... $780 ballpark for DFW and IAH on AA/EVA, flight times are a bit dodgy, but it beats paying the $1000+ that it has been!
  7. BigD, as usual you are awesome... hope it works.
  8. On my last trip I did the flight from Atlanta to Tokyo in cattle class on Delta, and it would be really difficult for me to recommend it, but again that was on Delta, not Korean Air and more than anything it was simply the length of the flight that did it for me, as service was typical for US airlines... nothing special, but certainly not bad. As far as Korean goes, the one major disadvantage if you plan on staying awake on the plane a bit, which I do, they do not have personal video screens, and a very limited entertainment selection. One plus is, they always close with a video of a Kore
  9. www.airasia.com... They can get you into Kuala Lampur real cheap.
  10. Sounds like you are describing Climax Beer Bar, as mentioned above... bottom floor underneath Polo on the left.
  11. Now the question is... will TG pay the extra 5 baht for the in-seat video screens that they passed on for the 777s?
  12. I just stayed there at 1350B/day, but then again this is low season... I dunno this might be one for Pete to investigate, hash out, etc. Also make SURE you try your booking through the direct link from this website... I was not allowed the FLB rate on walk-up last week... I had to fill out the form and make the reservation that way in order to get the rate. Randy
  13. My mattress was harder than a ladyboy on the first night of Cobra Gold, so no you were not alone. That was another contributing factor to moving to the Residence Garden.. though I have to admit the price was very nice at 650B, but I couldn't deal with the noise primarily.
  14. I stayed in 103 as well... and yes that was the spot. Were you the one that left the half-empty bottle of baby oil under the end table?
  15. Hey guys! I am currently sitting in Incheon airport waiting out my 5 hour layover to get back to the States I just wanted to let you all know that I stayed at the Roof Garden on the first couple nights of my trip but there is some pretty damned loud construction starting up across the road that got me up at 8:00 both mornings, so I moved over to the Residence Garden, tried and true, it didn't fail me, even with the new building going up across the street there, the noise was negligible... I will give a more detailed trip report with some pics when I get back to the States... I just
