  1. hey mats, betcha i know who turned you on to thia archer. You and OJ going to be around for my party nov 27th. I plan on getting a couple of girls painted and having a blow out party.
  2. I have been on thai several times between hkg and bkk or nrt and bkk when using star alliance ff miles. the flight would have sucked had it not been for the fact that every time i have been on thai there were lots of empty seats so it was always possible to either have no one siting next to me or to move to a seat with empty seats next to me. otherwise thai would be the same as typical cattle class in united, ingapore etc. service about the same as united just better looking FA. all my friend fly eva delux. they say it is a nice wide seat.
  3. instead of grace try europark hotel soi 1 1000 baht and much better atmosphere unless you want the bowling aley etc.
  4. you speak arabic??? doesn't it have a bowling alley in it??
  5. TFC, okay if you say so. Good Luck, but I dropped AOL several years ago
  6. TFC, good listing but that is an internet harvesting page. If you try to link to anything it will take you ip and junk email is your forever.
  7. john, you missed it. in the morning there is a free buffet. eggs cooked to order, smoked salmon, bacon, sausage, waffles, every type of fruit you can imagine, coffee, tea, oj on and on makes nana hotel buffet look sick.
  8. I have stayed twice. They never charged me a joiner fee, in fact they were extremely girl friendly, both times I booked thru directrooms.com. The buffet in the morning is good. Hotel is just down the street from gullivers where you can find some pretty good talent. Hotel lobby got a remodel sometime between 2001 (first time I stayed there) and 2004 (2nd time I stayed.) Gym equipmeny is okay for a hotel. Pool not bad. Easy walk to nana, soi 7, skytrain.
  9. I have noticed that the monthly prices are all over the place. some hotels charge ask for between 15-20 days rate paid in advance. others give almost no discount at all. If you truly want a month why not go for one of the montly places. They seem to have better prices.
  10. I was recovering from a pinched disc back in april. The thai massage didn't help at all. sometime seemed a little worse sometime better. Tried to find a chiropractor but none of the thai knew what I was talking about even though the understood my phuut lange.
  11. I just booked my november trip with united. It is $811 including all taxes leaving on a friday returning on a thursday. I will earn 39,600 miles on the trip and i will be in premier seating becuase I am a premier executive. since this is my third flight this year I will be over 50k miles for the year and a premier exec next year. The 3 flights earned a total of 114,200 miles which is almost enough for 2 free trips. My biggest temptation was to fly EVA air in delux class. The cost would have been $1050. Since I fly to LOS 3-5 times a year United makes the best deal for me. If I was flying o
  12. One of my friends was able to transfer his ticket on eva to someone else. I never thouth they would allow it. United doesn't
  13. flew Thai air bkk to chaing mai on short notice cost was like 10,000 baht, bought ticket at last minute. Sevice was good flew on large plane.
  14. to get miles youse gottabe the passenger. all you will get is the visa miles if you in that program. Benefits of putting them under your number are: Other punters flying on tickets under your number can find their reservation by asking for your name as well as their own, or if you are trying to sit together having it all under your number will help in making the seat assignments. i.e. after they are made they won't change them becuase they will show that they have to move all of you not just one person. .
  15. 100,000 baht. what are they doing? rebuilding your entire face? My wife and I had our teeth cleaned total for the both of us was 1100 baht. She need 3 cavities filled and 2 impacted wisdom teeth removed. total cost including acrylic fillings and novacaine etc is 4400 baht. I need a crown on 2 teeth. He told me that if I paid in advance the cost would be 9000 baht. at that rate they would have to be doing 20 crowns or 4 full sets of dentures upper and lower. And BTW I was paying farang prices.
  16. stayed there june/july 2004. no joiner fee then. very good buffet in the morning
  17. almost all of the mainstream hotels charge extra for christmas and new years. In koh samui some of the hotels charge 3 times their normal rate. BigD is the source for the cheap places to stay.
  18. samosonite, I think that you experience is some miscommunication that can happen at any hotel. The suite is quite large and if you compare their beds to other hotels I think you would have to say they are comfortable. For 2500 baht a night what level of quality did you expect the furniture to be. I think you will find that sandy's furniture is better that residence gardens and not as good as marriot. As for drawers there are many drawers that open. Try it sober. I think you will find that the new sabai lodge will have rooms to your liking for a reasonable rate. Sorry to hear that you
  19. I have been checking the rates and united is flying sfo 2 bkk for $700 to $800 for september and october. Fro november the fares are $1200
  20. Hey, My wife has stayed with me at nana and didin't complain. We now stay at either majestic grande( i have coupons for 2k baht) or euro park(soi 1) 1k baht a night. But she really did NOT like flipper in pattaya. If you think nana is a dump what do you call flipper?
  21. Carlsburg told me the wifi worked well. As for joiner fees when I had multipe ladies I stopped by the desk and asked for extra towels and pillows. They told me there would be a fee for the extra towels but I was never charged. I always had great service at RG. The beds are just too hard for me.
  22. Nana has foam mattresses. Very comfortable, especially when compared to alot of other hotels in LOS. In addition the have a headboard that is padded. If you like to sit up in bed and watch Telly then you will find the bed very comfortable. The rooms are not that bad. Personally I don't think dynasty in BKK is much better and nana has a great breakfast. it is a buffet and it is one of the few place in thailand where they cook bacon properly. I normally load up and the fired eggs sunny side up and lots of bacon. A few pastries and some fruit. They also have plenty of foos that the BG like. If yo
  23. I heard it is crawling with arabs. specifically from saudi. maybe you can verify?
  24. you don't want bayview. If you are going to take a siam hotel take siam bayshore. It is in a great location and is a great property. I don't know if they are BG friendly or not. I have stayed at siam city in BKK and they are extremely Bg unfriendly. Same people own siam bayshore and siam bayview so I would guess not freindly for BG. BTW if you are looking in that class the travel agent may suggest montien. Very nice hotel property but They are definately guest unfriendly. They were real shits to me when I went there with regular TGF. she was walking with me and they grabbed me by the arm.
  25. telewhiz is where i registered my sim card. I bought a started pack from a shop in it center but they said it would not work until I registered it and told me to go to telewhiz (about 15 meters away.)
