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. The £316 is the price before taxes are added !.
  2. Thurs 5th Oct-Sun 29th Oct, I have checked website today and your are correct the fare has increased, from £426 to £427 fare still av as of 1600 today. Bergerac.
  3. Hi Folks I have just booked a Lon-Bkk return on Thai with West East travel £426 all in best price I have seen for a long time for a non-stop flight.
  4. Hi guys need some good advice please. My wife wants to go to Thailand in Sep I will be following in Oct. Although she speaks a little English ,she does not read or write Thai or English. I really need her to travel on Thai as they will help her with arrival forms and she feels comfortable flying with them. Is there a Thai consolidator as i have tried all the usual suspects and they all come up with basically the same prices. Anyone with inside info ( Tom ). Thanks in advance. Regards, Bergerac.
  5. I have timed the run from Patts to the new airport turnoff and the best I have done is 1 hour 10 mins keeping ish to speed limit. Who knows how long it will take initially to get to the terminals ?. The good thing is that the Bkk city thru run will be no more. B.
  6. Tom, While there is only one screen for the movie, on the night flight only one film is shown and this usually finishes soon after the meal service. I always travel in the last 3 rows of seats and there is definitely a lot more room than the 34 " in the rest of the cabin as they have 3 rows of seats corresponding with 4 in the centre section even allowing for the reduced pitch on the 7443 rear centre section. If you are a person who likes to watch the movie do not sit near the rear as there is always one person sitting in your direct view who will stand up to talk to people behind
  7. Thai only disembark from the forward doors in Bkk. I never find it a big problem being sat at the back as most people dawdle along in the terminal so a quick five minute spurt will see you ahead of most people to Immigration.
  8. The best seats with the most legroom in economy are 68,69 and 70 J & k . These seats are right at the back where the fuselage narrows and there are only two seats in these rows. The seats on the other side of the aircraft 68,69 and 70 A & B are reserved in case a stretcher needs to be carried. In these seats you can stretch your legs out without touching the seat in front which is a great help when trying to sleep. I hope this is of some help, Bergerac.
  9. Has anyone visited this lounge ?. Is there a maximum stay?. What's it like ?.
  10. Do the Taxi Usually about 1200 plus whatever tolls you choose to pay. I usually agree 1200 and say motorway and that I will pay tolls . The tolls are usually less than 200 baht so for 1500 including tip you will be in Pattaya in 90 mins.
  11. Hi Floyd, The quickest way to reserve your seat is to ring your nearest Thai office once your ticket has been paid for. If you buy through a Travel agent they should have access to the seating plan. I always check my preferred seat is available before I book with my travel agent. Sorry I cant help with the website but as long as you have your ROP card when you phone you will not have any problems.
  12. I agree good thing to have. They have a great lounge in Bkk with free drinks, sandwiches, tv and comfy chairs. The downside is a max 2 hour stay and you do not have access to the major airline lounges as the advertising seems to promise.
  13. Does anyone know if Thai have introduced the refurbished 744's on Lhr -Bkk route or when this is proposed ?. I seem to remember they hoped for the end of July.
  14. It seems Thai have changed the rules again !. Maybe because they are not on schedule for their seat retrofitting, I have yet to receive my tickets for my late Oct trip which was booked through a specialist agent. Maybe they will change the rules again?.
  15. I have just booked a package deal LHR -BKK on Thai. 20 nights in the heart of soi 7 including private transfers £810 all in for late October. You can choose your seats on the aircraft if you have a rop card. please pm me for further info.
  16. Just checked for my flight dates in oct £1550 each! so much for promotion.
  17. I returned with my wife last weekend on Phuket Air it was a total nightmare. After following developments I rang from Pattaya regarding 2350 dep on the 15th and was told, " Have problem sir your flight now delayed 24 hours ". So I hastily arranged an extra night at the Flipper House and changed transfer. We checked in on the 16th but the boarding pass was for Amsterdam, after enquiring we were told Amsterdam first then Gatwick which more than half the passengers were not happy with. We eventually arrived at Amsterdam 1300 hours on the 17th and the captain told us " The British
  18. I can recommend Asean Explorer based in Alderney. I have used them more than ten times in the past five years. They always offer a great package deal and their owner has a restaurant in Pattaya so if any problems occur they are sorted by the boss.
  19. Brian, I travel around early Nov every year. I find it best to wait until mid August to book. By then fares usually stabilise and there are still plenty of dates available.
  20. I am departing at 1250 from BKK and returning 1435 from CNX , there are also early morning and evening flights still available and still for 2030bt including taxes or 799bt each way before tax. This is the best deal available at the moment but you must book direct to the Air Asia website.
  21. Air Asia 2030bt return BKK-CNX for most dates in April. I booked yesterday on website 5th-12th April.
  22. Gerald , the Thai executive lounge in terminal 1 has showers I used them last year. It is located to the left of passport control opposite the sign for gates 21-27.
  23. Royal Jordanian £390 with lastminute.com with a 1.5 hour stop in Amman
  24. Gerald I used this lounge in Nov. It has nice seating with comfy sofas divided into sections. Each section has a tv with cable. There are plenty of snacks available, sandwiches,crisps,nuts etc. Full selection of alcoholic and soft drinks. The max stay is two hours so if you time it right it is a good place to relax before your flight.
  25. Papillon What dates are you looking at?. There are still some dates available but around Easter few and far between.
