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.

Exactly. Inter terminal travel is usually easy, anywhere. It's getting from one side to the other that's a pain. I was also a bit pissed off that despite being almost as old as Buddha, they wouldn't help me with a bit of electric trollying. Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

The only comment I would add is as follows. While KLIA is indeed a bit of a zoo, I find that the distances to travel between flights easier than Singapore.. The train or bus makes this easy enough for me. Singapore can see me jogging bloody miles despite asking for help which I didn't get. Admittedly this is in part due to the very tight schedules that they fly. Late last year they held my flight up 30 plus minutes to allow people to travel across the airport. How easy it could have been fixed by putting us all on one or two of those electric people movers. Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

For some reason I can't figure out, Malaysia costings are a real mystery.An English friend considered flying from the UK to Bangkok recently and found business class to be among the most expensive. When you consider that they keep on mislaying their planes you have to wonder why. Also KLIA is possibly the most expensive air port to stop over in. With local tax added a standard bottle of beer is around 400 baht! Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

I understand what you mean. Malaysia allows you to select what you are willing or can afford to pay for an upgrade, but there are minimum figures set. Bearing in mind that for me it is 4 separate flights. Two long two short and I can bid for any part of the schedule. I can guarantee an upgrade for an exorbitant figure or take my chances with a low ball bid which rarely succeeds. Sent from my CPH2669 using Tapatalk

Good question. Because I am limited in my choice of airlines I use Malaysia Airlines quite often. They offer all sorts of upgrade but I am sorry but I am not sure if European airlines have similar options. Incidentally. The upgrades have to be bid for. They have a sliding meter telling you what the percentage possibility is. Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

I fly economy most of the time. I apply and occasionally get a paid upgrade, but not often. I have however started to use air lounges to ease the pain. Here is my questions. It seems to me that prices are all over the place for occasional access. Perhaps the best I have come across is Trip.com. What am I missing? Their prices are lower than the airline /lounge direct charges? I don't fly enough to warrant any of the major Lounge Pass sites. I would appreciate any feedback on the subject.

You hit a few nails on their heads this month. I am sitting a restaurant in Pattaya laughing at your words of wisdom and waiting for the men in white coats to collect me. Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

Bugger! This means that I have to leave myself most loved shirts at home or face a barrage of criticism? As for the backwards cap. A friend of mine told me years ago that, "My son is a good guy but all he has to do is turn his cap backwards to become a moron". Sent from my CPH2669 using Tapatalk

Would you believe it? Artificial Intelligence.
teelack replied to blue_flag's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I haven't really given AI much thought. I do however like YouTube a lot and the videos can be a real eye opener at the moment. I mention this as there seems to be so little genuine intelligence out there at present, I guess that we should be thankful for the artificial sort! Sent from my CPH2669 using Tapatalk -
I have never used Nam's taxis so haven't got an opinion. I did however look at the web site and note that they still offer a 1000 baht service to Pattaya from International. As far as I know this may be one of the only ones left with a 1000.B fare but its apparently according to availability. I realise that after travelling 24 plus hours a couple of hundred baht makes little difference but perhaps there are some out there that would welcome saving a few hundred baht on their Thai trip.

No real idea what or who Yorkies are. Seems however that it's only for real men. Having said that, I did photograph the mug in an op_shop! Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk

TDAC - Thailand Digital Arrival Card commences 1 May
teelack replied to Bazle's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I too almost got caught out with some of the commercial sites. I was heading to Cambodia and eventually found the official site. Any sign of a cost for these sort of thing, start searching. Wonder what happens (and if am sure it will be many times) if you don't register or leave it too late for the 3 day prior to flight timeline? Sent from my CPH1941 using Tapatalk -
Definate downturn in prices out of London to Bangkok return
teelack replied to Rawhide2's topic in Airline Discussion
Unlike European travellers I am quite restricted to who and when I can travel. I am however interested in the pricing as UK to Thailand is almost the same distance as I have to fly. Over the years I have used almost every combination of airlines to travel to and fro. The one rule I try to keep to is this. If I can find a reasonable fare with a top rated airline that has good times, I will use it if there is not too much of a price difference. For instance, there is a world of difference flying and transiting via Singapore on Singapore Airlines than China Southern via Shanghai. Or using Cathay or Malaysia Airlines rather than Brunei or (I hate to say it) Qantas or even Thai if it means transiting via Australia. Sure. Price is important but it's only part of the picture.

I thought that I might summarise and clarify the Priority Lane issue . On arrival the PL is to the far right of the main Passport /Immigration Area (that we all know and love!). You cant go further! its on the same floor and feeds directly onto the carousel area. Its been in action for some while now and I have never had more than two people in front of me. As for departure. As you come in the front entrance to the departure area turn right and keep right. Walk as far as you can (its beside to lowest numbered check in counter) and its right before your eyes. Yes, its a bit longer walk but the whole procedure of security and passport can take less than 5 minutes. Its a breeze.
