If you wait until March JAL prices will probably go down to about 640RT. I flew last to BKK in Jan (640) and May (660). If you have to buy your ticket now, China Air final fare is 715.

Skytrooper, thanx for backing up someone that shares your point of few asshole. I think I will have my bear with Sinbin and we can be respectful of each other. Sinbin, I hate to tell you this, but there are alot of guns in Thailand and many of then are used on regular basis for very minor disputes and for a very minor fee. Piss off a Thai real bad and you will see one of these guns. I have a friend who is used to be a Captain in the Din Daeng District. He took me on a few ride-alongs and I was amazed at the number of guns confiscated in a day.

Jack No way. I am a big gun collector. I own at least 60, probably more, mostly WW1 and WW2 era and alot of modern ones too. I work in a very dangerous neighboorhood and carry a Colt .45 Combat Elite in my care with Baretta Tomcat (.32) for a back-up and a Chicom SKS in my trunk. I am not a dumb redneck. I have two garduate degress and a great job and drive a silver-grey Saturn, not a pick-up. Nor do I listen to country music but jazz and classical. You have no need for a gun in Thailand except for hunting and target practice. Why do that there. It is much cheaper here in the US. As a farang you are very very safe in LOS. If you really need a weapon, but a knife or slap-jack on Sukhumvit.
