How busy are the LHR-BKK flights now it's high season?

I'd imagine Eva is pretty rammed most of the time If you run flight price checks they invariably are cheaper than 90% of carriers going via their hub -
Sim Card with decent monthly data packages
Rawhide2 replied to Rawhide2's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
......and thats why I wanted it left on the main board Seriously the board can go 24 hours without a post in the main sub forum so I start a thread (certainly 100% relevant to myself) I ask for it to be left there if possible (clearly politely) and yet minutes later its moved quite deliberately AJ if that was subtle pop it went over my shoulder and is currently floating down the English Channel I'll ask the question elsewhere instead where I should have put it in the first place.....disappointing -
Sim Card with decent monthly data packages
Rawhide2 replied to Rawhide2's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
lol....one guess only -
Move the thread if you think appropriate but leave here if possible for now Am looking to update a Sim from Truemove which is still "live" or replace it with DTAC or AIS Simply looking for monthly deals on data....not on calls whatsoever Fot yonks I was using a short code on True which was an "always on" unlimited data connection and around 212 Baht for a month.....speed was throttled after 1GB was reached but it didnt matter as was only used for Messaging Email etc etc What have you guys got. Am not interested in going Lazada or anything like that just a simple short code....now True still have deals on website but much much higher monthly cost now for anything with decent speed.....Multiple times I read elsewhere of 15 speed downloads unlimited data for a month for around 200 Baht !! No sod wants to tell you what it is though (does it exist !) As I intended to use it for a bit of streaming and maybe "tether" clearly I need more than a heavily throttled speed which that existing plan is Any suggestions ?? Thanks

No problem.....its an extremely deceptive way of pricing when it "lands" like that My original screenshot I had cut off the dates which included the return. Only when I clicked through does it become clear that the price is only for outbound sector Very deceptive (PS someone tell that Pensioner with the Thai Wife that always flys Qatar that I know its always him with the childish emoji)
-
If you go Travel Trolley the preferred agent I mentioned before here are the flights same day. (inbound different departure hour)
-
Ouch ouch ouch !!!! No its not....click through to the booking and that price is ONLY for the outbound flight !!! You then have to add the inbound price lol
-
Great find Sinbin am astonished at those fares and thought at first there has to be extras on that but you can see from screenshot 25kgs bag included etc 10/5 to 10/6 departing Gatwick which even more astonishingly is a Saturday on the inbound Edited.....I cant get anywhere near that same days using my preferred agent in fact its £573 with Singapore.....!! Thats a fantastic price in the current climate. Its got to be a promotion by Qatar and fair play to them
-
Sinbin where are you seeing Qatar sub £420 for May/June ??
-
What makes Skiathos even more dangerous is the huge slope and the fact its water and the runway literally metres apart.....theres no threshold so to speak They take off in same direction they land and the pilot of our TUI aircraft came on to pre warn there would be a lot of noise pre the aircraft moving on its take off roll......because of additional slope issues they have to spool the engines as high as they dare whilst still holding it on the brakes Then they let it go.....at the top end there is a sheer drop into the sea
-
That video was on main GMB news at 6am this morning on ITV ! If you watch right to the end though it shows what they think was an even lower entry from an Italian carrier in 2013
-
I did laugh reading this over the Skiathos low landings in Greece..... I went there in 2015 with one of my own lads and we stood at the end of the runway by the water one afternoon.....stand on me its makes the low landing and jet wash blasts at St Maarten in the Caribbean seem like a nursey outing in comparison Watch and enjoy the bystanders shit themselves..... After first part watch it from 1.30 for side view lol which is even more revealing how low the motor was
-
Ouch.....Qatar just lost its no claims bonus

-
I thought fares would be be coming down on that November month long trip as more airlines come back online. The Fuel issue despite what many claim is not the sole reason and Avgas is hedged typically a year in advance Fares have stayed high to say the least with transit times obscene because of lack of seats/flights Eva is coming out cheapest virtually every time astonishing for a non stop trip when traditionally they were always more expensive

Some People Paying Mad rents for Small Condos
Rawhide2 replied to Pine Tree's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Couldnt agree more sinbin I rent out both bedrooms to lodgers again after 2 years with only 1 room rented to a Police guy who recently left Both now occupied again and I charge cheap rents and pick and choose who comes in......tax free for first £7500 annual as well money for old rope it really is -
Yes I can find Eva for cheaper than I spoke about in post above Can get it for £587 elsewhere which is hardly much higher than pre covid
-
Have just run those original dates again and just the two "cheapest" fares have screenshotted using same agent Travel Trolley Gulf unless you're a glutton for punishment because of the inbound transit is useless and 2nd cheapest Cathay is a long routing especially coming home having done it twice one way in the 90's Eva was 3rd cheapest at £644
-
For the life of me I cant recall the guys name as my grandmothers and mothers dementia is clearly filtering down to myself likewise. I'd kindly ask the thread is left on this more prominent main sub forum for a few days and hopefully he may see it He was known in Pattaya for renting quality Condos and had a nice portfolio including View Talay 2 Its quote possible that Covid effectively closed him down but his website produces this result Be grateful if anyone has perhaps an updated link ?? https://www.condopattaya-rent.com/
-
The only place I knew that you could "ask" and for the life me cant remember their trading name (had several branches) but one was upstairs in Tops on Pattaya Klang Open style of shop and from memory doubled as Travel agent Bloody dementia is killing me as it did my mother ! Edited lol...."YENGJIT"

This is one of those discussions over economyy/biz thats prompts big disagreements I could be a multi millionaire and still wouldn't travel Biz....(I would use Elite on Eva their premium economy but not biz or first) I just want to get from A to B safely......the thought of blowing £2k extra over economy to me is senseless. How come I have no problem in an economy seat at 1.90 and 107kg ? Down the years have had a few upgrades but still didnt sleep. In fact paying an extra £2k for Biz and then going to sleep is even more insane in my book I vividly recall one upgrade on Cathay Pacific in the 90's back to London and spent the whole flight amusing myself Then again say if you were only doing it once a year then I can understand people perhaps using Biz but if you were doing 6-7 trips a year economy every time
