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.

Highly recommended...LIVE streams from Heathrow
Rawhide2 replied to Rawhide2's topic in Airline Discussion
Lol I suspect he was minted before but clearly he is now ! He's been on every channel since Storm Eunice... -

Gotta laugh at Jerry Dyers comments just brilliant Amazing that the Captain has only one hand on the column (I appreciate the reason why) -
Highly recommended...LIVE streams from Heathrow

Dear oh dear lol -
Strange because although the choice is still limited the cheap fares never really went away out of the UK.....I just very quickly did a check on a Gulf air flight which I'd done for a friend previously leaving next Thursday for a month and still only £340 (same as a month ago)

Jerry Dyer the new internet sensation lol after Storm Eunice I did have a giggle yesterday seeing him interviewed on many channels and recalling several comments on this thread who had a pop last year Had 225,000 live viewing his streaming which was also carried Live by Sky News during the day (as a side screen) from Heathrow -
Medical insurance for expats, both Thailand and your home country
Rawhide2 replied to Ready2Retire's topic in Expat Issues
At the risk of getting another 2 red marks (I know who is doing it rest assured) I still cant see the logic of self insurance because of the 3 biggies I mentioned before Stroke Heart attack or Trauma Especially if you're single just tell me who is going to access your "nest egg" when you're in a Coma ?? ICU's are mega expensive no matter what country you are in. 1 Million baht stashed will not last very long As someone who has had cancer (and using it as an example ) if I suddenly started pissing blood again I know the reason. Pack your bags straight to airport and 1 way trip home us -
Obviously to spite me via Travel Trolley there they are lol Quick connections both ways Only 45 minutes outbound
-
Yeah few guys on Legends Group put up Lufthansa at £342 out of the UK with standard connections Never flown them personally and never seem to come up on Travel Trolley at the lower end of the prices....someone years ago said the seats were tight in economy. Could well have changed
-
Moving date forward to month of May which has always been the chepest out of the UK along with June and the Turks come up nicely with good baggage allowance.....there were prices from £368 with other carriers but no bags included Only flew them once think it was 2001 and had by son who would have been roughly 6 months old. Remember well the crew fussed over him on both flights
-
Cheapies are still about. Another BM here had expressed interest in the dates on screenshot. Yep I acknowledge the inbound transit is longer than normal but these are really low fares. I've been on Gulfs Dreamliners and they're very nice albeit Bahrain airport was pretty dismal.....if you can pick up wifi though time would go relatively quickly
-
How anyone could fly on Thai international currently would be beyond me Maintenance screams at me. Mai pen rai shouts Somchai as his Yamaha bike spanners dont fit
-
Thai International is still the highest fare I've ever paid in Economy of any airline....£540 in.....1995 !!
-
I've literally 5 minutes ago sent £281 gross purely profit from Crypto in last 24 hours As I've clicked "I've sent the money" (To Wise) the email notification of money sent back out was instant. 10 seconds later by the time I've logged into app the cash was already in Thai bank (Edited to add I used medical expenses for reason for sending just to see what happened ! )
-
Good example of Sterling being virtually identical to the landing rate of Transferwise (45.27)
-
Some of you may have seen the press releases over the recent near catastrophic crash of a Emirates 777 at Dubai Whilst its going to be months before hard details are released Emirates because of a notification to all subsequent flight crews already know what happened For me whats even worse was flying at 75 feet above Dubai rooftops for what appears some period of time subsequently Automation at its absolute worst. They were 130 KMS over rotation speed when they finally decided it might be good idea to lift off !
-
Hotel that we always use is always cheaper using its own website rather than Agoda and all the rest Always......and why wouldnt it be when the likes of booking sites take their commission. Hotel website or emailing them direct....always
-
This was a sample one I did before....Premium Economy
-
Yes I had look at that before and priced it up using their equivalent of premium economy and included all the extras to get true reflection Was a good £300 less (return) than Eva's Elite Class
-
I note this morning British Airways have ditched Hong Kong for now because flights crew testing positive had to go into state quarantine ! Unsurprisingly BA said fook that for a game of soldiers
-
Real dearth of airlines flying London Bangkok.....Travel Trolley pre Covid would have page after page in ascending order of price but struggling to fill even one normal page Turkish seem the best bet currently taking into account price, seat pitch, baggage allowance (very generous 30kg) and transit times plus they are part of Star alliance Prices rising as well in economy for sure Did an additional search London to Manila and the prices are beyond eye watering. I actually thought initially I must have clicked business class only
-
Flown then using Travel Trolley as the agent (as per all the screenshots) No problem whatsover the only thing I thought Bahrain airport was pretty piss poor albeit hardly matters if you're only in transit for couple hours
-
I've just rerun a set of dates for next year and what is glaringly obvious is airlines have taken the opportunity to remove inclusive luggage completely or heavily reduce existing allowances Not all I will add before someone says mine hasn't but big changes to many
-
Just raised the topic on Legends group. Could be a game changer providing additional non stop options https://www.nationthailand.com/business/40008744?fbclid=IwAR1mXd0-9L1k1z3RDl8diXoKFEIHmZ5KigfGin0iQAFlRNm7iDBAs14mmUE The booking website is live and I did the month of June to include 20kg bag each way at £387 return Its likely they use their long haul version of their Dreamliner with 34" pitch in Economy and 36" in premium economy.....had a look on seat guru as they do have another version of their Dreamliner with only 31" pitch but am surmising thats short haul only perhaps
-
Frankly it doesn't matter what version of aircraft you're on its all about the seat pitch if you're in economy (and avoiding those AVOD boxes) Biz I guess as I'm sure you are using seems to offer the biggest style of seat layouts though and I guess pitch isn't an issue Several decent vloggers on youtube (very decent) including Josh Cahill, Noel Phillips and Sam Chui who frequently highlight them. Cahill can be brutal at times with airline reviews
