probably is because...

- me go in december, peak peak peak, super peak season!!!
- 3 of us sharing one room
- maybe you're leng zai, so got discount

(run before kena beat)

oh the Songkran Festival (mid April)

be prepared to get wet

double checking,

LCCT to BKK, takes about 55 min to fly, right?

ahhh i will be on board alone, so gonna make sure that.

ah i got it, BKK is 1-hour slower than us.

thanks hellokitty82!

i'll be meeting up my friends at the Suvarnabhumi airport
they're flying from vietnam to bkk
while me fly from malaysia to bkk

wow interesting review

okay so the Suvarnabhumi Airport is pronounced as "Sue-wanna-Poom"

that gal in the last photo is your mistress ya? hehe.

ahem, how come there isn't much discussion on BKK's red light district

according to friend's experience, the so-called "Tiger Show" is pretty boring, entry fees are around Bath1,000 for 2 person (inclusive of 2 sucky drinks), the LIVE show is nothing special, maybe is something different, eye-opener lor since it is prohibited in Malaysia.

i think, i shall exclude that from our BKK itinerary
ohyah, we wanna experience their night life, clubbings and pretty "gals" (can touch boobs ka? kekekek)

p/s: blinky, your BKK reviews are useful for me to plan my itinerary~!

news update of Bangkok condition, may refer here:
http://www.bangkokpost.com/News/index.php

stimix is right, don't cancel your flight first, see how things go.
logon to AA website and check again for announcement on your departure day

if AA cancel the flight = they'll refund you
if you cancel your flight now = you will get nothing

i booked my room via atsiam.com
and they're aware of the thailand condition now

here's a reply from them,

Thank you for your question. Hotel informed that if the situation on 3 Dec 08 is not better and still have a problem like last night or your flight will be cancel urgently, they understandand and not charge you. However, we will charge you only 5% for the transfer fee of the refundnable.

check this,
http://www.airasia.com/site/my/en/page.jsp...=airportclosure

apparently, AA is not going to refund us, but they give us a 3-days credit shell, which means,

if 1st Dec if your departure day, and BKK airport is still closed,
you're given a 3-days credit shell,
by 4th Dec, you may fly to BKK (provided the airport is reopen).

*you can't change your destination, WTH...

b00n, is your bro taking MAS or AA?

Okay some latest news on Bangkok airport:

Authorities have officially declared Suvarnabhumi airport closed until Saturday at 6pm at the earliest.
