QUOTE(ljf123 @ Feb 16 2017, 02:49 PM) 1. http://www.ais.co.th/travellersim/ thanks for the info !2. Taxi/Uber, 4 people one taxi perfect to travel around, But airport to hotel you might need bigger taxi if you got many luggage on the traveller SIM...if i take only 1 SIM card...can the phone be hotspot and share internet data amongst 4 phones ? |

QUOTE(Go_up @ Feb 18 2017, 01:29 PM) Yes. Even small road as soi, Uber able to reach your place. But during peak hours let say morning or evening, the road traffic will be very very Jam. So make sure u Don ffk Uber when they on the way to your place. Fast is 8min, slow is 20mins. So u got to wait QUOTE(Go_up @ Feb 18 2017, 01:30 PM) Yes u can. Depend On ur GB. If 1 people use 1gb maybe last days, but few people shares maybe hours then gone. So depend i see...but after the mentioned "max speed up to 2.5 Gb", i assume max speed is 4G ? and after 2.5 Gb the speed will reduced to 3G ?thanks again This post has been edited by lyc1982: Feb 18 2017, 11:24 PM |

QUOTE(zoakies @ Mar 13 2017, 11:49 AM) Yes!!! I always target these airlines throwing offer... Thai Airways or MAS... sometimes the fare is even cheaper than flying with AA... MAS timing not really nice...coming back to KLIA at 9pm...that means i have to stay overnight at hotel which will incur more cost to my trip before i fly back to sarawakAnyway, AA is crap la.. must add this add that... end price is not cheap also... i rather pay a bit more.. at least everything included and touch down in Suvarnabhumi Airport.. nearer to city |
