    Personally I always fly either EVA or Singapore to the US.  They both have very nice business class and premium economy.  I don't do economy that far anymore.   Also, the transit airports for both those are nice and easy-- never any lines at security.

     

    For me jet lag is always worse when arriving in the US.

    Well if you fly that way to New York you're going to get the worst jet laggy ever can get. Definitely don't go over the Pacific when flying to New York.

    Outright fraud! Due to the weak Thai legal system the real estate company beleves and, most probably, still beleives they can walk off into the sunset with the money. Selected a foreigner as a soft target who plays by the rules. Doubt if the company would select a "connected hi-so Thai" who knows the legal system and how to work outside the system, if you know what I mean.

    Yes it takes 1,500 people and 3 and 1/2 to 4 years for the DSi just to finally submit the case over to the prosecution.

    as much as I am surprised and probably others too, so far those tariffs seem to be working as both Mexico and Canada while expressing their promises to counter "tariff" they appear to be making some initial efforts to respond positively to methods to help stop the practices at the border.  Same with Colombia one the immigrants, and Panama on the Agreement with CHina about the canal use.  I don't agree with everything that Trump promises to do but much better than Biden and Co.

    Well I hope Canada keeps sending their fentanyl that they don't want to the state maybe next year will be 30 kilos

    I’ve been using WISE transfers monthly for the past two years during my retirement without issue, transferring money from my USA bank account to my K bank account. 
    I tried the normal WISE transfer yesterday and there was a red notice that I had to update my information. So I went in and saw that all was ok with my information and tried to continue. Again I was denied and called the WISE people who told me that I now need a physical address in the USA and that it cannot be a “mailbox”. I asked about who was behind this regulation and they sent me an email that the “Financial Crime Enforcement Network (FCEN) was behind this new requirement.


    My concern as a US Citizen is the “whats next” question?

    Are they working on cancellation of overseas living or retirement? Will they cancel my Citizenship and therefore my Social Security because I don’t own a home in the US anymore? Quite disturbing activity by the powers involved…

     

    Any other folks out there having this problem?

     

    Cheers!

    More tariffs more inflammation job losses. More of a freak show in your White House

    May I confirm that if I take my thai phone overseas and connect it to the hotel wifi then I can use the KTB app on my thai phone? Im in the same situation as OP. I have the ktb travel card and ktb account. But I also have a KTC credit card. therefore its useful to use the app overseas. thanks

    Just need wifi. Why do you need the app abroad except for transferring you use your card touch and go. How do you have a KTB travel card I thought it's only for Thai Nationals.
