What you see at a hotel's website is a bit irrelevant. It is up to individual hotels if they wish to participate. Hotels leave and join the scheme all the time. There is different booking arrangements, some can only be booked via the WTT app, others via Agoda and some direct. The most annoying are those that have decided to leave but not delisted.

On the basis they are talking arrivals then they should have said "passenger arrival terminal" . Concourse D is the main drag in the "departure terminal" with the "arrival terminal" on a lower level. I don't think it is directly below departures and they may be referring to space adjacent to arrivals underneath Concourse D.

This is the Government initiative that was introduced in 2020 to promote domestic tourism. Nothing to do with the hotel, the government is providing the 40% discount on the price and you also get vouchers towards other expenses. The booking must be made by a Thai national but others can be included, to date I have had 17 nights away under the scheme.

In the Land of Stupid live people that think Disease Control checkpoints are after entry to the country. Just because some people think they have a god given right to tell other nations how to behave, it is not in fact a reality.

We went across the Nong Khai border a few years back. My wife had her 2 nieces with her and one didn't have a passport so all 3 of them got the temporary pass. Took ages for them to get through, much slower than me. We had taken the bus from Nong Khai to Vientiane and I had a bit of a job getting the bus to wait for them. Been an awful lot quicker when she has used her passport.

One can only assume that the term "statistician" is outside your vocabulary.

It is a bit the same for a marriage visa, the wife has to confirm you will staying. I do not know about NZ but the UK say all docs should be in English and a friend of mine said he was a bit concerned about his wife's English. I said she should just try it in Thai, so she wrote out a short note saying he was expected between certain dates with address and phone number at the top. Took a photo on her phone and sent it to him with Messenger. Embassy accepted it without question.

Global House have a few chainsaws under 3000 baht. A much safer option than buying online.

When Swampy opened they never moved the machines. When you were queuing up at check-in to check-out there were people going down the line selling the 500 baht tickets. If you didn't have the right money you had to get out of the queue and pay, absolute chaos and a nighmare for those with no Baht left. Got me to the front of the queue quite quickly though, became part of your flight ticket shortly after.

Charges from my UK flight last year via Dubai.. Taxes / Fees / Charges (TFC) THB70.00-E7(Thailand Advance Passenger Processing Charge) THB30.00-G8(Thailand International Arrival/Departure Fee) THB700.00-TS(Thailand Passenger Service Charge) THB100.00-ZR(UAE Intl Advanced Passenger Info Fee Arrivals & Departures) THB680.00-F6(UAE Passenger Facilities Charge) THB12210.00-YQ(Fuel Surcharge) THB815.00-UB(UK Passenger Service Charge) THB3890.00-GB(UK Air Passenger Duty)

That is now 700 THB and is the Passenger Service Charge. Thailand will probably cancel it as soon as every other country does. Over and above the PSC the UK charge Air Passenger Duty which is from around 4500 THB upwards depending on the type of seat you have. Of coarse on the this forum only Thailand are seen as money grabbing parasites. If you can't stand the heat, the kitchen has a door. This is your post isn't??? you write that Thailan will cancel it as soon as other countries do... Yes that is what I said, but it was tongue in cheek, didn't anticipate anyone ever contemplating that might happen, apologies if you were led to believe it was a realistic possibility. "dream on... Thailand will never cancel the 700 THB PSC"

You would have to show me where I said they would. The only dreaming is what people think they see in posts, the actual content going over their heads..

The post you responded to could have been worded a bit better, so your response didn't look rediculous. You cannot apply for an E-visa to enter Thailand if you are in Thailand You can apply for an E-visa from any country on the E-visa platform if you have a valid right to be in the country concerned, that wouldn't include short term visitors. Is it not the case if you apply for a visa to enter any country using the standard paper method you have to be physically located in the country where you make the application.

You cannot relate prices in government hospitals to the private sector. It is customary in Thailand for ambulance drivers to take a foreigner to a private hospital and a Thai to a government hospital unless told otherwise. A friend of mine was on holiday on Koh Larne with the family when the father in law suffered a head injury. The ambulance initially took him to Naklua, nearest at the time, who shook their heads and sent him to Chonburi. By the time he got there it was too late to do anything and died shortly after. My friend and his wife were quite upset when they found out the ambulance had driven past several private hospitals.

Exactly, and several factors can come into play, Many think it is great to fly about in shorts and a tee shirt with the helmet hanging from the handlebars. I knew a guy that burnt his leg quite badly just parking the bike. Some years ago I was at the old Malibu bar and a guy on the other side got off his stool, climbed on a big bike and set off on 2nd road, the wrong way. If it wasn't for the quick thinking of the bar girls he would probably have ended up in a similar position. The warnings are there for a reason.

You need to be aware that one condo in a condo block requires a hotel licence. The minimum room level for a hotel licence does not apply to condos. A court ruling declared all rooms in the building need to be taken into account.

No big deal. I had never heard of the app, always used street view from within maps. From what I can see that is what Google would prefer. In this current cost cutting environment why have multiple versions of the same thing.

Only one thing relevant. Was Thailand placed 10th in the index ,or not?

The UK has been taking biometrics for visa applications for many years. In fact I have been to Bangkok today with my wife to submit hers, required every application. The EU collect biometrics every 5 years. I wonder what people on here would say if Thailand started collecting biometrics for visa applications. Hold on, the term "racist" comes to mind.

I wouldn't notice anything about a place I never go.

And that can vary in the same office. I have had 5 home visits now and no two have been the same. Last one was in Nov and just one guy turned up, instead of the usual three. He had brought a tripod and just took a few photos that included himself and left.

There is a healthcare surcharge on most visas to the UK including student which was probably the case. Tourist visas are at their own expense.

If you are from eligible country you can get 15 days visa exempt into Vietnam and a nicer experience. Only problem comes if you need to go to the consulate.
