In 2010 Google flights bought the ITA software (Ita Matrix was used by travel agents) https://upgradedpoints.com/travel/ita-matrix/

Why? It was a reply to Bangkok Hank who says he lives near Suvarnabhumi. If you live near the airport you might come under Immigration at Samut Prakan where you can get a re-entry permit. RAZZ

Seen a few posts on Facebook about Tyson Fury visiting Phuket and Bangkok. Anyone know any more information? Best regards RAZZ

No you're not! Who are you flying with? Eg on Thai Airways you can get a return valid up to nearly a year and can then change the date at will. Best option is to book a cheap single to a neighbouring country for about £50. RAZZ

Mate stayed at Movenpick this weekend - looked very nice. Club lounge and food looked excellent. RAZZ

Last time I looked the Millennium Hilton was in Bangkok not Pattaya ???? The Inter in Bkk had a great Club Lounge - just before "Cut off" time they came around and made me about 3 cocktails for later! RAZZ

Only going for one night - made a mistake it's 2.6 for a normal room and about 4.6k for a Club room, with breakfast, afternoon tea and evening cocktails. I don't know of many hotels that have Club Lounges in Pattaya. The Movenpick does, but on the We Travel Together scheme - you get the food but not the booze. Any other Hotel Club Lounges in Pattaya? Hilton? RAZZ

Has anyone recently stayed at the Intercontinental Pattaya? There are some great deals with Club Lounge access if you book using "We Travel Together" - starting at around 2800 baht. The free food and booze will "pay" for the room ???? RAZZ

Takes about 1 hour 45 minutes. Done it 4 times in the last month or so. I would definitely book in advance and take the 7am bus. RAZZ

OP - you're making a drama out of nothing. 1) Get a new Thai passport - achievable in a day. 2) Book an appointment online for a new British passport to replace the one which is about to expire - again can be done in a day. In my experience book the earliest available time as the appointments get run later and later as the day goes on. Go early, walk about see the sites (if you go to London) have a nice lunch then collect the passport in the late afternoon. When leaving the UK all your daughter needs is her valid Thai passport.

They are still recruiting in Thailand with interviews in Bangkok. https://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/cabin-crew/ RAZZ

As has been mentioned the Service is "free" - but you pay for the parts - eg oil, air filter etc. Mrs has a Yaris - I don't think the build quality is all that great and the paint certainly chips pretty easily. However, i will definitely look at the new 2023 Fortuner which will be built on a new platform. Hopefully, Toyota will improve the overall tech. RAZZ

Anymore information about this? https://asia.nikkei.com/Economy/Thailand-to-introduce-10-year-visa-for-skilled-workers-investors2 https://home.kpmg/xx/en/home/insights/2022/06/flash-alert-2022-127.html RAZZ

Went into another dealer a couple of days ago. You could buy the 60th anniversary Yaris there and then. RAZZ

They have several branches. Try Siam Paragon and Emporium. RAZZ

He's not a photographer...he's just a man with a bag of cameras. RAZZ

Went to a Toyota dealer yesterday and this is what I was told. Smaller cars like Yaris, 1 month, pickups 2 months, Fortuner 3 months. RAZZ

You can get a re-entry permit at Samut Prakan Immigration. Make sure you go to the new office. It's on the first floor. I'd always advise to go early as it's a pain when they close between 12-1. https://www.richardbarrow.com/2021/09/103947884/ RAZZ

I would definitely think about upgrading to a "Club Room". You used to get free booze (beer) all day, canapes, snacks and cocktails at lunch/evening. I was in there recently (a month or so ago) and the lounge was not open...the "club benefits" were available in the lobby. Worth thinking about if the Club Lounge is now open. EDIT - To be honest the rooftop is too busy, expensive and not worth the money. I remember ordering a bottle of red for about £200 and it arrived practically straight out of the freezer! Got them to take it back and warm it up. Ended up tasting like Gluhwein! The bar one floor down is much better. RAZZ

Many thanks, just same process as before? RAZZ

How do I change back? Do I have to leave Thailand and get another marriage "O"? Or can I do it "in country"? RAZZ

For a few years I was on "O" marriage extensions and then this year I went to a retirement. If I wanted to start a company/get a WP etc how would I go about getting these or an "O" married to a Thai wife extension? Best regards RAZZ

Have Pm'd you. RAZZ

Why don't you post some pics? Location? This forum is full of millionaires ???? RAZZ

Actually well done Adam and TPN - seem you beat the other news outlets by a good couple of hours. RAZZ
