Not as common as Muhammed (reference google): Muhammad has become the most popular baby name for boys in England and Wales for the first time, new data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has revealed. The name has been among the top 10 names for baby boys since 2016, but has now overtaken the previous favourite, Noah.4 days ago -

yes indeed. Syria's former President Bashar al-Assad is in Moscow with his family after Russia granted them asylum on humanitarian grounds, a Kremlin source told Russian news agencies on Sunday, and a deal has been done to ensure the safety of Russian military bases.

Grounded: Thai AirAsia denies ticket fraud, blames airline app
Burma Bill replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Interesting - thanks. With respect, why then do the airport wheelchair staff wear the red "Air Asia" ribbons around their necks to display their ID cards? This was the case recently at Siem Reap Angkor Airport, and Chiang Mai Airport. -

Grounded: Thai AirAsia denies ticket fraud, blames airline app
Burma Bill replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
For me, it has been very interesting reading posters comments about Air Asia, but sadly most not complimentary leaving customers upset, angry and annoyed. Personally, in this region, Air Asia is my favourite airline and I have never had problems with the airline (pre and post Covid) since it started domestic and international routes to/from Thailand and Cambodia (where I now live). I have always been able to book the flights I selected using Air Asia's website on my personal computer which is linked to an Epson Printer to get the necessary confirmation documents for "check-in". As I have stated elsewhere, never any problems paying for my tickets, first cash at 7-11 in Thailand, now my Visa debit card in Cambodia. As the years have progressed, I now have mobility problems and Air Asia's free wheelchair service is second to none IMO. When booking my flights, I tick the "unable to walk long distance" box. Air Asia's travel insurance is not an option for me due to my age and disability so does not appear on my booking form. Last month (November) I travelled from Siem Reap to Chiang Mai and back. Throughout, Air Asia excelled itself with wheelchairs for me at all the airports SAI, DMK and CNX all handled by efficient and caring ground staff. Even the cabin crews were helpful in assisting me to my seat. At DMK the airplane from SAI landed out on the tarmac and passengers were bussed to International Arrivals, however for me a hydraulic food trolley container truck (stock photo below) was waiting to move me via the galley door. A wheelchair with handler was inside the container and having been lowered to ground level I was then driven to Arrivals to join the other passengers (a first in my lifetime). At CNX the wheelchair service took me from Domestic Arrivals through to International Arrivals to claim my baggage from the hold, then return to Domestic Arrivals and a taxi into which I was helped by the wheelchair handler - wonderful assistance! On both return flights, my seat number was the same, upgraded free of charge to 5A throughout, (red window seat at front with legroom). So, Air Asia THANK YOU! I know many of you will say "what a load of BS" but these are MY experiences with Air Asia and long may they continue. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. -
