  1. Always wise to book directly with the airlines. Using 3rd party travel sights makes changes to an itinerary much more difficult.
  2. I like how you put the links under like this /or this. How do you do that?
  3. I certainly enjoy a few day's in Khon-kaen. Nice stopover on the way to Bangkok from Northern Sakon Nakhon.
  4. Nice. Is that the same as other bordering countries?
  5. Usually after 4:00 pm when the police have gone and rarely no checkpoints. I'm guilty of this.
  6. I always enjoy the energy in an airport and having a smartphone, time fly's. That's just my experience, for other's, mileage may vary.
  7. Cutting it close. It's really busy now and on recent flight on Thai Smile they weren't very happy showing up 45 minutes before departure (Udon Thani). If it's Air Asia 1.5 hours would be fair. They've got very little staff for check-in in my recent flights with them. Infuriating.
  8. I've installed Windows 11. However, barely use a laptop now with my Samsung Ultra 22 phone more than capable and convenient than a laptop. Laptop is convenient for watching Videos in a pinch though.
  9. ....And it's now open during the day time, albeit a little limited compared to the evenings.
  10. Can you use those once a year? ....Or is it one time exemption per wife?
  11. Perhaps stop playing the morality ticket and get your visa done. Corruption is so ingrained here that your trying to make things done the right way will only cause you grief. After that donate to some worthy cause if it makes you feel better.
  12. It's torn up or have they finally put something nice along the banks of the Meekong? It's been 6 years since I was there but it seemed pretty dilapidated back then. Nice report.
  13. Why not just use Spotify. Paid version you can make unlimited lists. Great app. Especially cheap for the paid version in Thailand 129 baht a month.
  14. Fires raging all around our village and beyond. Filthy acrid air. It's everywhere every year. Nothing new.
  15. There in lies the problem. Taxes are way too high for the regular person to buy a new truck or car here. They have to rely on riding scooters, rain or shine. Dangerous!
  16. Hopefully deter some visitors. It's packed.
  17. Up here in the Northeast Thais burn everything including plastic. It's as common as taking a dump. Only so much the government can do when 70 + million people have no qualms burning anything, anytime. Also the other countries surrounding Thailand are even burning more than Thailand. Depressing time of year really.
  18. Definitely. Very invasive add indeed!
  19. Underwhelming response to a mountain completely engulfed in flames. Rains will inevitably bring mudslides and debris flows. Thailand loves to burn anything and everything. Odd.
  20. It is. They guarantee the loan if the car owners do a runner. They are liable for the payments.
  21. Let em pack them in. If there's an accident it doesn't really matter how many are in the back. Better if they lower the extortionate taxes on buying a vehicle making them more affordable for the common Thai person.
