Looks like a Hermes bag so probably cost a fortune.

Cant believe they charge 30% on belts !

Don’t understand why he took so little unless he owed around a million bht to someone . Would have taken him 10 seconds to empty about 10 display trays into a bag .

What a load of tosh. Fly into the UK, UK citizen or not, and go to your nearest hospital emergency department and you will be treated free of charge. Them's the rules.

Pretty sure that’s not the case and most hospitals require you to bring a passport or similar to prove you are a uk resident now as they had so many people returning from abroad just for free treatment.

I went to the uk last June for 10 months and it took me 3 weeks just to get registered at a local Gp surgery in the area I was in .

Is your friend 'no hold luggage at all' because of a comment on the booking site? Or has your friend enquired further to check if check-in luggage Kgs can be purchased?

He is flying a different route now , so I’m guessing was put off by the comment on the site  . He was landing in roi et which is about 50km from where wife stays . Now is flying to khon kaen as far as I’m aware and it’s about 120km away. Not asked him who new flight is with yet.

That’s strange as the allow you to purchase up to 40kg in the website 

Yeah I just looked and at the start it says this is a no checked baggage flight , yet when you go through it the site shows what is in your photo . ????

Well they better hurry up and figure out how to get these people to come here !

My mate flew to Bkk from Heathrow yesterday with a hour stop in Phuket . There was a total of 30 people in economy and half got off in Phuket. 
Maybe business class and first class were packed with all the rich tourists the country want , but I highly doubt it ! ????????

So strange but true.

Are they lacking baggage handlers at DMK or ROI?

Due to flightstats it's an A320! (not a Cessna Piper )

Not sure . There was only one flight on days I looked but usually there are three per day . I guessed it was to save costs as probably got rid of staff . But I thought the staff doing the loading etc would be employed by the airport and not the airline .

In the past I think Air Asia had a 15kg limit but you could purchase a higher weight limit. He wasn't allowed to purchase a higher limit?

No , upon booking it said no hold luggage allowed. Not sure if was just to this destination from Bkk or all their flights.

My friend arrived in Bkk today and will be flying to roi et tomorrow with Air Asia. He is only allowed 7kg carry on and no hold luggage at all . 

Nothing to do with getting infected , more like they have no hope left after this government has left them jobless , broke and demoralised !!

Booze - yes thanks. Many restaurants can serve alcohol legally as part of the Samui Plus deal.

The others - come and find out.

No need as I live here ????

But how will they sell booze at new year if restaurants are meant to close by 11pm and bars are shut . Lot of special extensions to be given out for late night serving . 

Can we have a boxing match between this guy and the Dr with the alphabet after his name that said drink is a covid magnet !!

Winner takes all and gets to decide the fate of bars and clubs !! ????????

Wonder if he is actually qualified to be in his position like anutin !

So covid can tell if you are drinking alcohol be it at home , restaurant , bar or nightclub ? If so why not just ban sales of it all together if it’s that bad according to this genius !

If I take a boat out into the middle of the sea alone and open a beer will the deadly covid come find me ? ????????

Temples.

They have fireworks and booze ? ????

So what are all these people going to do at new year when all the restaurants should be shut by midnight and bars are all closed ? ????

B20bn loan !! Yet still the truck drivers don’t get the price anywhere near what they wanted , so what is the B20 bn actually going to do ?

Will make zero difference to truck drivers who will basically still be paying around 30 bht a litre .

I foresee some Mercedes dealerships getting an influx of orders for new S class cars .

Taxes ? What are they for ?

Government tax or something, it’s about 180,000 bht or so .

I do not understand the Thai lottery/s . I believe there are 2 . One is official and the other unlawful . Has a farang ever won the jackpot and lived to tell the tale ?

As far as I remember there have been one or two that won the jackpot but that was only one ticket at 6 million bht minus taxes. Not like Thais that buy 3, 5 ,10 of the same number.

Really! It has been brought up a number of times here how alcohol changes people's behaviour and is likely to increase Covid spread, far more than a plate of Som Tam or pate and toast. 

Funny as I was in a bar/ restaurant last week and hardly anyone was eating but everyone was drinking alcohol and I didn’t notice people running around hugging each other and breathing in each other’s face ! 
Although it did have a breeze from the sea blowing all the way through the building , nobody was wearing a mask in the place and nobody has covid from being there as far as I’m aware . ????

One of the required safety measures is that venues must improve their environment and air circulation system and that all staff are fully inoculated against COVID-19.

So how do all the beach bars in Phuket , samui etc improve on air circulation in a bar that basically has no walls and is an open air venue ?

Could never figure out why these places were not allowed to open as you would be more likely to get covid in an enclosed restaurant than one of these bars !
