any body been to rayong or chanchaburi. is it like pattaya
yogi yogi replied to yogi yogi's topic in Central Thailand
rott i know nothing about pattaya except for the numerous stories of lady boys etc . robberies etc. over the years. the thai govt knows full well pattaya has an image problem . im not defaming it , u know thier are a large segment of people that read and see reports of pattaya and do not want to visit based on press reports -

its not a secret that pattaya has had some bad press. im only commenting on the press ive been reading. im sure thier is a good part of pattaya. as well. even the thai govt. has mentioned that they are trying to clean up the image of pattaya? this is no secret. i have nothing against the place, i dont drink and i dont go to go go bars. and im not really interested in seeing drunk farang -
to be honest air asia aint a bad airline. they started to get more lax on carry on. i think because policing it got to be too much. but i can warn you if you carry sports equip for the cheaper rate. beware. they xray it to make sure its sports equipment and if it aint. u get stuck with day of departure price for luggage. gotcha!

Any thoughts on this CoE situation ?
yogi yogi replied to TorquayFan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
to be honest im wondering if the coe might actually be easier than the travel pass. at least with coe u can get a human to help push it thru. the travel pass is totally a computer program . no human is involved? if a problem occurs with travel pass . you will permanently be on under consideration -

why do thai pickups have no rear bumper? i never got that one. arent bumpers protecting occupants from death in a crash? -
i dont think they work sundays on phone, u need a phone call with them. the guy that did mine today really wanted to help. this monday they will be staffed to the hilt, call first thing monday u will get it if you have your hotel totally ready with confirmation , etc . consulate wants to see your hotel info. so you dont leave airport on your own

what consulate u using. if in states they have a consulate for each state u supposed to use. it would not suprise me if one used the wrong consulate , they might not be responsive as each consulate covers certain states. that is number one. i just got my coe today. i begged him and magically i got approved. presto it just showed up in my in box. print it off and you are ready to go. so secondly if you have monday , u can do this!!!!! find out what time your consulate is opening and select the option on phone every thing else . not the visa option on phone. call the nuumber right now to hear those options. my situation was that i wasnt hearing back either., when i called chicago today they said that thai authorities had tagged my vacc card for some reason, the nice rep on phone somehow over rided it. and i got my coe . in a matter of minutes. thirdly your assumption that they dont answer the phone is totally wrong. if u want this done on monday first thing . u phone them first thing ...............i do not agree that they dont answer . i phoned chicago about 5 times today get my pre approval figured out and they answered every time. so u are wrong about that. my guess is that u are missing some document on your form. now to get it done on monday u need to have your hotel quarantine thing fully completed. and apparenty a certificate from hotel sent to your email, the rep on phone at consulate can help u figure where to put on form. in my case i think the rep allowed the coe without the form as i had a reservation and he believed me. i really beleive the consulates have power to fudge the rules a little if they think they are dealing with a responsible person on other end of phone. to get it done on monday you have to have your duckss in a row before you call. if you have to try to submit a new registration right now. rememver for final approval u need that hotel confirmation letter from hotel.

air asia was successful at beginning of pandemic in not giving refunds on air tickets but gave air credits. first good for a year and then i think they extended them to two years now. i wonder if they gonna honor them now? secondly i heard air asia malaysia is only allowing fully vacced pax on flights. ? i wonder if that will affect thai air asia?
