One more question. Do I have to do the extention in Bangkok or can I go to any other immigration in the country?

Thank you Dr Jack54 and Chivas for your replies. To sum up, I coud have got it cheaper, however, I will be fine and they will take me on the plane and let me in the country, right ???? ? Cheers!

Hey all, hopefully you guys can help me here and give me some advice and share your experiences! I have a ticket from Zurich to BKK on 31st of July and a return flight on 7th Septmeber. I will be staying for more than 30 days, which I would be allowed to stay with a visa on arrival on a German passport. I called my embassy to check what options I have. They advised me to either get a tourist visa or to a flight out of Thailand to show a the immigration. Later, I could get an extemtion on my arrival visa. OK so far... I decided to get a ticket to Vientianne that shows that I will be leaving Thailand after about 3 weeks. Since I have had some nasty surprises when it came to airlines not taking me on board because I had no return or onward ticket, I wanted to make sure that all my travel documents are in order and that there will be no prblems checking in and entering Thailand. However, Thai Airways is giving me a hard time and they refuse to confirm that they would take me on board. They tell me to contact immigration and the website I bought the ticket from. Fact is, they will be resposible to take my along and dedicing if travel documents are in order is their daily business. I am a bit worried that they won't take me on board... Quick summary: Gemran Passport Flight booked in and out of Thailand (37 days os stay in total), flight form Don muaeng to Vietianne after 3 weeks of being in Thailand. What is your experience these days with Thai Airways and do I worry for no reason? Is the information concerning the extemption of the visa on arrivel valid? How many days of stay would I get if I returned from Laos to Thailand over land? Thank you very much in advance! Manis
