    thai airways for example, and that is what i will take,

    500 dollar or so compared to 400 for stops and shifting plane,

    best money ever spent

    To my knowledge they have made no such statement and the other airline Norwegian already stated that they will not resume any flights to asia.

    Are you sure the place is called "Farlang alley"? I can't find it on the map.

    Farang Alley was just opposite Central Plaza before it was extended. It was demolished almost 15 years ago and was a parking lot for Central Plaza before their extension.

  4. I am looking for recommendations of which 55" TV to buy online here in Thailand. I have been looking at Lazada but the choices of "searchfilters" is so limited that you get to many to choose from. What I am looking for is not to complicated, it will be used for cable-TV, looking at DVD's and maybe most important is having a Playstation connected which means good resolution and update speed. I do not really need any special Smart-TV functions.

    I successfully registered my Thailand Plus app.  The reference number was the 6 digit number they emailed you to access the COE website to check on your COE Application or to access your COE on the website.  The Code number was the number printed on the top left of you COE.  

    I have tried this but it does not seem to work for me. Do you enter the complete Code nr which in my case is STO0001234?

  6. I am not sure if it is the correct name but they certainly weave leaves together to build a nest. They are light brown to yellow and very agressive and I am sute that they can jump to attack you. I have been awayy a long time from my house and now I see plenty see several of there nests in a small garden plot we have. When I feel brave I have cut the nest down and thrown it over the wall (not to the neighbor) but there are plenty left and I am to afraid to venture inte the bushes to search for more nests.

     

    Does anyone have any bright ideas of how to get rid of them or make them move, they  are not wellcome here.

  7. Are there any busses that go directly from one or the other airports in Bangkok to Hua Hin? Since we are flying in to Bangkok and we have a choice of any of the airports, It would be nice to be able to catch a bus directly at the airport instead of having to go to Mochit or any other busdepot. Preferable a regular bus instead of minibus due to Covid.

     

    An alternative would be some kind of taxiservice. All answers are appreciated.

  8. You need two types of insurance. One is a general health insurance and if you can get a 90-day travel insurance it would probably do. Are you planning to stay on 90 days?

    Second you need to Covid-insurance that specifically covers up to US 100.000 for Covid related costs. This insurance you can buy online from Thai insurance companies. If you use Google you will find a list of these companies.

    Your travel insurance might cover Covid and in this case you do not need one extra insurance.

     

    Do not forget that the insurance must cover the whole period of stay!

  9. I am just now applying for the COE and since I have got an Non-Imm O visa I bought insurance for 90 days. However I also enclosed an airline ticket showing a return trip after 10 months. My COE was denied on the grounds that my insurance must cover the whole period of stay. The options I was given was to change airline ticket or the insured period.

     

    The big question which I like to have an answer to is if I should travel en a one-way ticket, what insurance cover would they ask for? One year?

  10. All Craiglists stopped their Personals like M4W and W4M etc last year but uptill recently you could still find some of them hidden here and there in the Craiglist Thailand. Now they seem to be totally gone. My question is where do these people, men, women and everything inbetween advertise now?

     

    Just asking for a friend.

     

  11. There are several Facebook groups for Swedish people in Thailand, biggest one is "Svenskar i Thailand" and there are several other ones for Thailand in general and various local groups. If he cannot find one for Roy-et my tip for him is to start a new FB-group called Scandinavians in Roy-et.

  12. I live in Thailand but regularly take long trips of a month or more to other countries. I have a pick-up and an MC Honda Click. When I started travelling I noticed that the Honda was very difficult to get started after standing still a long time. I tried to understand why and came to the conclusion that the fuel was to blame. Obviously Gasohol should not be left in a tank for longer periods as it will sort of deteriorate. Solution was to switch to Benzene. Since I switched to Benzene I have had no more problems starting the bike even if it has been standing idle for more than a month.

     

    And now my question: I plan to sell my diesel Pick-up, which has no problem being left idle for long periods. Insted l will switch to a regular smaller car and they all seem to drive on Gasohol so of course i am a bit worried. Will I have the same problems with a car fueled with Gasohol, as I had with my MC, if left idle for long periods of time? Since Benzene sometimes is hard to come buy I do not fancy driving my car on that, not to mention the difference in price.

  13. I am planning for a couple of days in Bangkok and this time I will try to use the BTS. There seems to be a one-day pass that works the whole day of issue, why not for 24 hours? I will probably choose between the Smart Pass and the Rabbit Card. When it comes to travel I think they are the same or are there any differences that I have not noticed. 

    Any advice out there of which card to choose?

  14. This link from the South African Immigration is quite good in showing what you might need when travelling with kids. Both me and my wife have been questioned when travelling alone with one of our kids. https://www.nwivisas.com/nwi-blog/south-africa/new-immigration-regulations-for-parents-travelling-with-kids/

     

    Regarding passports you show both at check-in but only the Thai one when passing the Immigration at Suvarnabhumi and then the Danish one at Kastrup.
