I've been away for too long and my Thai sim card has expired. Flying in in a couple of weeks and need long term internet, 6 months or longer. I will be using my phone as a hotspot when in my residence. I see two issues, 1 being that I need a phone as soon as I get in, and the other is the long term unlimited. Should I pick up a tourist sim at the airport and then order an additional sim on lazada or elsewhere, or can I get a reasonably priced unlimited sim at the airport? From what I've seen the lazada prices are much better than the airport prices. Please correct me if this is wrong. Thanks in advance for any insights.

Lightyears are a measure of distance, not time. Reminds me of Hans Solo in starwars when he said he did the run from xxxx to yyyy in zzz parsecs. Parsecs are distance too. They must have done it to show Hans wasn't so bright.

Just took a look at the first 2 episodes of Shantaram which recently dropped. Looked like it might be a bit cheesy but I'm quite impressed so far. Almost feels like you're watching a movie. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0429087 A heroin addict incarcerated for a robbery escapes prison and reinvents himself as a doctor in the slums of Bombay; his ties to the crime underworld there lead him to Afghanistan, where he partners with a mob boss locked in a battle with Russian criminals.

Sorry, no lineup for business class. You're still 9n the back of the bus?

You missed my point. I don't care if it's the cheapest onward flight, as it will be canceled shortly anyway. It's a valid, temporary ticket that satisfies all the requirements and costs absolutely nothing. You do need a credit card, of course. And as I said in my first post, some people are dense...

People are so dense about this topic. I've flown in with a return scheduled 6 months later. Occasionally the airline requires a return/onward ticket within a shorter time period. If that happens, I leave the counter, book a flight on Expedia where you have 24 hours to cancel for most flights(indicated when you select a flight), and return to the counter and proceed. After I'm through there and at the gate, I cancel the Expedia flight. No costs, no problem. And if immigration asks, you now have the canceled Expedia ticket to show. I do show up to the airport an hour earlier to allow enough time to do this if necessary.

A good example of why one should rent, not buy a condo. Much easier to get out of this kind of situation. You obviously need to move. Hopefully it won't cost too much to extricate yourself from this situation.
