  1. Pricewise in the same category: China Eastern go through Shanghai, huge though. Layover 2:35. Can't comment on the airline. Ratings are average. (had to edit some mixups)
  2. Maybe bearable in Singapore. But as almost all reviews mention: little to no AC! Hot and humid in the terminal. Have fun.
  3. Heavy affected is Finnair. Now not only Russia/Ukraine off limits. Linear distance: 7.917 km Flight distance: 10.790 km
  4. From/to other European destinations it's quite usual. Seen flights touching Iraqi airspace, Saudi Arabia...
  5. Maybe some rubbing before the robbing (which I would call theft?).
  6. A room safe may not withstand a professional but safes you from such mishap. I would be less concerned about cash but passport. mobile phone, car/motorbike keys which might go as a collateral.
  7. If it lasts you can be sure. The map is a bit hard to read. Guess it's north OF Tibet not over Tibet which usually is a no no.
  8. Is it over? Just seen two flights from London heading straight to Afghanistan/Pakistan? No it's not. Flights over northern Tibet? Stunning.
  9. ZRH to BKK going over Saudi Arabia!
  10. What I feared from the moment I read the headlines about these war crazy people. Another detour added. Flying Europe to Thailand becomes a zig zag.
  11. No. An independent laboratory as written above. 550 is just an example price. In Pattaya (Lifecare Lab) I paid 700 if I remember correctly.
  12. Look at the looser party (SPD, "social democrats") and see how many ministers and other high ranks they get. It's a complete voter fraud. And of course the cabinet is balanced to the woke (male/female, east/west/north/south). It's not about finding the most competent people. At the very end of the last legislative period they rushed through a trillion Euro debt package. 100 billion assigned to climate protection to buy the vote of the greens.
  13. The usual nonsense. It's of course theoretical as it measures speed to the internet exchange of the provider. But who defines the "realistic" speed. That's you with the applications/countries/servers you use.
  14. Unlimited volume mobile internet for 300 Baht/month? But what about speed? There is always two possible limits, volume and/or speed. Both unlimited if exist must be extremely expensive And that is false advertising. Limited speed AND limited volume sold as unlimited. In some countries consumer protection would kick them. I need mobile internet only when mobile meaning to be on the road, out of the house. For that a GOMO (AIS network) package is enough for me. 110 GB, unlimited speed, 699 Baht/year. Last year I had 150 GB for 999 and didn't use it up. It includes AIS WiFi where available and some xxx minute calls to all domestic networks. The "unlimited" speed varies between about 50 and 150 Mbit/s. As usual depends on location, time of day etc. And even 50 Mbits/s is just a measurement with no practical implication. Watching videos, video messaging etc. is possible with much less (like the 15 Mbit/s advertised).
  15. 7000 miles (*2) with a Diesel fueled tug. Will need a lot of ferry rides to compensate.
  16. Searched a bit. Uruguay is high on renewable (lot of hydro power.) but depending on import from Argentine and Brazil is demand exceeds. Argentine about 39% low carb. So they could well say this ship is hydro powered
  17. Would be interesting to know how they ferry the ferry over the approx 7000 miles.
  18. Or drunk as a skunk. Some drivers here can sit behind the wheel but have problems to stand on their feet.
  19. Well but motorway 7 is four lanes! No need to crash into a lorry at curbside. I drove there in the night only once and can't remember about lighting. (avoid driving in the night outside of cities as good as possible)
  20. Let's hope that insecticides are not the problem in a national park?
  21. Even better news would be that this idiot pranker found a real job and stays away from making fools of Thai people.
