Get off in Thailand (AirAsia)

As a non-native speaker it took me a moment to find out what the ambiguous meaning of this phrase is about

AirAsia used it as an advert promoting flights from Brisbane to Bangkok.

Big outrage at the city council.

It reminds me of an almost equally infamous billboard advertisement in Melbourne a few years ago for Cockatoo Wines (a cockatoo is an Australian parrot).  It showed a famous female model and the simple slogan "She enjoys a cockatoo".  The advertisement stayed there for months
