Very true.... the criteria listed (eg Champagne and caviar) is completely ridiculous from the 'evaluation of an airport' even from a luxury perspective....

That said - regardless of what the criteria is - I find Suvarnabumi Airport quite a decent airport... I've travelled through it so often, a few hundred times and never have any issues......

Agree with this. If champagne and caviar is important to you you'll be flying business or first so the rest of what is in the airport is completely irrelevant.

Economy passengers are not looking for champagne or caviar at any airport so the whole exercise and ranking is just silly.

Sort Out My Mac Mini..PLEASE.!

leverito · 15 hours ago15 hr

Hello AN family! I'm going to be honest with you — I'm a bit tired and frustrated at this point, so I'm turning to this community with real hope! I have a Mac mini that needs to be properly connected to a monitor, and what sounds like a simple task has turned into quite an adventure. I've already welcomed several "specialists" from Tukom and nearby shops into my home — lovely people, but unfortunately none of them managed to finish the job properly. The monitor works, yes — but the picture qual

A very expensive ride

bannork · 6 hours ago6 hr

A British tourist says her dream winter escape to Thailand has spiralled into a financial and medical nightmare after a horse riding accident left her with a broken spine — and a £30,000 hospital bill. Joanna Ingram, 57, from Belton, Norfolk, United Kingdom, travelled to Thailand in February with her husband Stuart for a relaxing two-week break. Instead, the trip ended in emergency spinal surgery and a battle with their travel insurer over who will pay the soaring costs. A Holiday Ride That End

Gaza farmers who can’t touch their land on Israel’s ‘yellow line’

Gaza farmers who can’t touch their land on Israel’s ‘yellow line’

bannork · yesterday at 09:03 AM1 day

A painted row of concrete blocks now cuts across Gaza’s farmland — and for thousands of farmers it marks the end of their livelihoods. Known as the “yellow line”, the Israeli military’s new deployment zone has swallowed vast stretches of agricultural land. Farmers can see their fields from a distance, but stepping closer risks gunfire. For many, the land that once fed Gaza now sits beyond reach. A Line That Erased a Livelihood Farmer Enad stops short of the yellow barrier near Beit Lahia in nor

When the Iran War Ends What Would Constitute Victory for the US?

Alan Zweibel · 7 hours ago7 hr

Would only the unconditional surrender of the Iranian government qualify? Would survival of the government but surrender of their nuclear stockpile qualify? Would guarantees of freedom for the Iranian people along with the survival of the government qualify? Would freedom for the iranian people and surrender of the nuclear stockpile qualify? Would surivival of the government, no nuclear stockpile and cessation of support for allies outside the country qualify? Obviously, there are other possible

Some Idle Speculation About Possible Outcomes from Trump's Reversal

Alan Zweibel · 10 hours ago10 hr

Trump now finds himself in quite a pickle. To avoid electoral disaster at home, the prospect of massive destruction of infrastructure in the Gulf States has to be averted. So now he's backing down. But now that the Iranians have seen him backing down, what's to stop them from demanding that Israel cease the destruction too? If not, the Iranians can start to implement their threat. Which would create a split between Trump and Netanyahu. Netanyahu wouldn't have much choice but to acquiesce ultimat

Do you actually get out and explore Thailand ?

The Cobra · 20 hours ago20 hr

Do you actually get out and explore Thailand, or just the same general radius of where you live ? Been here long enough to have seen my own province thoroughly, and I've started pushing further out. Thailand rewards you for it if you can be bothered. Two places I can actually vouch for in the Chiang Rai area that most foreigners skip entirely: Phu Chi Fa — about 90km from Chiang Rai city, right on the Laos border at 1,628 metres. Free entry. The sunrise draws crowds of Thais in winter (Nov–Fe

Do foreigners in Thailand really change or just adapt?

Do foreigners in Thailand really change or just adapt?

SoCal1990 · Saturday at 12:20 PM2 days

Had a vivid conversation last night with a group of about 10 expat friends at a relaxing restaurant down in Silom that ended up going all over the place. The group was mostly men, but a few women as well. Basically all people who live and work here and have some sort of busy lifestyle, as opposed to many foreigners living here who no longer work and end up staying home with their own comforts in some form of isolation. After we finished the meal and had a few drinks, what started as a simple c

Do expats in Thailand see relationships differently over time?

Do expats in Thailand see relationships differently over time?

The Cobra · Saturday at 02:43 AM2 days

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and wasn’t sure how to word it without it sounding wrong, but here goes. Living in Thailand has changed how I look at relationships. Not overnight, and not in some dramatic way, but gradually over time. Back home, things felt more fixed. People settled into a certain pattern — similar age, similar background, similar expectations. Here, it feels different. The range of relationships you see is much wider, and the expectations don’t always line up the sam
