Perhaps this is a lesson to people who are too quick to jump on posters, especially newbies, and judge them prematurely as trolls.

Happens on every board. Fact of life I'm afraid.

After my wedding in May, I paid for the in-laws to fly back to Udon on Nok Air. Booking online was easy, but tat the airport, they demanded a fax with my passport and both sides of the credit card. Hope this works!

You get them too ??....I thought I was the only person in the world making millions of dollars this way..they keep telling me I must keep the information confidentional...do you think they are telling porkie pies..

I get those letters too. I made about 50 million dollars this year. It sure is easy money.

Glad to hear there has been a solution.

To the doubters, have you never been ill on a holiday ? ? In general, we are more prone to fall ill while on holiday in other countries -- different germs and viruses, different water and food etc.

During the BKK airport occupation, people on vital daily medications had to suddenly find a local source, to ensure supplies did not run too low, while coping with all the other chaos and rearrangements.

Being ill while waiting in a crowded airport for a delayed flight is bad enough, let alone the circumstances the OP described.
