Couldn't give a monkeys what plane I travel on just as long as there is a decent amount of legroom. I've yet to travel on a plane where the staff weren't sour faced melts or the plane didn't smell like a hookers minge.

"I've yet to travel on a plane where the staff weren't sour faced melts or the plane didn't smell like a hookers minge."

That has got to be the best quote I have ever read on Thai visa thank you you really made me laugh this morning!

Just had an email from Etihad. Their A380s' kick start on 5th June

Not so sure about about the Etihad one - supposedly someone pranged it with less than an hours flying time on the clock.

Some people don't know the difference between an A340 and an A380 ? Hint ... the A380 is a double-decker. :)

I'll just go and get my coat, I mean anorack, sigh ...

I have not yet traveled on an A380 but I understand that the economy class seats are more comfortable due to extra seat width. I also hear that the flight attendants are much more pleasant on the A380 because they are hand picked especially for the plane (in the case of Emirates).

Regarding the on-board odours I cannot comment, but the cabin pressure on the A380 is more conducive with comfort and I would imagine that because the plane is relatively new, the stink of body fluids has not yet penetrated deeply into the seating.

Good luck, and enjoy your flight on the Emirates A380.

Gee the first flight will really be an adventure :)

The plane for sure will go to the wrong gate, the finger will not be long enough and all the passenger will disembark using the baggage handling belt... :D

Of course during taxi the Jumbo will cut out some trucks....

But nobody will be onboard becouse all passenger were so excited for the flight that they smoked some stuff on the " 4 years jail list" (anything apart water...) before departure and just got a bus to the middle of the desert... :D

To get those big planes full (472 seats), they 'hopefully' gonna lower the prices!

How's 12,000 baht (all in) return to Dubai until the end of June. Low enough for you?

      Outrageous Claims Slammed: Moken Kids 'Not Tourist Props'

      Picture courtesy of Bangkok Post Mu Koh Surin National Park has fiercely denied sensational claims that Moken children are being used for tourism. This follows Siranudh “Psi” Scott's viral Facebook post accusing park officers and local tour operators of exploiting children from the Moken community to entertain visitors. Park Chief Kriangkrai Phaocharoen promptly dismissed these allegations. On Sunday, he clarified that only adults are employed by the park, earning between 200-250 Thai Baht daily for a five-hour shift, complete with meals. Children observed alongside these workers were simply accompanying family members, not employed to work, according to the official statement. As for claims that Moken boys were coerced into posing shirtless with female tourists, Kriangkrai emphatically denied this too. He explained that any shirtlessness seen is simply part of the local lifestyle, without any sinister or exploitative motives behind it. Conservationist Siranudh’s original post also described the Moken’s living circumstances as dire, suggesting a persistent lack of education and rampant child labour. Contrary to these assertions, park representatives highlighted advancements in the island's infrastructure, pointing out that the Moken community now resides in a more permanent settlement with established education and healthcare services available to them. The park’s firm rebuttal aimed to reassure both local residents and potential tourists that the allegations made against its operations with the Moken community are entirely unsubstantiated. The chief’s statement seeks to put minds at ease, maintaining that the welfare and dignity of the Moken people are priorities. Despite the park's reassurances, this debate underscores the growing tensions and concerns over indigenous communities and tourism activities. It highlights the broader challenge of balancing tourism with cultural sensitivity and respect for local traditions. In conclusion, while Siranudh’s allegations brought intense scrutiny to the park's employment of Moken individuals, the Mu Koh Surin National Park maintains its innocence, affirming that its practices are fair and respectful of all individuals involved.

      American Tourist Held in Phuket for ADHD Drug Possession

      Photo courtesy of Kamala police station via Bangkok Post A holiday in paradise took a wrong turn for a 27-year-old American tourist in sunny Phuket, Thailand, as he was nabbed by local authorities for carrying five pills of a controlled substance. On Sunday, Kamala police stopped him while he was riding a motorcycle with no licence plate in the Kathu district. Upon inspection, the officers discovered methyphenidate pills hidden in the man's shoulder bag. This medical drug, commonly used for treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), is closely regulated under Thai law. It falls into the Category 2 list of psychotropic substances, meaning production, use, import, and export are intensely monitored and require specific authorisation by the Ministry of Public Health. The tourist, without any such permission, was promptly charged with illegal possession of a psychotropic substance. Methyphenidate is often prescribed to manage ADHD; however, the abuse potential is alarmingly high, according to Thailand's Food and Drug Administration's Narcotics Control Division. This classification reflects an international effort to monitor and control its distribution strictly. In Thailand, its control is especially tight, pointing to zero tolerance for non-compliance. The arrest underscores the importance of understanding local laws, especially for substances controlled globally but regulated differently at the national level. The ongoing investigation will determine any further legal implications for the traveller. As this case highlights, tourists must weigh local regulations heavily when travelling, especially regarding medications. Violating such laws, knowingly or unknowingly, can result in severe consequences, ranging from fines to imprisonment. Meanwhile, Phuket continues to welcome global visitors, reminding everyone to tread carefully when it comes to prescription drugs. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-06
