Ken Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Wow! I don't know many people in the $100K and up (USD) range, and the ones I do, wouldn't be interested in the "Thailand Elite" club anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the issues that we have already talked to death in previous threads regarding the future viability of the elite card program, I've always thought that targeting this high-end market was a non-starter. The real high rollers aren't all that interested in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my area of the woods that comes under the heading of NOSEY Bstds and is confidential.

ExNewMex Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I really like that they don't even bother to check and see if you've got the right to be in their special line at immigration. Anyone who wants can use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who wants can use it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How you do that? I am not a member but sometimes arrive together with one. You don't stand at the special line, but one rep. takes your p/ports, the officer counts how many pax and how many p/ports he gets, then wait in the lounge until they arrive with your luggage and your stamped p/ports. Usually, I am travelling on my own, so how to use this line without being a member? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoophound Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 40k baht a year sounds reasonable,given the offering described in the previous post.
