eyebee Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 There is a shop on Walking Street that does this (it's by the alley that leads to New Living Dolls 1). The airfares are $50 or €50 from your home to Thailand. The catch is that you have to stay at a designated hotel at 37 ($ or €) per night, which seems very expensive to me. You can see the full rules if you look inside the shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveyravey Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I fink i now the catch. De sign says that if they cant supply the flight wivin 7 days of ur preferd date then they will refund your 50 euro in full. they dont say the will refund your hotel money. My guess is that they take the cash and then tell 99.9% of punters that they cant supply the flight wivin 7 days of their prefered date and will refund the 50 euro but i bet in the small print it says that the hotel booking is non refundable. IMO a totel con job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deejah Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Being this is A thailand forum,please speak in baht.Not everyone is familiar with the pound or dollar.Everyone onderstands the thai baht. not my choice the ad was not in baht go figure i think it was in dollars as that is more of an international currency however it all seems odd to me that the ad was for tourists already here in thailand, chai mai? some of the posts helped to clarify THE CATCH that was the point of the thread thanks folks apologizes for the slang in op i see it only encourages the masses Edited January 10, 2011 by deejah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
