Why do I see this every year, the airports like all other infrastructure should always be ready for extra traffic, nothing headlines just to fill up space is bad and boring, next we will get the BIB on alert over Songkran, well sorry they've been asleep for sometime and the bus companies expect a bumper load, pity they couldn't stay on the road. Happy SongKran Everyone, now , I wounder how many will answer???? coffee1.gif
