wondercul Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I was charged double on a train trip once! More than double! How can I check prices so this bulls**t doesn't happen again? someone gave me this link http://tinyurl.com/nkxexgd but i cant figure out how to get to a start page where you enter a destination to find the price.

xen Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I use http://www.seat61.com/Thailand.htm#.VAultlfV_eI Seat 61 is a great site and the bible for train travel and i use it a lot (yesterday actually) but the fares and times are not always quite up to date as it must be difficult to have all the fares and times accurate all over the world that seat 61 covers. It does give a good indication of what to expect though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to know how to use the website to find other ticket prices. you are looking at Type of train Rapid if you bought the green and white computer printed ticket from the station it is impossible for them to rig it. as soi biker says you got charged for aircon and express fees. these cannot be removed or faked for the train/seat that has them. you need to look at Type of train Special Express yes we can tell you where and how to check tickets but then those paying for the seat61 site advertising wouldnt be happy Edited February 23, 2015 by koo wallety tourist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is different about it vs the price 174 baht ticket? well the major difference is that the price is 399 baht but most travelers wouldn't notice that because they would be more focused on the colour of the seats Edited February 23, 2015 by koo wallety tourist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
