Would like to treat my wife to one of those spas where the treat the hair/head.
Any good recommendations and reasonable prices in the Bangkok area. I will be staying down near the river area but do not mind coming up to the center area where there may be more affordable and plentiful options to choose from.
Thank you
Will there be private long tail boat rentals for snorkeling on Kood or even Chang? Would prefer it on Kood.
About 7 years ago I was able to rent a long tail boat for me and my wife to go snorkeling on Koh Lipe for a half day. Cost was around maybe 1500 baht and then tipped the captain 500 baht.
I see This BB Scuba charges about 15,000 baht for a half day private. That is a bit much. I'm looking for any other companies or private longtails.
Thank you
Singapore Flight LAX to SIN to BKK and then once landing in BKK i have a 3.5 hour layover until taking a Bangkok Airways flight to one of the islands in Thailand.
I understand that 1.25 hours is plenty of time to land in SIN and connect to my next flight to BKK.
I am more nervous about the luggage making it on to the SIN to BKK flight (all on same ticket)
Let's say the flight from LAX is delayed and transit time in SIN is now only 45 minutes, do you still think my luggage will make it to the SIN to BKK flight?
I know that there will be other flights from SIN to BKK but after a 3.5 hour layover in BKK I will then board a Bangkok Airways flight and not sure how my delayed luggage would get to me. Would not be the most fun thing to organize lol Hopefully all goes smoothly.
Thanks for reading.
Have a microwave that is 1 month past the 1 year warranty.
The cost to repair the microwave will probably be more than buying a new microwave.
If I have the microwave repaired and pay for the repair, will AMEX reimburse me for the repair, assuming I have the original receipt and the repair receipt?
Purchased on the platinum card.
Thank you.
Looking to spend a few days on Koh Kood. Still searching through hotels on line.
Has anyone stayed at Beach Natural Resort on Koh Kood?
I'm leaning towards staying in the Bang Bao Beach area and that seems like a decent resort in that area. I am open to other suggested resorts along that stretch.
If Klong Chao Beach is a better spot, share in the comments but I think I am leaning towards Bang Bao Beach. Seems a little quieter and peaceful.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Will be visiting Koh Kood/Koh Chang for the first time.
Will be staying for 6 nights/7 days.
Planning to go to Koh Kood first and figured I would finish up on Koh Chang since it is the island closer to the airport for the trip back to BKK.
Will fly down and get to Koh Kood on a Friday afternoon and leave on Thursday the following week.
Would you do 3 nights on Koh Kood and 3 nights on Koh Chang?
I was leaning to 4 nights on Koh Kood and 2 nights on Koh Chang.
I assume I will probably lose a day checking out and transferring from Kood to Chang.
Or would you consider 5 nights on Koh Kood and 1 night on Koh Chang before getting up the next morning to get to the airport.
Ideally would like to maximize what little time we have on the islands.
We are in our late 40s. A couple, no kids. Not party people but fine having a drink or two. Just looking to relax and snorkel, eat great tasting food and get massages. Probably will take a private snorkel trip one of the days while on Kood to visit some of the other islands.
For those who have visited this area, I would welcome the thoughts of others. Thank you for your time.
Will be flying into Bangkok from US. Will then have a few hours to spare until taking a Bangkok Airways flight to Trat.
I believe Bangkok Airways flies out of Terminal A and B domestically and there may be a lounge in that area. (there is in A but it does not have a shower)
Would like a decent lounge and a shower before making that flight. I really like the Lounge in the S Terminal. That may be a bit far but I move fast.
Concourse C or D is probably the closest to Concourse A and B and most reasonable choice.
Would I be able to even get to Concourse C or D? (those are international and I will be flying domestic after landing from an international flight).
So I have never flown domestic out of BKK before so I'm not sure once I check in, if I can still go to any Concourse I wish or if flying domestic I am sent to a different level away from the any of the international parts.
Priority Pass would be my lounge access.
Thank you for your time.
I purchased a flight a few months ago. Flight is: LAX to BKK via SIN. I booked Round Trip. Economy (2 tickets). And Paid for 2 seats on the departure LAX to SIN leg.
Departure: LAX to SIN and SIN BKK (purchased seats on the LAX to SIN leg)
Return: BKK to SIN and SIN LAX
I received an email a couple of weeks after purchasing that the return flight (the 1st leg BKK to SIN) was being cancelled. The SIN to LAX leg return remains as scheduled. They basically automatically reassigned me to an earlier BKK to SIN flight on the same day.
But that airline change gave me an option to change my return itinerary for free.
So that got me to thinking, let's extend our trip an extra two days and change the return date/flight at no charge.
So today I finally got around to attempting to make that change. I clicked on the new return flight itinerary options and chose a new flight and new date.
As I was clicking through the progress/selections to confirm, I read on the page
"Your paid seats will be cancelled and refunded to your original mode of payment"
Paid Seats Refund
Your Paid Seats will be cancelled and refunded to your original mode of payment.
So, this is where it gets tricky. Is that statement about paid seats being cancelled meant for the entire itinerary or just for the return leg that I am changing (of which I have no paid seats on that leg)?
For instance, as I mentioned above, I paid for seats on the departure leg of the flight. That flight is still confirmed, and no changes have been made although it's all part of this same itinerary. Confirmed is shown in Green.
BUT I am making an itinerary change to the Return leg, but I have not made any purchases for seats to the Return leg.
So, when I click confirm to the return flight change, I assume that resets my entire itinerary and my purchased seats on the unchanged and confirmed departure leg get canceled and I have to choose my seats again and pay? Or is the statement about your paid seats being cancelled only implied for the return flight change (of which I have no paid seats on that leg)?
The reason this is important is because when I purchased the flight my credit card offered me $300 USD back if I spent $1700 USD with Singapore airlines. The purchased seats took me over the $1700 threshold and I got $300 back.
If I make this itinerary change for the return leg and the departure seats are cancelled and refunded, that will then dip me below the $1700 USD, and the credit card will then take back the $300.
I hope everyone can follow 😄
Basically, if an itinerary change is made for the return leg, will the paid seats of the departure flight end up being cancelled and refunded?
Thank you.
