DeepnHard 1,117 #26 Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) what is the age for 'elderly' in Thailand? When you can't get it up anymore? I remember the specter of octogenarians clattering down the streets of Florida suburbs on their "walkers", with boners projecting through their hospital robes, terrorizing the local women, thanks to Viagra and testosterone shots. A bit like a zombie flick. Edited August 4, 2017 by DeepnHard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adslv 45 #28 Posted August 4, 2017 hmm, I'm afraid I'm going to have to wait... 30yr will probably not get me qualified as an elderly for the fast track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't need them but I always carry a collapsible set for easy access (just joking, I'm still a backpacker at 70 and my light pack is just filled with condoms anyway). 2 oliver17 and Ropey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See my link a few posts back. About TB1200. I have used the same service at BKK twice and it is totally worth it. Much easier than crutches!! 2 Sylvester and Boomerang reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adslv 45 #36 Posted August 6, 2017 Thanks for the tips guys! I've booked a limo and fasttrack service from Sornierob's link. Limo+fasttrack for under €60,-, pretty good deal to skip 4hr immigration ques! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver17 10,569 #37 Posted August 6, 2017 Thanks for the tips guys! I've booked a limo and fasttrack service from Sornierob's link. Limo+fasttrack for under €60,-, pretty good deal to skip 4hr immigration ques! I have used these guys at BKK airport before. I also always use them for trips back and forth between Bangkok - Pattaya and Bangkok - Hua Hin. The cars are spotless and the drivers are sane, sober and punctual. Overall, they are pretty good. Just be sure and specify a Camry when you book, otherwise they will get cute and try to default you into a pricier BMW or Mercedes ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adslv 45 #40 Posted August 12, 2017 I arrived at Dong Mueng yesterday afternoon. My plane landed at 15:25. When we arrived at the the terminal, a guy from the FastTrack immigration service was waiting for me holding a sign with my name. I followed him through the airport to the priority immigration. I got a good look at the regular que for immigration and the entire hall was full... Using the FastTrack, I was outside the airport in under 30min, so I'd say money well spent Next, my contact showed me to my car and off to the hotel we went. The drive was also nice and relaxing and I was at my hotel at around 16:35. All in all, a very pleasant experience! 2 Boomerang and Sylvester reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ropey 1,982 #43 Posted October 4, 2017 Are there moto taxis at DMK? Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk Do you mean tuk tuk or motorbike taxis? Anyway, no to both. You can take a tuk tuk to the airport but it's pretty fucken dangerous. While Motorcycle taxis have to operate within a specific area they are licensed for.

Thanks 3,091 #45 Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) The green Sukhumvit BTS line has recently been extended up to Kasetsart University (N13). The two stations before Kasetsart, Ratchayothin (N11) and Sena Nikhom colony (N12) are now being served by airport bus no. A1 to Don Mueang airport (DMK, not Bkk!!). The airport bus to the two BTS stations leaves from gates 6 (T1) and 12 (T2). An improvement over the situation before I think, when you had to take the A1 bus all the way down to Mo Chit BTS... https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/1809879/new-bus-route-to-don-mueang-launched Edited December 8, 2019 by Thanks 2 1 Popeye66, wfkiwi69 and mikel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
