Yeah, it's written like it's a high school project

Arriving in bkk for the month of July. I usually take a hotel that is close to most of my nightly activities and near the skytrain. Dynasty Grande, Landmark, Dream etc. I am looking at Soi 11. Hotel 11 or the Mercure. Anyone have experience and information of these hotels? I have seen the hotel Legacy Suites Soi 29, on Booking.com with great rates and the facilities looks very good. Does anyone have experience of this hotel? Would it become a bit of a drag returning there early in the morning?

looks fake

Ha I agree. Then I read the "Our Team" blurb on their website and see it was founded by two Check-in agents from Stansted and thought........."hmmm, this might be a little bit pie-in-the-sky". Its a great idea though, I wish them good luck.

I did it. Flights booked. Prices keep going up so I did it. If they go down oh well, if they go up then all good. My current situation means I need flights that take off and land back at Heathrow within certain times so EVA and Thai not really an option. In the end, Cathay Pacific got my money. Taking off at 11:30 am from Heathrow is good and landing back there at 6 am is also good.

OH well, sounded good

It might be some time yet before they are flying. This article from a year ago, estimated would be at least two years. https://thepointsguy.co.uk/news/will-atmosphere-airlines-launch/

Sorry to hear about,and disappointed to hear about the bad experience with Etihad. I looking at flights going the opposite way,from Asia to the UK,and back via BKK.And I'm not exactly spoilt for choice(and ridiculous prices) due to the Ukraine and airspace situation. Chances are you've already researched it: One thing that I've found helpful on SkyScanner is checking prices for one way tickets with different carriers.Used to be that a one way ticket was the same price as a roundtrip ticket.But not any more. Makes for a really flexible schedule, depending on the carrier(s). I hear what you say about arrival times. Arriving back in the Uk in the evening and having to get home at that time is not only tiring/tiresome but also depressing as hell! Arriving in BKK early afternoon or anytime in the morning is best for me. I like arriving in the morning because chances are I'm going north to Chiang Rai/Chiang Mai or south to Hua Hin.And can still arrive at my final destination with some of the day remaining.

Yeah it’s very much ladyboy friendly. They probably wouldn’t even bat an eyelid if someone walked in with a goat (it is close to the Arab area after all) it’s been an institution for prostitution for nearly 60 years now.
