So I'm planning to go to Bangkok for cosmetic surgery later this year

I've seen so many negative comments surrounding Pattaya I want to go see it for myself, I would also visit Phuket too if it wasn't further away

Is there like a bus service from Bangkok to Pattaya and back daily? Or how much would a Tuktuk cost to go there?

Hello hello my friends

I hope you are enjoying this heat wave as much as i am, I am turning to Reddit for help with a possible visa problem

My story so far I have a Multiple entry visa (METV) that was valid until March 20 during that time I have done two border crossings via flight to Singapore to renew it. I came back to Thailand march 20 on the last day of my METV and got 60 days. Until May 21.

My question then is: now that my METV is expired but my stamp is good until May21 can I STILL request a 30 visa extension (so that I can stay until June 20) ? This will be my 2nd extension if it works.

Looking forward to your responses TY!

I've talked to about 5 or 6 bar girls who admit they do smoke meth and one even offered me some one time which I hard passed lol I don't know what the punishment for being caught with meth is but I'd imagine it would be an awful time for a Farang

if I withdraw 10000 baht my card charge me 2000 baht + 200 baht thai atm fee is this happen to all or every bank have different policy?

it's my first day here and i had two taxi drivers and two shop workers completely ignore me when i say sawasdee kha to them. am i doing something wrong or am i overthinking?

Hello!

Just got back from my first ever vacation in Thailand and had a lovely time, except for one really weird thing. On the train back from Chiang Mai to Bangkok, my friend noticed this mark on her leg.

She'd been wearing capris pants all day, so this portion of her leg was exposed and therefore could easily have pressed against something on the street or in a Grab that accidentally transferred this mark onto her skin. We also got foot massages earlier that day, but obviously neither of us noticed anyone drawing this onto her at the time.

Not pictured: This is essentially an 'x' mark in the middle of a semi-complete circle. You can only see the curving bottom line of that circle in this picture.

Just wondering if anyone has a clue what it might be or has experienced similar!

I don't drink beer the taste has never appealed to me so when I'm going to bars the majority do not sell cider, I resort to vodka redbull but my guts have had enough of it, can anyone recommend something a cider drinker like myself might enjoy? Lower % alcohol the better

• Length of stay: 24 days
• Visa type: tourist
• Visa entry: single
• Passenger 1: Father (UK Passport)
• Passenger 2: Mother (Bangladesh passport)
• Passenger 3: Daughter (UK passport)

Passenger 2 has UK Settled status via Spouse visa & holds a UK Biometric Residence Permit (BRP Card).

Hey,

Does anyone know if it's a single application for passenger 2 only or if it's 3 separate applications on the Thai E Visa? We're travelling together as a family with flights booked in & out of Thailand (1 way flights).

Flight details:

• London to Bangkok

• Bangkok to Phuket

• Phuket to Bangkok

• Bangkok to Sylhet (via Dhaka)

• Sylhet to London

Have included all flight tickets (in & out of Thailand) on a single PDF. Have all other necessary documents ready inc bank statements, pictures etc...

I know UK passport holders get visa on arrival but wasn't sure if it's necessary to process 3 different applications (including fees!) or just 1?

Am assuming if we send 3 applications may increase chances of visa approval for passenger 2?

I've flown in & out of Thailand in the past (not in the past 12 months, so won't exceed 60 days)

P.s I've emailed the Thai embassy - their email responses can help but also pretty generic/canned responses!

Thanks

So I will be traviling to thailand and asking for good hotel recommendations, not to expensive but not to cheap with good window view and good room ,

1- I will be staying in Bangkok for 3 days any one can recommend a hotel near bts Station ? 2- I will be staying in pattaya for 3 days any one can recommend a hotel near walking street and pattaya beach ? If possible with a very good window view and a pool 😅.

So please recommend me a 3 or 4 stars hotel , just for information my budget for hotel per day is from 1500 to 2500 baht .

Hello! I am traveling to Koh Samui (4N) and Phuket (3N) from 18 to 25 May. Looking for recommendations on good cafes/restuarants, beach clubs, places to explore etc. Planning for a chill, relaxed trip so nothing too crazy.

Also any idea on how bad would the weather be? :(

I will be traveling to Bangkok from the US later this year and have two similar flight options. One is through Qatar Airways with a layover in Doha and the other is through Alaska Airlines/Starlux with a layover in Taiwan. The prices for both options are fairly similar.

Does anyone have experience with using either of these two airlines? If price and arrival/departure times were about the same, would you choose one airline over the other based on experience or comfort?

Hi everyone!

In December I'm planning a trip from Chiang Mai to Krabi and I'm curious which fligh option you think it's better.
One option is Thai Airways flight with 1:40 h layover in BKK. I'm assuming the check in luggage is transferred by the airline as it is nowhere stated that self transfer is required.??
Also are there any potential problems with buying Thai Airways ticket from AirAsia Move app?

My second option is direct Thai AirAsia flight, which is 40 $ more expensive than the Thai Aiways ones.

Thank you in advance for any advice or input!

I believe weather makes up 90% of the enjoyment factor of a place. I like cloudy weather with cool breeze. I am not into sunbathing! Not at all. I hate going out in hot sun. I also do not want to visit Thailand in rainy season as it becomes really hard to go out and I do not want to spend entire week or so inside the hotel.

My 12-month ED visa will soon end (from a Thai language school, I attended all lessons).

I know I will soon have to go to immigration to cancel my visa and then leave the country before the determined date.

I want to know if any of you came back to Thailand on a visa exemption just a few days or a couple of weeks after canceling your ED visa.

I have a condo lease that I could extend month by month but of course, I'd do it only if I can spend another 45 or 90 days in the country as a tourist before I figure out my long-term visa situation. Thank you

We're 6 people traveling from Bangkok to Pattaya. What would be the easiest option for transport.

I was thinking of trying to book a minivan, but not sure where. Could probably book through the hotel, online website or maybe through Bolt or Grab. Anyone have any experience with this? We have 6 big luggage so won't even fit in two taxis, that's why it gotta be a van or something like that. Appreciate replies

And heavy rain if possible [but I understand it's rainy reason]

My partner ajd I enjoy nature, hiking, animals, snorkelling , trying different restaurants and learning about Thai culture.

We are playing to stay in Bangkok 4 days or so then fly to Luang Prabang about 4 days. After we got back to Bangkok and then Chang Mai or Phuket and then Krabi and the relax beach—we want to snorkel and get massages! Any insight is much appreciated:)

Guys need help to plan my 4 day plan in phuket. I am reaching by 6th night phuket. I am thinking to go and stay on phi phi island for 1-2 day or on Karabi and come back to phuket on 9.

Can you give suggest where should I stay either at krabi or phi phi or any other island. Thinking to do one day island tour from any of island.

I will be going to koh phangan after 10. And will be staying there for week near those islands.

Any suggestions would be great help🙏🏻

Hi folks,

I have bought these Sony headphones recently and they originally come with the charging case by default as shown on the photo. I know that power banks are not allowed when boarding planes so would like to ask if anyone had an experience with this type of products when flying?

I will fly out by China Airlines and come back by Turkish Airlines.

Thank you in advance.

Cheers!

Quick question after plane ticket is 3000 USD enough for a month of backpacking if I stay in hostels and eat mainly street food etc.?

Looking for recommendations for dive sites in Thailand I’m only there for a week I am going to Koh Phangan for the full moon party, and would love to find another spot to do some dives from Seems like my best option would be to get back to Phuket/ and do day trips from there? Or I’ve heard ko Chang at the top of the gulf is good🤷‍♂️

I have been to Pattaya and Thailand few times already and would like to try something different, but similar. I know nowhere in the world is nearly close to be as good as Pattaya, but what is your 2nd pick for the same type of entertainment that we get in Pattaya?

I am planning a trip to Thailand with my parents (both aged 60+) from 26th May to 2nd June. What can I expect weather wise at the moment? Is it going to be unbearable heat? I don't see a point planning a vacation if it's going to be too hot to step out. Any feedback is appreciated.

But I'm not having much luck.

I had severe food poisoning and wasn't able to make my flight back, so, I'm staying over an additional 5 days until I recover [I'm still very fatigued ]which I need documentation for as 'proof' I was ill.

The public hospital I went to provided very basic documents and won't help. I don't mind paying , please DM or post any advice.

My girlfriend and I are going to be in Koh Tao for a quick 3 days. I’ve got my padi license, but she’s never been before. I was looking at 1 day courses for her to try it out. Is it worth it? What is the depth limit on the open water dive?

Im a 28M from new zealand, looking for like minded travellers to explore bangkok with. Send me a DM :)
