  1. Getting to and from the Holiday Inn is not difficult from BT but the Avani (old Marriott) is closer. Having a gym, pool and good food on premises are definitely plusses.
  2. Please list the airlines in the context of this thread's subject, those airlines that permit pets in the cabin. Eva will apparently make an exception with a doctor's letter. I travel EVA from SFO to BKK and the Taipei leg is 13-1/2 hours which tests human endurance let alone that of a pet.
  3. Excuse me I was replying specifically to Michael's friend who booked on EVA, not the domestic airlines, Lufthansa, or other airlines in the links. The point being Michael's friend seems to think it is Eva's policy to allow dogs in the cabin, they do not, read the link. Have a wonderful day!
  4. Your friend better double with EVA. I am a frequent flyer with EVA and I would personally object for health and safety reasons. By law guide assistance dogs must be allowed on planes and I have no problem with that. Like other airlines your pet will go in the cargo hold. http://www.evaair.com/en-us/managing-your-trip/baggage-information/travelling-with-pets/ I have seen a guide dog on an EVA once, never any pets.

    Jomtien?

    My friends that previously stayed at the Poseidon now stay at the Agate and highly recommend it.

    Jomtien?

    Out of curiosity how did you make your booking? As mentioned, simply go on the gay social apps and you will find many boys a short distance from you. I can be sitting with a waiter at the Jomtien complex and show him profile pics and he'll reply, oh he works at the BC bar, or SUN, or 4T bar, etc, etc.
  7. Versatile, muscular will be a challenge. Perhaps BT, but there are 3 or 4 massage places in the Jomtien complex you may wish to check out.
  8. That rumor has been in circulation for many years.
  9. kokopelli, I misread this, you are right. A friend used his foreign (USA) atm card at a TMB last night and was asked if he would like the transaction in his home currency. The prompt was going to give a rate of slightly higher than 34. He declined the offer and received the VISA rate which is quite good. I used my cc card here at a hospital recently and told the cashier Thai baht. The receipt showed an exchange rate of 28.99 and the exchange rate should have been around 35.5. Told her USD should not appear on my receipt and do it again right. Went home checked my account online and everything was done right. The DCC scam is a big money maker for merchants and banks. Beware.
  10. You've got the rates reversed and the differences are greater than that.
  11. As stated, my comment applied only to the Pattaya location on Pattaya Klang, the Thai food there is okay, BTW.
  12. Regarding the Foodland counter western breakfast, this only concerns the Pattaya location as I have never eaten at a Bangkok location; don't. Pattaya location calls itself "Cheap but Good", it's cheap but it ain't good. Sort of like the Boat cafe opposite BT, but worse. In California, prisoners would probably riot over being served food like this and some judge would rule for them as being cruel and unnecessary punishment. ☺️
  13. Consider Dean and DeLuca, several convenient locations.
  14. If you go to gay social apps (Gay Romeo) and include XXL in the search criteria you will be surprised to see how many are ladyboys that are tops. That might disappoint many but it has been my experience when checking out the goods during my bar days. Years as a gay man confirms (with a few exceptions) the length of you know what is inversely proportional to the bicep measurement.
  15. Yes good idea, anything less than 9 inches, do not reply as we don't want the thread cluttered with disappointments.

    Air Fares

    I can do economy seating on a short haul three hours or less but some here are definitely in to SM flying economy on long haul flights. I could do it 20 years ago but now I have to ask myself why? I fly EVA (Star Alliance), checkin, boarding, lounge privileges, priority security and immigration (Suvarnabhumi too!) perks are all worth it to me.
  17. Pattaya. Pattaya is cheaper than Bangkok and Chiang Mai cheaper than both.
  18. Locked means you are forced to use a certain carrier. Simply contact your US carrier and request they give you the unlock code which is bunch of alpha-numeric you punch into your phone. You can always physically remove a SIM card.
  19. The WBPF contest now through Dec 5 in Pattaya. http://www.wbpf-tv.com/info-2016-nov-pattaya-2/full-movie-day-1
  20. Replace? There has been no news reports to suggest Replace. Malaysia also has this visa option.
  21. I also like Pastrami on Rye pizza but for me their sandwiches are the best in town and they also have a tasty breakfast menu (no delivery for breakfast).
  22. Pizza Company is better than Pizza Hut. If you are in Pattaya then New York Pizza is the way to go. Superior pizza; I use their telephone system, they answer the phone and confirm my address from previous orders, very simple. 0807873330
  23. Info from Wikipedia, the nuclear option: "In most proposed variations of the nuclear option, the presiding officer would rule that a simple majority vote is sufficient to end debate. If the ruling is challenged, a majority would be required to overturn it. If the ruling is upheld, it becomes a precedent. This would end what had effectively become a 60-vote requirement for confirmation of an executive or judicial nominee, or the passage of legislation." After Mr Comey's comments weeks ago the chances of a Democratic Senate were reduced to 50%.
