Mavica Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 When I lived in Chicago, airfare to BKK was less (and easier to get to) than it is were I to depart from where I Iive now (Central West Florida). For two weeks in November airfare will cost me approx. $1,700 with a trip time of about 30 hours. Travel time and airfare cost are a deterrent. My medical history and preference in guys has changed since my first visit to Thailand in the early 1990s, so though my interest in Thailand remains high my desire has lessened. Never say never: I would visit Thailand in the future but cultural reasons other than go-go or other "boys" will be the reason for the visit. Yes, the extracurricular activities will be a plus, but it will be easier for me to travel to the Dominican Republic and South America, and some European destinations for that.

Will7272 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Just booked Adelaide to bkk return in early December. Business class and cheapest fare was $6500. Pre Covid was always able to pay about $4500. Olddaddy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterRS Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 With sterling seemingly on an extended crash through the floor, I'm sorry for those who still have not booked their flights out of the UK. The currency is now at its lowest against the US$ in 37 years and there's no end in sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londoner Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 At the same time, I'm sure that we are all reassured by the fact that the rich have been given generous tax-cuts so that they can continues to enjoy their 5* holidays happily.
