Site connection problems, AGAIN !
Another feature that appears to be missing - on the previous version, on the main forum homepage, there was a listing on the right side of the twenty or so threads that were newest, or had the latest responses. Now it's just a list of forums that requires lots of scrolling.

The problem of excess baggage: should the passenger be weighed too?
A number of years back a very large passenger sat in the middle seat after I was seated in the aisle seat. Before he sat down, he announced loudly to the window seat passenger and myself that both armrests would be up for the flight, and proceeded to raise them. This was because he couldn't fit between the armrests. As soon as he sat down, his jelly blubber was rubbing on me, clearly spreading past the edge of his seat, and invading my limited space. I tried to lower the armrest, but could not. I was damned if I was going to endure the flight with his fat snuggled up against me. I notified a flight attendant, and luckily, there was an open seat I was able to move to. I just wanted to get away from that sweaty jelly roll. That was one of my last long haul economy class flights.

I see, you're staying logged in. That explains it. This new update to the site is not very user friendly, several complaints from board members (members that were able to log in).

Is there a problem adding photos after the latest "update"?
I posted the 7-Eleven photo from a saved photo on my PC, no hosting site link required. For me, nothing has changed. Maybe your browser or device is having an issue with the new board update??

Just curious, if you're not logged in, how are you able to post messages on this thread?

Working for me on a PC. The "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." prompt is still there when replying. I'll add a photo below to test it.

Adventures of a Bangkok Rookie August 2026
I think you mean Khao San Road. Khao Lak is in Phang Nga province. Since @aaroninatl is new to Thailand, I just want to make sure he doesn't hop in a taxi and wind up about 12 hours south of Bangkok, in Khao Lak.

Bangkok Short Trip Report - August
There's some information about Super A in a previous thread about NatureBoy and Super A:

Weekends in Bangkok 2026
Are you by chance studying for the bar exam to become a British attorney?

Weekends in Bangkok 2026
Not likely. @BjornAgain reported in the thread about Guido's that the tenants in Soi 4 are being served notice.

Show Schedules?
I have never heard the word "fee" used, however the word "off" is commonly used, as in "take off".

You guys ever use Airbnb ?
I've seen a couple hotels in Thailand where the air conditioner is blowing directly toward the bed. I believe the owners design it that way, to make it feel cold for anyone in bed, so hotel guests will adjust the thermostat, thereby saving on the electric bill for the hotel.
-
Show Schedules?
Yes, in the mafia world context, "off" would mean to terminate that person. In Thai boy bars, customers off boys. In Thai lady bars, customers barfine ladies.

The Seductive Art of Giving a F*ck: A Blind Approach to Having a Good Time
This sentence sounds as if the AI believes you are also a digital bot, and not a living person. Simulation??? I think your hot story got the AI aroused with lust, so that its circuit boards were overheating, and couldn't think straight when it wrote this sentence.

No more Fast track
Once again, @Olddaddy is posting incorrect information. @hank75 is correct. As I previously posted, AOT manages Suvarnabhumi Airport. AOT is the only official provider of purchased Fast Track services. All other Fast Track providers are third party sellers, Limousine.th, Klook, Tripadvisor, Viator, Booking, Getyourguide, etc, there are many. I'll explain it for you, @Olddaddy , it's like buying an airline ticket from the airline, or buying it from Cheaptickets or Expedia. You did not receive an email from Fast Track. You received an email from Limousine.in.th about the fast track service they are offering. If you purchase Fast Track from any agency other than the official AOT service, you are buying from a third party. Authorities have recently cracked down on third party Fast Track resellers. This is the real reason Limousine.in.th can't offer the service any longer, as @Olddaddy posted above. I just asked Google AI if the purchased AOT Fast Track service is still allowed and operational. The following answer is from Google: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview Yes, the official AOT Fast Track service is still completely allowed and operational for arriving passengers at Suvarnabhumi Airport. However, because airport authorities have cracked down heavily on unauthorized, third-party "VIP visa agents" selling access under the table, you must use the official, authorized channels. How to Access the Arrival Fast Track Official Channels * SAWASDEE Pass: This is the official product run by Airports of Thailand (AOT). You can purchase it directly via the official [SAWASDEE Pass Website](https://www.sawasdeepass.com/) or by downloading the Sawasdee by AOT mobile app. * Authorized Third-Party Platforms: If booking via travel platforms like Klook, Tripadvisor, or [GetYourGuide], ensure the package explicitly states it is the Sawasdee Pass or an officially bundled AOT premium service.

No more Fast track
You know very well that I have never sent you a private message. Nice try. You are just being silly like a small child, with your attention-seeking behavior. Your condition is treatable, please find professional help.

No more Fast track
It is explained in the link I posted.

No more Fast track
Please stop alarming people with untrue statements. How is it apparent that Fast Track is no longer available? Please provide an official link showing where you saw that Fast Track is closed. Suvarnabhumi Airport is managed by AOT. Their website currently shows Fast Track is operational, and you can book it for 2,700 baht if you do not qualify to use the Fast Track lane for free. https://suvarnabhumi.airporthai.com/fast-track/

No more Fast track
You have posted several times that you are 82 years old. Anyone 70 years old or older can use the Priority Lane, regardless of aircraft cabin class, so it won't be an issue for you. No need for you to pretend you have a disability by requesting a wheelchair.

Would You Sit 23 Hours In A Metal Tube?
I would gladly take a longer segment if it would reduce the number of flights to reach Bangkok. Between the layover time spent on the ground, time to climb to altitude, and descent time for landing, several hours are wasted with each extra flight segment of a trip. I just looked at an upcoming reservation from the east coast US to Bangkok. Printed total time on the ticket, including three flights and two layovers is 27 hours, 50 minutes. This is actual time spent traveling, disregarding time zones. And I chose the shortest trip duration available, many were more hours, some considerably more. Then add 90 minutes on each end, and the door to door travel time is 30 hours, 50 minutes. That's a pretty darned long travel day. Business class makes it tolerable. Economy class makes it hellish. That's why I choose business class flights to Thailand.

Issue with Photos
I have visited the Kukrit house, very near Sathorn Road. It is well worth an hour of your time if you're in the area. It's similar to the Jim Thompson house, in that it's made up of several antique Thai teak houses that were transported to the site. Unlike the Jim Thompson house, you can wander the buildings and grounds by yourself, no tour guides are required. On display is the former PM's beautiful collection of fine arts, ceramics, and Buddhist sculptures. If I remember, it only costs 50 baht for admission.

Heyhey!
The lyrics automatically generated by YouTube's closed captioning are not at all accurate. YouTube could really improve their CC greatly. I turn off CC when watching YouTube, since there are so many errors. A couple examples from the song Daydream Believer: CC - My shaven razores (sic) go cold and it sings Actual - My shavin' razor's cold and it stings CC - Cheer up sleepy jeans. You once thought of me as a white knight on his feet Actual - Cheer up, sleepy Jean. You once thought of me as a white knight on his steed
