Do any of these agencies service Don Mueng? I'm going to be flying in via Air Asia in the evening so want to try find a service which offers the fast track and taxi to Sukhumvit.

 Bangkok Flight Services, or BFSPremiumServices  is no longer in that business..

Try https://www.limousine.in.th/fast-track-immigration.html

I have used them when arriving at Swampy and Don Muang.

Definitely worth the money at DM when a shed load arrive from China.

Arrived today from Pattaya.

Leave late evening of the 7th.

Anyone want to meet up then give me a PM.

I've used:

  BFS ([email protected]) for BKK and

  Bangkok Airport VIP services ([email protected]) for DMK

  The DMK one is a definite must for me as plane-loads arrive from China everyday.

  Well worth the 850 baht (BKK) 1100 baht (DMK)

  Not sure where some of these posters are getting charged  $100USD?

  I think you are getting ripped off a tad.

Unless you know ahead of time which planes are arriving at the airport when yours arrive, then it is a bit hard to predict the queues.

I can walk for miles, but what I can't do is the centimetre-a-minute shuffle in the immigration queue.

It does my knees in.

I would rather breeze though VIP and grab a seat at the carousels and wait for my checked in luggage.

San miquel light is the one for me

Pattaya Mar 09 to Mar 23

PP Mar 23 to Apr 08

Bangkok Apr 08 to Apr 12

While recovering between shags I am up for a few games of pool and talking bullshit!

Hi guys,

I'll be arriving on PP on either April 23 or 24, depending on Hanoi turns out. Also planning to head down to Sihanoukville for a night or two.

Hi BHP,

  Good stuff.  

  Maybe catch up for a beer and a game of pool at the Walkabout or relax at Golden Sorya and watch all the FL pass by.

  I will be staying at Riverside Suites on the corner of Sisowhat Quay and Street 136.

  I was all booked to go to Snooky last Nov but cancelled it (Cambodia Angkor Air flights kept shifting)

  I could be persuaded to take a peek for maybe a night or two myself this time.

  Have you been before?

Thanks for the replies fellas.

I did find the earlier thread.  Thanks for that Scuttler.

I think, after reading all the pros and cons, that  I will keep my booking with Heaven@4.  

Unless I find a better deal. :)

If you want to monger you need a hotel that is Girl Friendly i.e. does not charge a visitor fee.

 

Ambassador Hotel in Sukhumvit Soi 11 charges 800 bahts, as I found out. So it's off my list now.

 

Rajah Hotel in Soi Nana is run down and ghastly.

 

Web site Bangkok Tonite has a list of GF hotels.

I used the Ambassador in Nov 2013.

I had booked for two and never had any trouble.

I was in the new tower wing and didn't have to go anywhere near reception, so that might have had something to do with it.

Once, a staff member asked my TG and I where we were going, but didn't stop us.

 MyTG had stayed with me on several occasions in Citrus 13 and President Palace so I trusted her and didn't bother to have her hand in her ID at the Ambassador.

Hi Andy,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I have a Deluxe room booked for 7 nights from 17th Apr.

  I haven't paid for it yet.  

  I got one of those Agoda deals, cheap rate about $52 US/night, book now, pay later.

  I'll keep my eye out for any better deals near Soi 4  before I pay for it on Apr 9.

  I had one of those rooms with the full length glass looking into the bathroom when I was at the Mecure resort on Koh Chang.

  My 'shy' TG would always pull down the blind before showering, let alone using the toilet 5555.

Hi,

  Has anyone stayed at Heaven@4 on Soi 4?

  It is on the right hand side about 300 metres up the Soi from Sukhumvit.

  Any issues, noise etc..

BKK April 10ish - 16ish

 

And April 24-27

Hi USAguy.

Never the Twain...

We just miss other again by a couple of days! :rolleyes:

Landing at Swampy on the 9th April.

  Pattaya          09th - 17th April, then

  Bangkok        17th - 23rd April, then

  Phnom Penh  23rd - 29th April

Hi all,

Well I stayed at the Citrus 13 from the 16th to the 21st of Oct. First off, when I arrived it was raining cats and dogs and soi 13 floods at its lowest point which happens to be right at Citrus 13, so for two days running, you had to either roll your trouser legs up or hire a tuk-tuk back to the steps of the hotel.

All part of the Bangkok experience and it didn't dampen my mood.

As for the hotel, well, I was in an Executive King for about $75/day and it as roomy enough, with a nice big bathroom with separate shower (waterfall and/or the usual detachable shower head) and bath.

The bed was big enough for three and the tv was a good size for the room and took a USB stick with my movies without any trouble.

Breakfast is standard western fare with some local dishes thrown in.

The staff are courteous and friendly and have no issues with "guests".

There is a roof top pool which winds it way around the elevator shaft that brings you there, and the lad on the bar was congenial and keen to please.I got him to make a Margarita with my recipe.

Overall I give an 8/10. Nobody is perfect.

Hi all,

I now have a Thai mobile number (in my profile).

I am holed up in my hotel on Soi 13 waiting for the rain to stop and get some shut-eye.

The flight got in a bit earlier than the 6:30am schedule.'

Got thru immigration via the VIP route and bought the Thai sim and got to my hotel by about 7.30am.

If any BMs want to meet up today or the next few days then give us a call/sms.

After a very long year I return to the LOS Oct 8th. Staying till Nov 20th. Suk  Soi 18. I'm always up for meeting for frosty beverages. Sounds like maybe we should plan another pub crawl for latter half of Oct? 

Hi fyrfly,

  I'd be keen to meet up. First couple of rounds are on me!

  I'll be landing at Swampy on the 16th Oct so I'll be ready to hit a bar in the arvo or evening.

  I am staying in Soi 13 but don't have an preference of where to meet.

  I'll be getting a Thai sim card when I land and will post the number in my profile asap.

I'll be back in Bangkok on the 4th - 7th Nov.

I'll be returning from a Laos/Cambodia visit.

Before that, I'll be in Bangkok 16th - 21st Oct.

Only 80 or so days to go....

Quick someone lend me a Tardis.  I can't wait any longer!!!

Hi Rowyco,

  I'll be landing at Swampy at 6.30am 16th Oct.

  I will be staying in Soi 13 until the 21st Oct (off to Laos and Cambodia) but I will be back on the 5th Nov (and staying in Soi 11) for a few days.

  I'd be keen to meet up with fellow Bms for a chat and a few beers.

  My last visit Oct 2012 was brief (on an Intrepid tour) but I did manage to pop into Mango Massage.

  I would also be keen to kill a few hours at a nearby golf course, so if any other golfers are about at this time it would be good diversion.

  My dates are:

    16th - 21st Oct and 4th - 7th Nov
