After soo many posts here, you would believe that fear of beeing denied entry would be one of the biggest. 

They should be denied entry.. Paranoia is catching.

the only time i had lost luggage was visiting my Dad in rural Tasmania (read, middle of bl-oody nowhere!). I had to borrow some of his underpants for several days til they found my luggage in Melbourne. No son should have to endure that! Taught me a lesson, now in my carry-on I carry a spare shirt, socks and a couple of underdaks.

 

Might have to go back on my meds to stop the nightmares again.

yeah, wearing your Dad's underwear is almost incestual lol..

Very few genuine tourists would be following the trails and tribulations 'border hoppers' through these pages. So why should 'once a year' tourist be concerned?

Same applies to the poster who said extortion by police/army is a concern.

If you have you passport and wallet almost everything else can be dealt with or potentially avoided

The respondents are not checking their Tickets, passports, and wallets, frequently, before departure!!? I do!! Not getting on your flight surely has to be the biggest concern.

Katoy or drunk monks.  Insane wives.  Taxi drivers.  Beggars.

When travelling around my biggest fear is getting a puncture on my scooter.

My biggest fear would/is be travelling on the roads in Thailand.
