AirAsia keep sending me '990bht special offer' emails, but when I go to the website they aren't there. Sounds like all the special offers are a scam. When I can click and pay, without paging through nonsense, I'll go. Was offered a special deal from a girl but when I went, she wasn't there. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore the comments about '14 days jail'. That was when the guy was talking about bubble tourism. Some posters get confused easily. The hotel discounts are available on a case by case basis. I have been offered a discount in a hotel and I am a foreigner, but I do not get the 'buy the voters' vouchers and I have never done quarantine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreasyFingers Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Does the fellow know that it is low season. as @Swimfan said above you would normally get a 2-3 star resort for 1000 baht or less at this time of the year. He is only talking up the normal prices to make a discount sound good. The 2 star resort I used to stay in has closed even though it has the old style bungalows that were 350 baht per night.

Popular Post FitnessHealthTravel Posted September 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2020 6 hours ago, webfact said: Rooms that were 100,000 baht to foreigners are being offered to Thais for a few thousand. There are rooms here for 100,000 baht? Now that's BS, not even the Four Seasons is anything like that. Can't they even report then truth on even this type of story. 7 hours ago, webfact said: He said that rooms at 5 to 7 star establishments that were anything between 10,000 and 100,000 baht are now down to 3,000 to 5,000 baht 7 STAR ESTABLISHMENTS??????????

AirAsia is more annoying though - usually they offer only a few seats at special price and you can't see a list of discounted routes. I prefer to book when they have 20% off sale on all tickets. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilick Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Bangkok Airways is offering 4 one way flights to and from Koh Samui for 7,900 and to and from the rest of the country for 3,900. They own the airport here so not much in the way of landing fees. Must be a magical place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I've thought since my first trip in 2016. Who was so stupid to pay 1,st World top city prices and caused this excessive gouging.
