JohnB1945 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I'll bet its totally non smoking and you have to go to one of the filthy smoking rooms! Thai used to have a very pleasant smoking lounge for business class, then the stopped the smoking! Who pays the salaries? Customers or the health nazis?

Seems apposite: filthy smoking rooms for filthy smokers. As a non-smoker, it's pretty ghastly having to sit next to a stinking smoker when flying (and yes, they all stink). Perhaps they should have their own section on the outside of the plane. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 It looks and sounds to me as if it is in the same location as before. So it isn't new, it's refurbished. But new sounds better than tarted-up, doesn't it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a sigar room, so people can relax before a flight and enjoy their sigars. The people who smoke the fags can sit on the tarmac near the sewer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
