RayRay Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hi, I'm sure someone has done this in the past, but thought I would run it by the board to see if there are any obvious flaws in my plan. My 30-day visa expires on 10 April as such I need to get the heck out of here tomorrow. Air Asia can get me round trip to KL (same-day) for 6600 TB. Is there any rule stating I have to be out of Thailand for more than 24 hrs? My current plan is to leave on the 7:00 AM flight from BKK and get back to BKK at ~14:50.

TroyinEwa/Perv Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Nope. But have a ticket leaving again as that may be asked for on the return. Rare to be asked for but is required. Also, be aware of the 90/180 day stay rule. I don't know if it's been done away with or enforced much if it's on the books as I get confused easily. If this is your third 30 day entry, they may start checking your docs a little closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Do an online air reservation, print it out in case you need it. usually you have 24 hours to pay for the air ticket and is unpaid, it just gets canceled. Immi won't know the difference and if they check, there will be a reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 May be cheaper to go to Penang. Stay over night, return the next day. Georgetown is less hassle than KL. p.s. I thought the 90/180 day rule had been done away with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Ray, I dont know what committments you have in Thailand, but I would advise staying a couple of nights in KL if you can afford it. For one, its a crazy city, and makes even Bangkok seem 'normal' as far as crowds and traffic. More importantly, a night or two at the Beach Club isnt the worst way to kill a few hours. Georgetown, by contrast, is quieter but significantly more boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 I got a freebie on my first visit to Georgetown in 1974. Of course, I was a bit younger then. A neighbour a couple of years ago picked up waitresses twice in Georgetown, one Chinese-Malaysian and the other a Malay Muslim. He told me he'd always wanted to shag a Muslim. There is a bit of nightlife in Georgetown, though much more in KL. Still, if you live in Thailand, you don't go on a prowl in Malaysia. Malaysia's "entertainment" is more of the knocking shop variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorldFun Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 sure KL, SillyP & even Penang may have interest to the cultural traveller, but NOT for a sex tourist right or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 errrr, wrong, but YMMV. Certain areas in each city has entertainment...or so I heard :hubba: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayRay Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Made the trip there and back in half a day with no problems. No questions asked leaving or coming back so all is well. I lived in KL for a year before moving to BKK so no need to go out and see the sights. Been there done that. Don't get me wrong, I like the place but wasn't in the mood to stick around any longer than necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
