USVirgin Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 BB: that sucks. My dad somehow survived 9 years of that treatment while dealing with cancer too in his last year. Imagine going through that every other day and the docs recommending chemo on your days off. Good luck to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 My phone was down all morning, just came back. No idea what that's all about ... no reports of the RS attacking the phone company. The curfew has been extended through Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 OH, why the no Standby are not allowed???The airlines changed the policy? I think what OH means is that in order to travel to airport during "Curfew Hours" you need a valid ticket to prove you have a flight to catch. A Standby ticket is not endorsed with flight details until ticket holder arrives at airport and therefore not a valid travel document under State of Emergency.

Other part is, the company cannot deal with a long list of Standbys getting stuck and needing to be re ticketed on other carriers and all the other problems we cause, after all they make little or no money off us. BKK is, I believe, still the #1 destination for airline employees...at least at our company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting, didn't think they compiled such stats but, come to think of it, the industry has cooperative working groups for just about everything, so I shouldn't be surprised. Working for an Asian airline in LA, I was the sole weirdo flying to BKK twice a year. It would have been nice to be part of the majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Michael Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 I guess our next night out will be Sunday 23rd now! But if the curfew is at 21:00 - that is past my go home time anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is so-so ok.... mother of 9, diabetic, kidney failure and open heart surgery 6 years ago, still a strong woman at 68. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 With the extended curfew I wonder if Thailand will experience a mini population boom in late Feb 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
