Hi gals
I am going BKK too...during the Nov period. Going for 5D4N. I am taking the Tiger airways, had a hard time logging in to book. My flight ticker costs me S$169. I booked Asia Hotel which is 1404Baht per night.
I am intending to go there to tailor my hubby's suits too. Anyone heard of Jackie's Tailor?

hi princessjen,
i called up the hotel today, they could not find my name. I panicked, so decided to call the thai travel agency. They said I have a confirmed booking and booking is usually under the travel agency name.Is it the usual practice? Anyone got any advice?The next time, I am gg to book direct to the hotel,suffer less duress and stress.

Hi Joy, unless ur hotel chop rooms under your travel agent name, so tis mean e hotel will oni see e agent name & reserved under it, like a middleman kinda of thing. Tis cld be a scenario tat y e hotel cant find ur name. So wat happened nxt is at an appriorate time, ur agent ll update e hotel with their customer names as batch update.
Tis is my version, hw abt e rest?

Hi win/andreal lee,
If this is the case, I am more fang4 xin1 coz my bf found out the spore agent is not NATAS member, so make me panicked again. Suggested that I call the hotel again to verify if there are any reservations under the thai travel agent name.
Will do that later in the office where i can IDD.
I m also compiling a list of shops, spa etc. Will post that once it's done.

Hi Princessjen,
can you help to ask your mgr is TR on 3 left, 3 right seating configuration?
Ok, will take ur tailor recommendation, Andreal, hope to MTM 2 pants as 1-2 days to complete is gd for mi, hope tat price/workmanship is gd too.
I believed hotel will pre-chop e.g. 20 rooms for a particular agency registered under their name in advance as part of biz arrangment so tat walk-in/online will nt be allocated to e 20 rooms as e hotel will set aside a diff. quota accordingly to walkin/online. Names change can be done at 1 go when bookings is cfm via your agency at a later stage.
Hi Sugarbabe, yes, renov. is impt & challenging as it progress but dun wori, Patrick is reliable!

tourao, if u going to bangkok, dun go to a seafood rest that looks very old and where u get to chose ur own seafood on the sport. i dun remember the name of the place but it's just behid a very big nite market the taxi driver likes to bring u there . their seafood is very expensive ++. a meal for 4 cost us 5000 baht. we got a shock of our lives when we saw the bill. = sing dollar 200.

Thanks princessjen. So u r familiar with airbus & boeing, huh? Coolz. I not too sure on tis cos I tot a client can get airbus or boeing to customise their plane accordingly to their preferred configuration like SQ giving more leg room space by reducing seating capacity as in e SG-NY flight.
Thanks, winnie. Veri detailed info indeed!
[OT for tis once]
Hi Sugarbabe, yes, u r rite, fr Apr-Jun, see my archive replies earlier in ho bee thread.

hi touraco,
yes, via directrooms.com. I've a confirmation email by them & tis is wat I'll print out & bring over there. I saw a reservation ID on e email, but while there is a reservation ID issued by directrooms, but if hotel didnt capture tis info
into their database, I'll also suffer e same fate as wat u feared juz tat I've a black-n-white to fight tis case.
Mine is with ABF for 1,760b per nite, but come to tink of it, take their bf for 5 consecutive morning? I dun tink so I wan so I've mailed to them to exclude ABF yday nite to bring dwn e price to 1,200++b, I'll pay on adhoc basis if I wan to eat their bf provided we rest well fr previous day "battle" of cox.

hi postpet,
i think it's usually 24 hours turnaround , but better to give me 2 days, think I will go tailor once i touch down on 11 nov.
Hi win,
Can check with the hotel if your data is captured. Think yours should be captured in ur name, unlike mine, which is under the thailand travel agent. I have not called to check mine yet, no time today.

Hi John,
looong time no cya here.
So far service from directrooms, but e last change I requested from them is to exclude breadfast for 5 nites, but while they managed to did tat, my no. of nites from 5 become 4, so where can we zzzz on e 10th Nov? anyway, ve emailed them to recify soonest...at e end is 285b cheaper x 5 nites. Touraco has better rate from asiatravel at 1404b as mine is 1475b.
Hi Andreal, yup, if possible at joy collection. For me, pants only, dun noe wat my wife wan, it ll be more clearer when we go dwn & take a look at their stuff/pricings. The thing is, tis is a last min decision cos we are nw discussing on tailoring...dun noe ll materialise or nt.
