Baster_Hobnail commented : What is the Thai phrase for "Please stay in one lane!"?

Baster_Hobnail commented : I read the same article and took things differently. I think the 15baht ticket is a flat rate for the first few months while they iron out any problems and maybe to encourage people to 'try it out'. The lowest fair on the BTS is 20 baht, but they do not charge 20 baht per station. Even if the journey is the same price as as a taxi, I would prefer the safety and speed of the train every time. The real issues are the lack of thought put into people moving luggage, but then these things will be dealt with as they are seen to be causing problems. Give it a year and it will be a good service. I just hope they tone down the advertising which blights the BTS.

Baster_Hobnail commented : Thai airport immigration staff barely care enough to look at you. Their emotions seem to range between cold indiffernce andf blatent contempt for tourists. It may be a dull job, but that is no excuse. As others have said, hand over your passport, stand still, do not lean on his desk and say thankyou at the end and nothing more. At the end of the day, as you enjoy your holiday, the ticked off looking immigration staff will not enter your mind.
