I'm pretty sure that they just want to check if I have an onward trip or a visa... but I'm a bit worried because I called the company and couldn't confirm me anything, just "go to the airport and ask there".

Thank you for your reply!

I think so, but I'm a bit worried because I have just 3 hours in the airport prior to flight departure.

As said, I've an onward flight to Vietnam, because I'm going to travel through SEA those months. I'll enter Vietnam with the 15-days visa exemption for my nationality.

Thank you for your reply!

Madrid, Spain. I've checked in online in the past with that company in that airport, that isn't the issue. It's something regarding my "travel documents"

It's not her case: only one previous visit to the Kingdom, back in 2014 ;)

I know they can ask, that is the reason I'm a bit worried. She is coming back to our home country - she is in her holidays, must return to her work - but I'm not sure if the flight back home from Phnom Pehn is enough proof for inmigration in the case they ask...

Tnx Tod. We'll flying with Cathay, with stopover in HK. Never had asked me for an onward flight on my home country when traveling to Thai with other companies (Qatar and Thai Airways)

BTW, both go and return with the same company.

Anyway, we'll do the online check in, so I think that is no problem: if they ask for an onward travel we can book one cheap Air Asia and then do again the check in...

Thank you Philip! :)

Good news. How do you know what ATM gives dollars? Do the machine have any visible sign, or something in the welcome screen?

@Tod ********

I think I didn't explain well. That's my doubt, in fact: if I'm in Cambodia heading to Thailand, it's a bad idea to get riels because they're worthless in Thailand, so I must get dollars, but, where can I get US$ in Cambodia? Any ATM? Over the counter in a bank? Withdraw riels and then go to a exchange house?

BTW, I'm not exactly a suspect of "nomad beggar" :D I'm 38, from an EU country and while using a backpack, I don't look like a classic backpacker (not tattoos, not dreadlocks, not Hawaiians, not Chang tank top...)

Last visit to Thailand, 4 years ago, never asked me to show cash, but I'm reading that nowadays it's a more common issue at some borders.

Thanks Steven :)

So, my doubt is: what currency are you carrying? I think you can't exchange some currencies outside their countries, so you can't carry Lao KIP or Cambodian Riels to Thai and then exchange it to THB, can you?

Are you getting 20.000 bath in US$ while in any of those countries? Or can you exchange KIP or Riels to THB in Thailand?
