Puuuh - your height will be a big problem in economy class in every airline.

i suggest you do your best to get a seat at emergency exits - here you have much more space.

for me direct flights work best. entertainment programs on board are superb - no time to be bored 🙂

Tourist is 30‘days with an option of a few more days. everything else is not tourist - whatever you want to call it.

don’t take things so personal - live your life.

Legal ? then we have a different view in what is legal and what is not. either you are a tourist - entry free for 30 days - or you stay longer - then you have to pay a fee. with border hopping you avoid taking your part in financing society. i wouldn’t call that “legal” - for me that’s cheating.

As far as i know you can simple’s buy an elite visa for a specific time. so that would be the legal version of staying in thailand longer than tourist visa allows right ?

Same here - but we do everything to prevent them from coming or send them home again.

but that means in the end - i have to be better and not be like them.

and what’s the problem in getting a 6 month visa ?
Jan *******
I always wonder - whoever tries to cheat their lives through thai laws - would they accept the same by a few hundred thousand people from other countries coming to their homeland ?
Jan *******
No offense, but isn’t that better than getting rejected at immigration at BKK airport ?

A flight is only under european law if :

it starts or lands in europe and

if it’s the longer part of the journey.

so - Singapore to Dohar (8 hours) and then Dohar to Munich (6 hours) = no european law

that’s what i learned the hard way during covid 🙂
