You nailed it.

Nothing special about Oman Air. But don’t start me off about AirAsia. 😡

@Michael *******

Looking at the post you pasted, different sections of ‘economy’ are priced differently on different days. Emirates do not guarantee you can just switch your ticket without paying more. They guarantee there will be no charge just for changing. Re this thread - the author does not explain why they are unhappy with Oman Air, so who knows.

Did I say there were no buses from the Southern Terminal? No. And I specifically mentioned that there were buses from the airport. You know, that part where I say ‘there are buses from the airport’? Doubtless the person asking the question will be delighted you have a car. Bye now. 😊

@Dave *********

There are buses from the Northern terminal to many southern destinations, including Hua Hin.

In my early days in BKK I booked a trip to Samui starting from my hotel. After being picked up in a mini bus I was surprised half an hour later when the five of us were transferred to a pick up truck. After another 45 minutes I noticed we were passing the hotel I’d been staying at. Don’t book trips at your hotel. Find out where the bus leaves from and buy a ticket there. For Hua Hin it will probably be the Northern bus terminal near Pinklao, or the bus from the airport.

Sorry, but what’s the big difference there? It’s a short drive from Phuket to the mainland.

@Gerry *******

Right, so 4K a year. Not cheaper than other methods but far more convenient and likely better quality water.

@Gerry *******

Estimated cost please. 😊 I have a purifying system in Chiang Mai and I agree it’s much, much more convenient. However the system cost 6,500 baht and filters need replacing every 12 months or so for 1000baht +. There’s just no way it is cheaper even ‘in the long run’ than refilling at a shared station or having bottled water delivered.

@Gerry *******

I have a filter system, and I’d love to see your numbers showing how having one can work out cheaper than bottled water in Thailand. 😊 The most cost effective solution is using filling stations as mentioned. The problem is that it’s inconvenient.
