Re: Flying into Thailand, latest updates

Hi

Hopefully somebody can help ........ If flying back into Thailand and your flight is scheduled to arrive in the early hours of the morning, do you book the one night "test and Go" hotel for the previous evening, or for the actual date the flight arrives?

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Laptop Charger in Hua Hin?

Hi,

I could do with a laptop charger ......

Is the old shopping mall open, or 3rd floor Market village perhaps?

I would rather not buy from Lazada if possible, so if anyone knows where I might obtain one it would be appreciated.
