Good day to GC!! I am checking in from chiang mai since I have free extra minutes I had a flight a flight from bangkok to chiang mai and had zero leg room I could understand why people use knee defender.if the person in front of me reclined would have been in bad shape lol .my knees were hitting seat in front of me,drawbacks of being over six feet tall  


Ack!   Sorry you were so cramped!  I'm 5'11", so I'm usually just slightly uncomfortable in an airline seat.


It was an short flight I played mah jong on my tablet the whole way!!! Emirates definitely has much better leg room ,and cuter flight attendants for that matter. Chiang mai is pretty quiet and laid back.doesn't feel as hot either even when its 90+


Well, who doesn't like a good view?   Heheh


I wonder if it's pre requisite to work as emirates flight attendant you have to be very attractive 


Hello Mong !

 

Safe travels. I'm a fan of Emirates too. And yeah, I understand how you feel with cramped legroom ! 


Yeah if that person reclined in her seat I definitely may have lost my knee caps lol

Re: Garden Club Meeting - September 2014

So far Thailand has been pretty much cash only country from what I have noticed.the airline I flew from bangkok to chiang mai doesn't accept any foreign credit cards and restaurant at airport only accepts cash weird . also I have noticed places that do accept cc like to do it in this order mc,visa,amex,discover. Hope this hotel we are staying at now accepts cc lol.

Good morning all!

 

I've been away from the GC. It has been a busy few days at work. 


Hey bud, how's it going?


It's going well! How are you?

 

Also, great news. Apparently for the Prestige, we will be able to double dip. They will give us $250 on top of the current $200 Smiley Happy


Wait, how? Could you elaborate? Meaning if we use the $200 now we'll get the $250 in October? Or...


That's correct. According to the CSR that I spoke to, you will receive another $250 once the changes come into play. 


That's good to know. Technically, the T+C says that the $250 credit replenishes in December, so it sounds like you could get ANOTHER one if you use your $250 between October 19th and December.


Yup, that's correct! You're going to be making moneyyyyy Smiley Happy
