My deal wasn't that great....I thought $857 was a good deal and then I got Bob's email....oh, well...might have to book a second trip!

Kathie Jun 8th, 2009 08:20 AM

Hey, I still think $857 is a good deal! I just wish I had the time for a quick jaunt to Bali.

This deal is a real steal.
S'pore Airline has excellent service.
Its safety record is second to none.
The only accident I could recall was in the year 2000 when a SIA flight took off from the wrong runway at Taiwan Taoyuan Airport killing half of its passengers.

...nothing like a little air disaster reminder to make people excited about flying!

WOOHOO!

Talk about a buzzkill.

rhkkmk Jun 8th, 2009 11:53 AM

we are all booked for nov 13-29, 2009....the rhk's and the gpanda's

how about a GTG in bkk for thanksgiving??

Kathie Jun 8th, 2009 12:37 PM

Bob, you are going to be in Bangkok? We'll be in Bangkok for part of that time, after our time in Burma. I haven't nailed down all of the Burma arrangements yet, but we'll be glad to meet up with you and the pandas and anyone else in Bangkok then!

Smeagol Jun 8th, 2009 12:54 PM

Who even mentioned safety records? as you say Filmwill talk about buzzkill!

filmwill Jun 8th, 2009 01:07 PM

bob, are you changing your travel plans now? ...going in november instead of may?

that would be a bummer as i was so looking forward to hanging out with the girls (not you and andy, of course) :)

offwego Jun 8th, 2009 04:56 PM

I'm all over a BKK GTG in November.....

Kathie Jun 8th, 2009 06:05 PM

Lori, that would be great!

Femi Jun 8th, 2009 06:15 PM

Darn! Another bargain I can't use to my advantage! :(

Bob, when will you be in South Africa?

Hanuman Jun 8th, 2009 06:18 PM

So far I think there will be over 10 Fodorites visiting Thailand during November 2009.

Rhkkmk + 1
Gpanda + 1
Kathie + 1
offwego
Nywoman
Eks?
who else?
Filmwill?
Would be great if Katie_H can represent Fodor's over here.

Kathie Jun 8th, 2009 07:12 PM

Wow - what a crowd!

kuranosuke Jun 8th, 2009 07:23 PM

well, i was thinking about a nov. trip, but now, with this gtg, it might push me over the top.

rhkkmk Jun 8th, 2009 08:42 PM

ok here is our deal....it may kill us or cause the TSA to investigate us:

we are going to finland/russia from aug 24-sept 6
boston GTG oct 9-11
south africa oct 13-nov 4
thailand nov 13-29
bali and bkk?? and ?? may 14-june?

its a crazy year even after our 2009

Hanuman Jun 8th, 2009 09:12 PM

May I suggest a round the world ticket from NY - S.Africa - Bangkok - NY? Delay or extend the the S. Arica trip and you're set!

Kristina Jun 8th, 2009 09:19 PM

OMG Bob, that's one crazy schedule!

I admit, when I saw that deal, I considered it myself for a moment, but we are all set to leave for VN in 23 days. Can't see going back to Asia again so fast, no matter how tempting.
Instead, I'm feeling another trip to Rome coming on in October.
