I'm due to fly in Sat via Dubai. called my travel agent who performed a miracle and booked the last seat on a flight to Singapore where at least I can get my multi O visa and either try to either fly up to Bangkok or train it. So I still have my Emirates flight to Bkk or I have the option of taking the Singapore booking. Can fly to Phunkt for $275 but is even harder to get out of there to Bangkok on buses.

The trouble is I am carrying a bag full of warm jackets for my family and a large toy for my 7 year old son who was hoping to see his dad at swampy who he hasn't see for 3 months! Fahn cahns!

Should have named the thread "Bangkok or Bust"

Must be some interesting tales of getting in our out?
