Bangkok Reports

Wow I had no idea BKK gogo bars required girls to work on 30 day contracts. Thai bar girls willing to work 30 days in a row? In Pattaya it's normally only 7 or 10 day contracts.

So do girls owe the barfine fee for each day they miss in those 30 days?

At most bars, girls can choose to work either on a 30-day contract or day-to-day. A 30-day contract pays better, and the girl is paid at the end of the 30 days. For day-to-day, the girl is paid at the end of the night. A 30-day contract usually allows the girl one day off each week, though a couple of bars allow only one day off every other week. If a girl who is on contract misses a day when she's supposed to work, she gets fined on the order of 1500 baht. If a girl switches from one bar to another, and then wants to return to the original bar, she often must pay to return, on the order of 10 K baht.

My eyes tell me huge difference between weekends and Monday Tuesdays.

Smart gogo bars spread out the girls' contracts to start on different days so that girls are spread out evenly during the week. Which gogo bars do you find have the largest differentiation on girl numbers between weekdays and weekends?

Bit Siri.

The whole Scene in Thailand has been die-ing the last few years.

Has it? When did you start going to Thailand and when we you last there?

Bit Siri.

Every day in Thailand is a "weekend".

Exactly! Which is why I'm asking Danny Duck on his expertise on which gogo bars are seeing the biggest number differences.

Sure there may be a few more girls working on a Friday or Saturday as many will continue to work on their "days off" if the days fall on weekends. However, I believe more girls are barfined on the weekends to offset the difference. At least this is what I find in Pattaya. I do realize this is the Bangkok thread though.

Generally the gogo's have the girls under 'contract' for 30 days, and they have to be present every day (except during that time of the month) so pretty much yes every day.

In Pattaya I'd say it's the same number every night (correct me if I'm wrong BB).

Correct. See above.

I've seen that concept posted before, but I've had several times where I bar fine a go go girl one day and see her independently for lower price a day or two later. That tells me that not all girls are on 30-day contracts.

On the other hand, Ive also had times where the girl told me that future dates must start in the bar.

Pre Covid, I would have to agree that the amount of dancers in Bangkok Go-go's on weekends are much higher than other days of the week, especially Monday and Tuesday. I think it's also true that the really smoking ones can be found more readily on the weekend though you had to be quick to avoid being beat to the punch by other punters.

I wonder if we will be asking that question again anytime soon? Now, it's just a vast wasteland.

In normal times (pre-covid) does the number of Nana Plaza gogo dancers vary much from a weekend night to a Monday or Tuesday night? In Pattaya I'd say it's the same number every night (correct me if I'm wrong BB). Just curious if Bangkok is the same or if more girls can work on the weekends without the requirement of working on the less busy days.

Every day in Thailand is a "weekend".

They can always bar fine themselves, but that cost money, and they would rather be working and making money towards their drink and bar fine quota.

I am going to post this here and in the Pattaya page. I am curious, Where is it best to travel to when tourism comes back? Bangkok or Pattaya?

If you are looking to relax: Pattaya.

There is nothing relaxing about Bangkok.

Where is it best to travel to when tourism comes back? Bangkok or Pattaya?

Simple answer. Both. They're only a 2 hour taxi ride apart. Fly in to Bangkok, stay 2 or 3 days, go to Pattaya for 2 to 3 days, then decide which you prefer. Most guys have a clear preference for one or the other.

Since all bars and massage places are "closed" now, Bangkok is the much better city to visit.

Like others have said, do both. I stayed in a nice hotel in Bangkok then took the bus to Pattaya on Saturday morning and found a small room in a guest house for two days. I spent Saturday night and Sunday night on walking street and checking out beach road and the sois off beach road. I forgot the name of the area but there are some bars and clubs named after a london metro and it was quite fun then. I took a bus back to Bangkok Monday morning and continued with my trip. Prices were a bit cheaper in Pattaya, but I didn't want to pay more for the hotel since I was staying only two nights. Pattaya was not for me and I preferred Bangkok.

Having said that, I don't know if anything is open or if you will have any luck at any of the traditional places. If Bangkok is closed down, at least you can still go shopping and see the Grand Palace, I think. If Pattaya is closed down, there's nothing to do.

I have never been to Patts as I love BKK but during this past year I've read a lot of Pattaya and watched many videos and whenever I'm next in Thailand I plan to go to Pattaya for a week to see for myself. Knowing me I will probably prefer Bangkok as I'm more of a city person.

How do you prefer to monger? Massage parlors favors Bangkok. Beer bar casual favors Pattaya. Outcalls favors Bangkok. Enough of a Go-Go and street walker scene can be found in both. If budget is a concern Pattaya is better. If looks are more important IMO Bangkok comes out ahead.

I used to split my time between the two, but if I had to choose one it would be Bangkok.

Ok my 2 cents. Go to Patts just to say you have been to the No 1 sex destination in the world. Stay half the time there and then come back to Bangkok for the other half.

Bangkok offers more to do and see. Plenty of pussy everywhere. Assume this is your first trip to Thailand.
