[QUOTE=Rjsss212;1404021]What does "best" mean to you?[/QUOTE]Fair question. I don't mind carrying my bags on a train so I was wondering if the train was faster and as convenient as a taxi. I know it's not door to door service, but if it's faster and cheaper then I would consider it over a taxi.
If a taxi is not much more $$ then I'll go that route.
[QUOTE=Sammon;1404718]Do not know why you went to BKK airport. You should have gone to Ekamai and there are direct air con buses going to Pattaya every hour.

What is the best / easiest transportation for our group of 4 people?
Thanks, Gumbie

Thanks, Gumbie[/QUOTE]Cheapest option is the bus from the airport to Jomtien and then take the bahtbus to central Pattaya. [url]http://www.airportpattayabus.com/2012/[/url] That will cost you less than 200 baht per person.
Most convenient is to take a taxi, but you will need two taxis for a group of 4. Estimated cost per person about 600 to 800 baht.

Most times of the day the train + BTS combination is faster unless you have to go to a part of Bangkok that is not easily reachable by BTS. Price about 150 baht.
The taxi is of course more convenient and except during rush hour only slightly slower than the train. From the airport to "our" sukhumvit area between 300 and 400 baht.
[QUOTE=Sammon;1404718]Do not know why you went to BKK airport. You should have gone to Ekamai and there are direct air con buses going to Pattaya every hour. Cost is about 150 Baht.[/QUOTE]124 baht to be exact.

Thanks, Gumbie[/QUOTE]Email one of the taxi services and ask for a van for 2000 baht.

[QUOTE=Bionicman;1404793]Maybe not All Airlines Fly there[/QUOTE]Topic is bus transport to Pattaya, not airplanes.

Topic could even be airport, as far as I can see.[/QUOTE]Oh boy. One guy said he went to airport to take the bus to Pattaya, another replies he should have took it at Ekkamai station.
We should move on now (smiles).
Yes, I hear you. I would do the same thing, but not 11 times!
However I respect your choice.
[QUOTE=Luvpuss; 1404708]There is a SW I see just about every morning I am in town. She looks for me. Usually about 8am on Nana.
Why I see her? Because she is cute, fun, has a Jlo ass, licks my ass, sucks my cock, fucks me like the devil, and wants me to spray my "coconut juice" into her mouth and she eats it.
Good enough reason?[/QUOTE]
Come back from a 20 day trip tp to yangoon, BKK, Pattaya so for anyones interest I will offer my views regarding and in comparison to with each place.
Yangoon.
Hotels are over priced and for what you get terribly standards, Food wise I don't like the taste is better than laos or Cambodia but because it has a indian influence its not to my likeing. Transport wise its not that great but due to the smaller size its acceptable.
Day time activities, are limited, tried the massage and its not good and not worth the money conpared to vn.
Not many options for ST, but LT is the winner compared to vn, and beats most places except AC. Go to JJ entertainment and you can get 18-20yr old freelancers fro 50k or about 56usd. These girls are very innocent and cute, ud have to be a real ugly troll not to have these girls fight to get your attention. So go yangoon if LT is your thing.
Bangkok.
The usual places I used to stay was around sukumvit, but now as the place is being invaded by girls backpacking and couples and groups on vacations I have now decided to avoid it as the hotel have gone up in price due to all the increased demand.
I checked out nana, and whilst I agree there are alot of cuties in rainbow 4, I wasnt preparted to pay 500BF. 2000st and have the st last 30-45mins due to of the japs and other asians, tho I saw plenty of white guys take from rb4 as well.
The other bars also contained come cuties but nothing that would say exceeded the quality found in SK.
I checked out thermae, the girls ages have gone up and the quality down, the older gals asking 1000St or more I overheard a guy being quoted 2000St.
Beergarden was quite bad with the older girls wanting 1000St def not my tasstes.
I checked out Baccara in soi cowboy, and again like my comments on rb definately some cuties there but nothing that would make me pay 600bf. 2000st, like all the japs and ang moh who left with girls.
Where I spent most of my time was in SK, the biggest club had very similar girls to those found at nana and cowboy, I agree definately not in the same huge numbers but whilst I was in Bangkok I took 4 girls. 1 for LT the otehr ST, I paid between 1500-1800ST, and 2000LT. The st usually lasted 1-1. 5hrs I never felt rushed and I got kissing, DATY a decent BJ wouldn't say the best BJ and as many positions as I wanted. I never feklt rushed. So I would definatly go there again even when the largest club recently increeased it to 2000 ST.
Bangkok soapies 2000-7000 price range again for 1. 5 service not a bad option defe some cuties in the 2000, the higher priced range offers companionship supposedly they uni students part timers or otehr maketing.
Pattaya.
TYhis place is now fulled with Chinese tour gps, Russian holiday makers and generally lots of couples with kids, so this has made accodation choises limited and the cost going up, howver you can still find good guest houses.
The beer bars generally has older and uglier women and supposedly tehy are asking fro 1000+300bf, I saw none that really would make it work me paying that.
The gogo bars the girls are definately BKK standards, in the past BKK gogo bars the girls def better than patttaya but now I would say they are on par. But now the cost of girls has gone up in Pattaya 600bf and 2000St tho I got the feeling I could reduce down to 1500ST.
That being said there isn't much difference between pricing of Pattaya.
The coconut bar. Filled with oldies and ladybodys. The old ones are asking 700ST the cute ones 1000St, again none that really made me feel I should take.
The off duty gogobars found at the discos supposedly at 5-6am you can get girls for 1000LT ie 6-12noon. Again this isn't my style as I'm a bonk moning person and if I have spent the whole nite hunting I wouldn't be in the mood to bonk at that time just so I can save money.
I don't like disco, in my mind nothing is sadder than going into a disco and seeing a 40-50yr old man trying to relive his youth in a disco, regardless if he is with syt or not, call me narrow minded but its not something I think is a good look.
So in Pattaya I spent most of my time in soi 6 with gogo quality gals, sure you have to look to find them, and tehre has to be a measure of luck, but there I got unruished sessions for 700+300barfine and use of their ST rooms. The type of girls I like may not have big tits, may not speak any english, may not be tall and may not be fair, and so often they CMI in ang moh or jap orientated bars, but iof anyone has met me or seen the girls I like, they will no I'm not one to fish from the bottom of the barrell.
Pattay soapies 2000-3000 range in my view the girls same pricing as BKK but lower quality so not worth the effort.
In my time in thai, I got a GFE 90% of the time in vn its 60-70% of the time, LT are expensive in Vn St and BJ are the bargains.
Over all I like the advantages I have here in vn but trips to thai and AC are a definate must. In June ill go to sumatra and revisit indonesian gals and ill report my findings
[QUOTE=Harold444;1404911]2000 st at R2, 2500 st at R4-whats the deal with that. R4 girls are not 25% better in quality! Or anotheor way R2 girls are not 20% less in quality than R4 girls.[/QUOTE]These Rainbow girls are such a bad value these days. About 8-9 years ago, I paid girls 1000 ST, gradually 5 years ago. 1500, then become 2000 since about 3 years ago, and now some girls are pushing 2500, I am sure it will be a trend in all Rainbows in a year or 2.
I was in R1, 2.4 about 2 weeks ago. I talked a few girls, and the 2000 seem to be the standard, except a few cuties in R4, they want 2. 5k, but I think even these cute ones would go at 2k if you bargain for it, because they will be back in the bar in 30 min, they probably won't even want to leave the Nana premise.
I have not bar fined any Rainbow girl for a long time. 3000-4000 total for a ST without much service and usually rushing and mediocre attitude do not really justify the money, these places are now solely for newbie tourists.
