Phnom Penh

I've been flying back and forth from Saigon to Perth (via stopovers/connecting flights) on a number of different airlines, from full fare to budget. I've been on tiger, jetstar, singapore air, msia air, thai air and most recently air asia.

Hands down, air asia wins in the budget airline class. I flew from Saigon to KL to Perth. Fantastic service, clean airplanes, very sexy and cute air hostess's.
I had brought my own water bottle but nothing was said about it (i had kept it in my bag)
Flying back from Perth to Saigon Im going on Air asia. Baggage and fare is cheaper than any other airline. Yes tiger has cheaper fares but I want to bring back 30kg's of luggage and my fishing rods. It will cost more in baggage on Tiger than Air Asia. Fishing rods are included in your baggage weight with Air Asia whereas on Tiger you have to pay extra.

Fly Thai Air- at least on international flights there is a size and age requirement. Once they hit 30- they're out. If they can't fit into the uniform-they are out. I don't know dress sizes, BUT their uniform is like size 1.

Without a doubt, they are a wet dream cum true!!!

[QUOTE=Puta Playa]Thanks, a lot of people are advising in PM that PP has no real experiential or cost benefits over Pattaya, however, I am flying on FF miles and it appears that you need to book a year in advance to fly into BKK no matter what your FF level status is.[/QUOTE]Well here is what you should do. Fly into PP, sample the night life action and then fly to Pattaya or Bangkok on a cheap airline, (like 30-45 minutes flight). If you take the bus, the roads are now excellent but it will be an all day kind of ride and by the time you make it to Pattaya you will be too tired to shag. Trust me, you will love Pattaya. There is no comparison between PP and Pattaya. Pattaya has more ambience, bright lights, bars, gogo bars, discos street action than all of cambo. There is something for everyone there. There is an arab quarter, a Russian quarter, blow job street, soapy massages, the bdsm dens; there is more to see and do than in all of PP. You will have missed A LOT if you do not go. I shagged every night and I never looked for action away from my favorite spots. There is not enough time. Go see for yourself.

Just want to make sure people understood what I said earlier....
I didn't mean to say that Phnom Penh is a worthless destination for mongering. No. But if you have enough money and time to go instead to Pattaya, then it's a no brainer: go to Pattaya. Far far more on offer there. Same goes for Bangkok. Price difference not enough to justify the choice of PP.

PP has some places worth checking out, and some really cute girls, and many of them at quite low prices (though nothing like the old days). Just not enough of them.

I would guess there's 10s of thousands of girls very easily available in Pattaya. Same goes for Bangkok. In Phnom Penh, I think ones available to us foreigners (as tourists who are not too familiar with the place yet) is in the low hundreds.

So given the cheap flights these days, you have a choice of Pattaya/Bangkok or Phnom Penh, and I'm just saying it's an easy choice: go to Thailand.

Very cheap beer in Cambodia, expensive in Pattaya.

I visited Pattaya and Bangkok last year with my missus and saw very few girls prettier than her.

Guys would break their necks to get a look at my missus everywhere.

And the beer is so fucking expensive.

Carton of ancher here down to $10. 60.

Best thing about Pattaya is the golf courses.

My mate in the office here beside me says that beer can be as cheap as 45 baht in Pattaya-is this true?

In my opinion, Phnom Penh is good for the local expat, but not so good for the visitor.

[QUOTE=Wendella]One word: AirAsia.com or maybe that's 2 words... does ".com" count as a word? Then that would be 3 then. But if you are in PP, you are just a few hrs away from Pattaya, as the budget jet flies. No reason to stay in PP. And I do mean, no reason.[/QUOTE]

Ahh..wow! That is cheap..my gears are turning. The flights NRT-ICN-PNH-BKK would be a bear due to a day layover in Seoul. My options are limited on these FF miles to going through ICN to reach PNH.

I was RTFF over at ISG-Seoul...I hestitate to visit that shithole. Sounds like they are too good to even service the GI's who keep Kim Jong Il out of their backyards.

Maybe I can do NRT-TPE with asia air TPE-BKK without layover, we'll see. Otherwise, see you in PP. Thanks for the advice. I am ignorant of SEA but want to learn...someplace.

I am sorry for forgetting this info. While dirt cheap, AirAsia is a point to point carrier. After each flight you must retrieve your luggage and then check in for your next flight, then go back thru security. That's what happened the last time I flew with them. That does make for longer connections. BUT, on the other hand, one can afford to travel.
Happy Flying and Happy Hunting

[QUOTE=Fred Gold]While dirt cheap, AirAsia is a point to point carrier.[/QUOTE]That's never bothered me much. In fact it's a good excuse to jump out and spend a night wherever your first flight has taken you. (With Air Asia, that's usually KL, which can be a fairly entertaining place for a day or two.)

The biggest problem with Air Asia is that once you book and pay for your ticket, you better damn well fly on the day and flight you've booked. Trying to change it or, god forbid, cancel it, you'll pretty much lose every penny you paid. I once showed up at the airport with a ticket in my girlfriend's name that I wanted to use for myself. I was willing to pay any surcharge they wanted, but apparently that wasn't good enough. So I finally asked, 'What can I do with this ticket?' The counter guy helpfully said, 'Well, you can throw it away and buy a new one.'

That said, it's a really good airline!

Okay, well you guys have officially talked me out of PP. So your hunting grounds are safe for now. Just kidding. :) Thanks for helping me, I was thinking to be a good boy and go do something other than lay pipe, like maybe make an excursion up to SR or something from PP. But my inner monger (well, maybe not so inner) is telling me to go and do what I love..so now I am rebooked for Singapore and will find a hop over to BKK and make the pilgrimage to Pattaya. I can't wait to see if its better than Rio. Sure will be better than Japan, where I am right now. Any more mongering here, and I will go bankrupt.

I don't remember how long you said you had for this trip. If it was long enough, you could even take one or 2 evenings in PP before jumping to Thailand, just to sample the local offerings. (my advice would be to visit: 1. Martini, 2. St 136, 3. St 104, 4. Circee Club.) When you hit the ground in Thailand, if you are keen on Pattaya then just take taxi straight there (ask in Pattaya thread for tips on that) -- I'm more a Bangkok guy myself though. If you end up going there, stay in Sukhumvit area (and check out BKK hotels thread for ideas).

If you're going to visit BKK for a bit, I'd recommend seeing the girl who shoots darts from her pussy and hits balloons on the wall. Incredible sight!!! RTF for BKK and I'm sure there's the 411.

[QUOTE=Barba]Hello!

I am a great fan of listening to all kind of music. On of the styles I enjoy every now and then is Cambodian Rock from the late 60s and early 70s. Artists like Ros Serey Sothea / Ros Sereysothea (the queen of Cambodian Rock imho) and Sinn Sisamouth are good examples of what I mean.

Since I will have a few days in PP in April I would be super grateful for any advice on where/if I can enjoy this kind of music somewhere in PP. Optimal would be a bar packed with females and this music on the sound system, but any place will do.

Thank you!

You could bring your own disk to a bar and ask them to play it. The bad news is that any original recordings are usually in pretty bad condition. And I have never heard a decent live performance of this music by locals in Cambodia - usually these songs are murdered at wedding parties. But all the locals in PP know this music as in they can sing along to it.

The good news is that there is a band called Dengue Fever - a bunch of LA/California musicians with a Khmer female singer with a great voice who play this music very well. You can google them but I also suggest that you get their music. They have several albums and one documentary - you will find some of their albums in the russian market and the documentary is available in the better DVD shops. There are also a couple of local bands
who play this stuff and one of them has a couple of music videos with bands all done up like the 1960s in Phnom Penh but I don't know their name.

The only place I have heard Dengue Fever in a bar is a small place owned by an American who is big into music - it is on one of the streets off the river front but they play all sorts of music and so you have to ask for it specifically - and sorry, there are no girls but you can flirt with the presentable barmaid, if she is on that night.

This bar is on one of the streets that is parallel to 108 but I cannot be sure which one. It is on the right side as you walk down the street from the river - about 20 paces or less into the street. And he has those music videos I mentioned earlier.

IMHO, this music should be played everywhere in Cambodia because it is damn fine music, including venues which have girls. But it is not played in barrang baers because they think barrang won't like it as it is Cambodian music. But as this music was influenced originally by French ballads and then by American music, it is probably the most acceptable music to the Western ear compared to anything else produced in SE Asia.

Hi,

I will be in Phnom Penh this July and spend one week there. As a newbie (first time newcomer to sex tourist), I just wonder whether there is any good toregiuds/tax drivers availaB. I mean those guys really know good places in Cambodia. I have posted in 'Travel Plans & Announcements' but got only one reply. I can receive PM and hope here more replies from some generous big boys.

Thanks in advance

The last time I fly from Bangkok to PP is with air aisa 3 yr ago, they have a promotions one way is only around 70 USD no cancellation and one bag allowed, I have use air asia a few time always on time this is one of the fastest growing airline in asia have plan for flight to europe and us in the future.

But as this airline grow there are less promotions now flight and less cheap flight to be had.
