My national online newspaper stated that flights to the USA-with drastically sharpened safety-were for 60% on time, and the rest up to 20/30 mins late. Neither did it state that passengers were required/asked to come much earlier as before.

having made some 60+ returns EUR-BKK/or nearby in Asia, and flying this evening toward snow, I cannot really recall having any experience. The normal overbooking/upgrade 2-3 times, lost luggage-never on these routes (but more to/fro USA), and then the through the years gradually sharpened safety restrictions (could easily once take all in a small cabin-bag years ago for 1 week holiday-impossible now). I understood the sharpened safety was mainly to/from the USA-but in airports where there is screening in general and not at gate (as BKK/Swampy has also recently switched to)-that will be impossible to differ.

seems more like another history-recall here: for me that would be Midnight Cowboy-closed some 15 years ago, in Sapan Kwai/BKK, when it was led by that elder Singapore gentleman. In general bars that ''allow'' more easy interacting between customer and boy-without directly being pressured into buying him a 250 bt. drink. The early time Sunee-Pattaya open air bars, when drinks were like 20 bt.
