At our age, speedy isn't something we worry about, lol I'm out of likes for the day....what's the purpose of limiting how many I wonder?

Since I've followed my own advice of not feeding the Gremlins after midnight, I've been good. Nothing good happens after midnight, especially in Brasil.....I bring trusted guys back to my room if I want to stay up and enjoy the night.

India has been on my bucket list for a long time, but never had the chance, or good flights to do so. While looking for award business flights to BKK/Indonesia/Manila and seeing limited to zero availability for anything decent, I thought, let me check India 🤔 I found Bos-Ist-Dxb-Ccu... Turkish connection to Emirates and Emirates, for 88K United miles- JACKPOT!! Everything else I found from USA (almost any city) to Bkk was 200k+ miles....up to 500k, ridiculous. So that was the start of the planning stage that has lead to me booking a 8 week away from home (6 weeks in Asia) trip. Turkish is one of my favorite airlines and was my 1st time on Emirates..... because of a typhoon in Calcutta, they airport was closed and Emirates delayed their flight by an additional 8 hrs, so 12 hrs in Dubai. So they have me a chauffeured BMW to/from airport and a Marriott Marquis Dubai room, to which the front office manager upgraded me to a suite, because she was from Jakarta and was impressed/happy that I was a lover of Indonesians (I'm sure she knew the men, lol) I never had plans of visiting Dubai, but this 12 hr layover has given me 2nd thoughts....so much action on the apps, but I was too tired to do anything more than look/chat. Kolkata is a good arrival airport I guess, very easy and not CRAZY like Delhi or Bombay as I was told, plus less than a 2 hr flight to BK afterwards. I'd been talking to several guys on X, Blued, Grindr before my arrival to find out some info....not many profiles pics and was a pain in the ass to filter out flakes. I stayed in contact with a guy that spoke English well and wasn't a money boy that likes "old" guys....wasn't very flattering, but 40's-50's was his definition of old, lol....so a compliment too???? 1st night went really well, we had very hot sex...but it became apparent that he wasn't a drinker, anyone that knows me , knows I like to have a few drinks, lol I stayed at the Lalit Great Eastern Hotel and is VERY gay friendly...I later found out that they have drag queen story book hour and my 2nd night a gay community Halloween party, which was so much fun, My Indian friends said I'd be popular because I'm a white foreigner, which I assumed because it's happened in so many places. I wasn't prepared to what extent here....I felt like I was a movie star, Tom Cruise or Harrison Ford, age didn't matter...was amazing yet weird... I was the exotic guy in the bar, lol So, the non-drinker guy tried to keep up with me, which didn't end well for either of us...him vomiting in the bushes, sleeping on the bathroom floor and me in bed alone typing this trip report 😂 I met a guy, a little thicker (chunky) than I like, but very manly and my type otherwise.....we have plans for tomorrow, will see how it goes. These pics are from the party and bushes, to give you an idea how it was....I've been planning my March trips, waiting to see how I liked India, I will include other cities in the itinerary in the south of India, as they aren't as hairy as the north, I'm told.

The reasoning why they don't is to keep the riff raff away, which I think might be learned from experience.....

We might disagree on many subjects, and I accept that for whatever reason..... as far as Airlines....you're totally out of your league. I'd love to hear @paulsf opinion on this ....he's flown like 5 million miles and monitors airlines/flights pretty closely. @Moses how many flights/countries have you been to? btw, I've only flown 2-3 million miles, over 100+ cruises and 75+ countries.....so pay me no mind. Forgot to mention, worked for JPM Chase in the Executive Office for a couple of years 🤷‍♂️ (I love this Emoji too)

And your country doesn't do anything that affects it's businesses and citizens.... That was a long trip say western airlines are shooting themselves in the leg to end up blaming it on the government.... Aeroflot really isn't very competitive in many markets, yet I'm sure that's no ones fault, except for the USA 😉

It's a hangout of his, is why I asked....

I wish...real life experience, too many times....

So your interpretation is different...why you assume they (west) are shooting themselves in the leg, when it might be a viable business decision, revenue vs expense? Or just programmed to think that way?

Have you met @gayinpattaya ?

For some reason, from the subject line ... I thought @Olddaddy was somehow involved.....or was he 🤔

where are they coming from, if other Asian countries Western airlines wouldn't have transported them to begin with. I'm pretty sure the airlines have more pertinent, useful data that applies to them than you are quoting , no?

He's moved to Florida, doing ok.....but I'm sure struggles with the typing/texting due to health reasons.

As long it isn't George Bush, good slogan 😉 Was that last night this week, or next week?

You're not familiar with my travels apparently or the prices Thailand vs Brazil for example 🤷‍♂️

My best sex has usually been with guy next door types....the better looking, the more time they spend looking in the mirror 🤷‍♂️

I've experienced it so many times over the years when we're discussing prices and they say, such and such a client pays thousands to just watch him J/O, or talks about the iPhone they bought, other gifts.or something along those lines, to which my canned reply is I'm not him...... business is business...

There wasn't an iPhone yet....gotta maintain their status, it's much more important today than back then. That's just one example........... sex is transactional with them, so be it. TONS of stories about how when the shoe is on the other foot, where the guy has the upper hand and we bend to their needs/desires..... not always with a satisfactory outcome........it's a 2 way street.... if they blow your mind in sex, no need to get like a little school girl and start throwing cash at them either, see if round 2 or 3 are as good, and take it from there. Or why stop at 2k in Pattaya... buy a motorbike, laptop or a 3 baht gold chain... if you're going to be generous, do it, lol

I miss the old Fragata

It's been talked about on here before...if you go to Colombia then to Brasil, it's not needed, only if you're coming FROM a yellow fever country is it needed

you can check before sending...then you'll know for sure.

Everything in Pattaya is less expensive...cost of living, rent, hotels, drinks, etc... why is Indonesia cheaper than BKK why is NYC more expensive?

we have to investigate this further when you give me a tour of the massage shops.....maybe we can do some marching around.

Keep in mind you're in Pattaya not BKK....setting a new guys expectations too high isn't healthy either, no?

I'm not into kissing, but like to hom.... whenever I initiate this on a guy, they've all lit up that I know about it and it seems to excite them as well
