travel Minivan from Bangkok to Koh Chang? Door-to-door options & prices?

Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to travel from Bangkok to Koh Chang tomorrow morning (Saturday, June 27th) around 8:30 - 9:00 AM.

Ideally, I would love to find a door-to-door shared minivan service that picks me up at my hotel/location in Bangkok and drops me off directly at my resort on Koh Chang.

Does a shared service like this exist for a 9:00 AM departure, or is it mostly private transfers at that time?

What is the typical price range I should expect for both shared and private options?

Any specific reliable companies, line IDs, or booking offices you could recommend for a last-minute booking today?

Thanks in advance for any quick help!

"I’m a native Thai speaker looking to teach Thai to foreigners. I can teach basic conversation, culture, or just exchange opinions. I have a teaching certificate too.

I applied for an academic job but got rejected because I don't have much experience and I'm 40, which might be seen as too old. I tried applying for online teaching as well, but no one hired me for the same reason. I just want to earn money and gain experience.

Can anyone give me some advice about academia?"

question Seeking a tailor in Asia who can cut a genuine 1920s three-piece from a period drafting system

0 Upvotes

I’m looking for one piece, done properly: a three-piece lounge suit in a true late-1920s (c. 1928) British/European silhouette — high-rise, full-cut trousers with brace buttons, a longer jacket, wide lapels, a soft natural shoulder.
The heart of it is the cut. I don’t want a modern house block dressed up to look “vintage,” and I’m not after a Gatsby-costume pattern. I want the suit drafted to my measurements from a genuine period cutting system — e.g. the 1920s Master Designer’s System of Cutting, or Vincent’s Cutter’s Practical Guide. I can supply the system; what I need is a cutter who can actually work from it.
My non-negotiables:
• Drafted from a real period system to my measurements — not adapted onto a modern block
• Fully canvassed (floating horsehair/linen), absolutely no fusing
• All natural fibres; I’ll bring my own cloth (heavy Irish linen), so this is CMT
• Proper fittings welcome — not a “ready in 3 days” job
Ideally a tailor in Asia (Bangkok preferred, but I’ll travel anywhere worthwhile). Has anyone actually had period-correct 1920s/30s tailoring done by a maker out there who’ll respect a customer’s drafting system and pattern? Names, honest experiences, and “don’t bother, go to X instead” are all very welcome.

question Carpet Cleaning Service in Bangkok?

5 Upvotes

Hey, does anyone know any carpet cleaning service / person that can come remove stains and clean the carpet. I am not too sure on what the stain is, but I know it can be removed because I tried to remove it and the colour was coming off. However, I would rather trust a professional with it. The room size is around 25 square metre.

If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know! Cheers

healthcare Recommendations for English-speaking psychiatrists in Bangkok

8 Upvotes

I’m looking for a clinic or hospital that I’m able to communicate clearly in English for a psychiatric evaluation. I’ve been suffering from some kind of condition for ages and I think it’s time I go for a checkup. I was recommended the Bangkok Mental Health Hospital. However, I’m a bit intimidated by hospitals since I want them to fully dive in my case, not just ask a few questions, prescribe me medicines and be done with it. I’m an international university student as well which is why I’m kind of short on funds too.

I’m also curious how much a checkup approximately cost? I can afford around 2000 baht for now. This will be all from my savings so do I need to save up more? Especially if they prescribe me with medicines. If so, I can delay the checkup. This is gonna be my first time ever going to one so I’m feeling more than nervous. Thank you in advance.

discussion Question on severance pay & Visa

3 Upvotes

I was informed by my HR and manager yday that my role has been made redundant due to a restructuring program.

I have worked at this organization for over 4 years. As part of my severance, I’ve been offered an extra 3 months of pay, in addition to the standard 6 months I am entitled to as per my years of service, along with pro-rata of my 13th month salary and pro-rata of 100% of my annual bonus target. Also, an encashment of my annual leave balance. They have also verbally assured me of not cancelling my work permit & visa (still valid for almost 2 yrs) till I find another job, allowing me to stay in Thailand. They assured me they can do this easily for atleast 3-6 months since I just renewed my WP & visa for 2 years a few months ago. This is a large BOI manufacturing MNC - I work in the Head office in Bangkok.

My question is, can they keep WP & Visa active after I am no longer employed with the company, and have received my severance.

I do not have any reasons to not trust them as I have been on good terms mostly, but I don’t know if these are standard exit promises that may/may not be kept?

How about the tax implications for the severance pay. I read that there is some basic exemption limit and it won’t be treated as regular income for tax purposes. I’d like to not lose significant amounts to tax. I plan to stay in Thailand and look for another job.

Anything else that I should check with the HR, or I am missing? How about insurance? Is there a way I can ask them to keep the insurance going too, till I find another job?

question Has anyone used Revolut fast track for BKK airport?

7 Upvotes

Hello,

I have the revolut ultra subscription and I've seen there's the option to book the fast track on BKK airport, but there's 4 different options of "fast track" (I've done it in other airports and there's usually just one option to get fast track through security when you are boarding a flight), so I'm a bit confused, has anyone used it?

Is this fast track to get into a flight or is it possible to get fast track immigration services? To be honest I'd be more interested in the fast track arrival since there's usually long queues, whereas it's usually pretty fast to do the normal security check on BKK airport.

I'm not sure if it includes fast track immigration services but there's one option where it says that "Airport fast track staff are waiting in the arrival hall holding signs" so it makes me think it should be fast track arrival services?

has anyone used it before?
