The best airport smoking area is at Changi. On a roof terrace overlooking the runway. With a bar :cloud9:

Mind you, when you're flying out at 1am, any airport is a ****hole :-(

Now that's a ****hole.

The old Bangkok airport at Dong Muang was always a proper introduction to the East, with its massive banner covering one wall advising, 'The Penalty For Drugs Is Death' and two hour queues at immigration to be grunted at by a sunglass-wearing gun-toting boy soldier who might, or might not, decide to slip a baggie of Horse into your hand luggage.
Suvarnabumi is all crisp and shiny and efficient :-(

No, I think the Singapore thing is more to do with 50 years of fascist dictatorship, really.

I like the fact that lengthy documentaries about the life of Lee Kuan Yew are available on the Singapore Airlines In-Flight Entertainment system. :hehe: Who on earth would watch that?

It's a great sadness to me that it's impossible to find Singapore Chilli Crab anywhere in this country. :-(

Roti Canai and Singapore chilli crab both available...

Is eating foreign muck not a bit of a risk in your condition, though?
