Dam Glad PD talked me out of flying to Phuket Today and waiting till tuesday or I would have been flying to Phuket on "One to Go" which from what the staff and PD say is a horrible airline.  The Breaking story is below

I bet many people reading this forum use these flights as a matter of routine. It's certainly put me off using them.

I hope it's not too trite to say that it was just a matter of time before something like this happened...

I will more than likely be trying Air Asia out next time from Chiang Mai to BKK ( 2500baht for 2 one-way tickets).

Getting to Chaing Mai will be ok as I'm flying with Thai Airways (biz class)

Have any BM's had any bad experiences with Air Asia?

[Snick]

AirAsia, Thai, Nok, Bangkok Air -- all are fine
1-2-Go is shite and I have said so many times before


You want an old pilot in a new plane, not a new pilot in an OLD plane !

This really Sucks ass. I hope all Forum readers are well and did not take that flight.

Its a Sad way to go. No control over your own destiny that is.

Then you had better get off the forum and get down for some afternoon delight.

[stogie bear]

Afternoon delight? In this city? Come on, mate... tell us where... (don't include the dogs and GGs...)

[geosight]

rest in peace all who lost their lives . I really feel for these guys and was so fucking angry to hear the news

But thing is for all of us that have been to phuket , knew that this was bound to happen . so much Turbulence mid flight and mixed with atrocious weather .

If only i could just fly Qantas all the time !

[Torurot]

You may remember Qantas parked a fairly new 747 into a drainage ditch at the end of the Old Bangkok runway a few years back. Considering the number of flights into and out of Phuket airport it has a very good safety record.
