Forgive the cross post...I originally asked this question in my "home" forum (Air Canada) and since opinion there was mixed, I am now seeking a wider view. (The original thread is
here.)
My wife has one week off in October, from Monday the 18th until Monday the 25th, and I'd really like to take her on a "quickie" trip to Asia. My only experience travelling to Asia was my weekend MR to Hong Kong last September. I loved every minute that I was in Hong Kong, and I'd really like to go back with my wife and spend some more time exploring. However, I've also heard some very good things about Bangkok. At first I was considering trying to fit both cities in, but this isn't really feasible in a week, given the loss of almost two days on the outbound leg. So I've decided to either spend the entire time in either Hong Kong or Bangkok. Here are the pros and cons for each that I have come up with.
Hong Kong
Bangkok
Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.
