1. Saturday 27 Aug, which flight works best for you?
SQ65 BKK-13:30 SIN-16:55
or
SQ63 BKK-11:15 SIN-14:40
2. Of course if you can have the Monday off, that will great. Mr. Paffendorf posted previously may be SQ62 SIN-11:00 BKK-12:25
3. I notice that you are LH M&M member. Have you thought about this promo:
Starting July 20, 2005, youll be able to earn miles, status miles and HON Circle miles on all SWISS-operated flights, as well as redeem your miles for flight awards with SWISS. And to make sure travel will be comfortable, you can relax in the SWISS Business Class Lounges.
To celebrate this new cooperation, Miles & More has an exclusive welcome offer for you. Youll earn an extra 1,000 miles in Economy Class or 2,000 miles in Business Class for your first European cross-border flight with SWISS. Your first flight with SWISS outside Europe will earn you an extra 2,500 miles in Economy Class, 5,000 miles in Business Class or 10,000 miles in First Class.*
This promotion is valid from July 20 through September 15, 2005, and
requires registration.

I think the DOers on Sunday would not mind to have an earlier dinner and you still can catch your flight back to BKK.
What do you think?

For the 27th my preferance would be SQ63 flight but either is fine my me. If I get the Monday off then SQ62 sounds good, otherwise I will try the LX option on Sunday.
If you want to go ahead and book your flights just let me know which ones you opt for.

Aug 27 and 28
OK, all, just want to confirm attendance at the Sin min Do on the 27th and 28th. For the 27th:
cawhite
CGK
sailaway75
Jubilee777
jpb
paffendorf
jjpb3
MovieMan
Anyone else??
So far, plans are to meet for drinks (CGK has suggested Bar None at the Marriott hotel), then do a "hawker food run" (suggestions for where to go are highly appreciated!), then finish with drinks, maybe at the New Asia Bar at Stamford Swissotel (especially if we can convince sailaway75 to get us into the VIP area! ).
For Sunday the 28th, we're planning on meeting for dinner at Indochine Waterfront Restaurant (probably around 7, to enjoy the sunset). On the list so far:
CGK
paffendorf
JPB
MovieMan
Anyone else who wants to join is more than welcome! Just post in this thread so we know how many to make the reservation for.
Cheers!
