One night at the Marriott Royal Garden. Speak, get classic thai massage (to undwind), then

One day and 2 nights at beach
13 APR THAI430 PEN-BKK 8:40-9:20
(These flights are "1st class" rate on an airplane with only business and coach sections, but the rate gives 150% UAMP points as opposed to 125% for business class, and 100% of miles toward elite vs. 50% in coach. The tix are also fully refundable, so if I can get a better deal at BKK, I'll take it and the refund)

Matt: there are 2 Marriotts: the JW (direct new motorway access to/from airport) and the resort-like Royal Garden.

There, fixed it.

OMNI: mattwald, your company shouldn't make you do double connexions! don't they have a policy against that?

hhui: I WISH. I could take an ORD-SAN but it would mean a 4 hour layover at ORD. I don't mind the extra segment, but I DO mind losing my double mile bonus...

Hey MattWald:

BKK - The Marriott Royal Garden is very far and inconvenient from town. Stay there ONLY if you have business nearby. If you have to split your time between that and the Hilton, give yourself at least 45 minutes travelling time (anytime of the day or 60 minutes travelling time in rush hour traffic - and it's a distance of less than 4 miles)

Okay here are my April flights:
+ denotes an award ticket

Looks like Stimpy has some competition for whose in the air the most! Definitely would not want to be flying economy with your schedules.
