    Great video, you're the only one who goes around the shops and gives a brief description.
    Thanks for that.

      It felt good to get away from communist Manchester into the freedom of Saudi Arabia and not be hassled for that!

    were going to bkk in June we've always taken a taxi from the airport 3 times we have been but we have decided to take the train this time as the taxis were getting a bit expensive 400baht last time we were there so hopefully it'll work out well for us

    • @pg.travels

      I did a video walking right through from the arrivals to the Airport rail link last year. It might be helpful.
      It's 45 Baht each if you go to where it connects to the BTS. It's a lot faster than getting a taxi. Definitely the best option if you don't have a lot of luggage.

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  Рік тому +2

      In Manchester, I was told not to film the whole way, especially in security (by-law prohibiting filming in the airport) but in Saudi, nothing was said anywhere. Even filming in security and with police around didn't attract any attention, it was quite surprising how friendly it all was Vs Manchester.

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  2 роки тому +2

      I was too sleepy to film the food but it was good! I can't remember exactly what it was but remember that it was good and there were plenty of snacks given out and extra drinks available any time too.
      Similar to Emirates, Qatar etc but minus the alcohol.

    Hi. I hold UK Travel document. If I transit Saudis do you think I am need transit visa?

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  Рік тому +1

      From what I read when I went, if the transit is under 9 hours, you don't need anything (I didn't need anything in this video or on my return).
      Search "transit Saudi Arabia foreign office" to get the latest and accurate info though. The UK foreign office website has up to date info on things like that.

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  2 роки тому +2

      I'm a UK citizen and there was no need for a transit visa. From reading online, I think that's the same for everyone as long as your time in between flights isn't too long.

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  Рік тому +1

      I'm a UK citizen and nothing was needed.
      I've read online that for longer transits (9+ hours) a transit visa is needed.
      It varies by countries but from what I read, most countries don't need anything in most circumstances.

    How was the plane ? I've read some bad reviews about them, but their prices are cheapest at £600

    • @pg.travels
      @pg.travels  2 роки тому +6

      I read the same but from my experience, I'd say that they were excellent all round. If you don''t ask for alcohol, you wouldn't notice any difference between Saudia and Emirates, Qatar etc.
      Given the choice between those carriers in future, even at the same price, I'd go with Saudia because of the better baggage allowance.
      Give them a try and comment back with how you find them!

      Their a330s r pretty bad tbh. Especially the ones whose tail registrations end with alphabets but don't worry, those a330s usually travel only domestic or towards Indian subcontinent and few African routes. Tbh, having flown on those a330s and having no interest in watching IFE, I'd say saudia does a pretty decent job even on those planes

      I'll be like you take the Saudi Arabia airline from London Heathrow to Bangkok, this is my very 1st time to take Saudi Arabia airline,
      Would like to ask you, Saudi Arabia airline economy ticket, how much baggage is free for check-in? I saw you got 2 pieces of baggage in check-in items?
      Also..... 3 hours waiting for the next transit, all baggage check through? Do we need to apply for any landing Visa for that 3 hours transit?
      How much did you pay for that London Heathrow to Bangkok flight ticket? Many Thanks 🙏
