Taking MRT with big luggages - my experience

From the postings, it can be derived that Joetys,
1. Got chauffeur in BKK, so never take train
2. Buy air ticket to SGP so that he has a chance to experience taking the MRT
Maciam like ancient time, the emperor boring of the life in the palace, so sneaked out to play dressed as peasant :p
1. Yes you are right
2. No you are wrong I come back shopping and dining then will be gone a couple if days.
Dhey I said before don't hai me mention royalty knn 15 years in Bangkok Hilton you know?
I have done it. its a little bit of a pain, have to change trains, and cannot sit the whole time because u need to hold and jagar the luggage. easier if 2 people take the MRT together from the airport.
Never take mrt with luggage to or fro changi airport. I take public bus.
U Singaporean dun know local mentality meh. SG everyone is too used to taking cab when traveling to airport. We're too well off so see pple taking luggage on MRT no up. Can afford thousand dollar vacation cannot afford $30 cab ride
Personally I've never taken the train from the airport coz biz travel company pay, personal travel only 3-4 time a year I rather pamper myself. But overseas I will always take local transport wherever possible to save cost. Its ok in regional countries but once U go to places like Japan or Europe the cab fares are insane. Cab ride from CDG to Paris city center can cost U close to SGD$100. That's why ang moh culture is take public transport to/from airport and its not weird for them. Singaporeans complain about taxi fares but compared to most places I've been to, its still fairly cheap so we just take it for granted and assume everyone should take cab

Pls loh those joker talk like breakdown of this magnitude is everyday occurrence. Frequency and breakdown rate have improved a lot since Saw got kicked out
Pls your Mother Lau Chee Bye! :oIo: Making comparison to Saw's era? How about comparing it to 20 years ago? :oIo::kma:

Nothing la, some times I'm just crazy that's it.
We are not all millionaires.
If one can save a dollar here, & a dollar there. It can all add up to $$$.
For me it means I have more $ I can spend in LOS, Malaysia,...
Express line is at 30mins interval, and stop for suk area is Makassan. Only problem is you need a damn hike down to main road (or switch to MRT). Lately improved with buggy service (only to main road).
City line though stops lots, only costs bht47 to Phya Thai with easier connect to BTS. Last time taxi took bloody 2hrs to Bangkae (across Thonburi side) in rush hour, like bht500 + toll.

i am talking about him. not anyone else. Good that you save money.
Last time I visited LOS I took the taxi. The taxi driver gave me 2 options pay by meter or pay a package price of 500bht(which includes toll). Glad I chose the package price because there was a jam
Next visit I'll probably take the train because the political problems is still unresolved & i want to avoid potential jams.
Frequency and breakdown rate have improved a lot since saw kicked out? You forgot your medication today?
That's why I prefer to take an early flight got better chance of avoiding the jams in BKK. Next visit I will take the train, the hotel I usually stay is near to the MRT station at Sukh.
U either dont take MRT or complain for the sake of complaining. Best example I can give U is tanjong Pagar evening peak. Waiting 2 trains used to be common for me, nowadays I can get onto the first train 90% of the time. Wait time also decrease as well as noticable decrease in those stop start occurrence during rides
Just to prove my point, when was the last time U've seen one of those new photos of ridiculous packed MRT station. It doesnt happen now except for breakdowns and last year U can count the major ones in 1 hand. MRT have apps now informing U of breakdown
U seriously need to stop believing in stupid bullshit on the internet
