Hi Guys .......So I have got around to booking my next jaunt to LOS , but I feel I must comment on the confusion surrounding buying a ticket from a online travel agent .
I looked on wednesday at expedias site for a flight dated the 11/03/09 and returning on the 28/03/09 .......the cheapest was Etihad at £ 579 and then Emirates at £ 604 . I checked on thursday and KLM are now the cheapest at £ 489 with Etihad and Emirates quoted exactly the same . I booked this at £ 489 , checked back the next day .......... KLM are now £ 732 , again I checked the next day its now £ 623 ( KLM ) . I have just checked again and the price has gone out to £ 905 ...................... Yes I am happy at my great price from Amsterdam , but why does the tickets fluctuate so wildly , one minute its a steal and then next minute its daylight robbery !!!! .
I have been told by a friend that airlines release tickets in batches to agents ......which explains why the price goes up and down so much ......I am just glad that I got mine when I did as I now have 1.20 hours to Amsterdam and 10.30 to Bkk ........sweet eh  .
Jim , I am somewhat confused about the situation regarding putting images on the AJ site . I have done this before , but I loaded it up direct from my own p.c , now from what you are saying ( with Mike ) you have to load the images onto the web to a 3 rd parties site to upload onto AJ `s site .......has something changed as I did not do this before .
The reason why I ask is that I have some photos of Bow , but they are really only for your own private consumption as you are so close to her  . I don`t want all the other guys to see her love for you as they may get jealous etc etc and if this relationship leads to wedding bells etc I would like to be there . She did pose for me but her body language suggests its you who she really wants to see them as you are nigh on " man and wife " after your whirlwind romance with her in October  . I have never mentioned this before Jim but she was talking about you all the time to me and I think you may have found your other half ......... really .
regards yogi
p.s I have a nice pic of peter strutting his stuff .....john travolta watch out .

Yogi... It looks like after the crisis in LOS, the confusion goes wild, not with the ticket prices only... and it doesn´t really matters if you do your booking online or by visiting a travel agency.
Especially Thai Airways and it´s fellow airlines of "Star Alliance" seem to be unable to give us a proper timetable.
Read my topic and the comments here:
http://ukbkk.co.uk/forum/index.ph...27569&start=0&#entry27569
About uploading pictures... Well, as far as I understand, is Jim´s method for using pics as signatures only.
Don´t know why you can´t upload into a topic anymore.
Two days ago, it worked fine when I uploaded my collage of the skydiver into my post "How to reach Anna Jet when all the airports are closed".
But I realised that I had to reduce the size of the JPG attachment first.
Try again... and make sure that your pics are JPG files !
All the best,

Hi Blagger ......firstly welcome to the forum ( again ) .... yeah, its kinda confusing booking airline tickets but it looks like you have sussed out a way of getting yourself into Emirates lounges ....... but keep this quiet as you don`t want King Butterfly ( Jimmy mac ) joining you in there as he will lower the tone . Four times a year ....can `t be bad mate ........ I do hope that you are only going for the culture ( like me and Mike ) .
regards yogi
p.s are you going to LOS in March ??? .

Hi yogi, there are a number of ways to do this photo thing... if its just a few pics of bow you want to upload you can do it with the attach photo/file option in the posting screen below the text box, enduring the bb code is on and HTML is off. Or like i said use www.webshots.com and upload all your images onto there, when you have done this as you view the pics in the bottom right hand corner of the screen there will be image codes you can use to link the pics direct to annajets website or paste them into your signiture box on the forum and you can adjust the pic sizes there and then. Nice comments about bow yogi, some people would think you are trying to get a rise out of me Never im affraid i am a king butterfly and wont be changing for the next 5 years as im 21 in febuarary and the fun starts then, regardless the fact i have been coming to thailand for the last 3 years haha.....And for the comment about the lounges in dubai im already ahead of you guys as i only fly with emirates i am a member of their skywards sceme and i now am a silver member and get access to the lounges in dubai for free plus the option of upgrades on my next trip to buisness class due to the ammount of airmiles i now have collected  .... not to mention the extra 13Kg baggage allowence for my flip flops and condoms 
P.s you could email the pics to www.jimstiff21@live.co.uk so that i could just look through them to see if they are suitable forum material hahaha........ whateva ya want m8 its up 2 you.
cheers jimmy mac
