T.V. Airbookings: My favourite Thai travel agent
In Thailand, finding a good travel agent is not easy. Shoddy offices, poor spoken English and unprofessional service are the norm. When you go back to collect the tickets, you have to pray that the shop is still there.
Last week, however, I visited The Emporium and discovered T.V. Airbookings on the 3rd floor. There, the English-speaking staff delivered a first-rate travel service. In case you are wondering, this is not an advert. The service really was exceptional.
With a fully computerised booking system, they suggested to me a range of options and prices. They even held a booking open while they put me on the waiting list for a cheaper flight. It didn't cost a penny. When I finally bought my ticket, they printed it out at once.
T.V. Airbookings also has a website at www.tv-air.com. It's poorly designed and you can't book online but at least you can find out the cost of locally purchased air tickets.
