With his luggage on the trolley, this "kampung guy" went upstairs to check in for his next flight with TG.

He here some view of the chaotic departure level of BKK...



He turned back 180 degrees, heading to the end of the hall.




Hey... what that Camry was doing there? Was it some kind of price in here?





He's keep on walking to the last row...

Ahhhh.... here you were... the Royal First check in area's entrance....




But, this time he was not walking to the left hand side of the gazebo, but to the right hand side of that beautiful gazebo...
To the Royal Silk check in area...










Check in was a breeze, quick and efficient...
And for the first time, beside the boarding pass, he also got a lounge invitation... (here in BKK....... usually we don't need this invitation to access the lounge, just show the dragon lounge our J BP... just like SQ's at SIN...)

[Dent@SUB]

After a quick check at the dedicated immigration and security check line, this "kampung guy" soon was already at airside...
That's the special line for TG F and J pax... (the different was the F pax got a nice escort lady to escort you through that all, and the J pax got no one... )
Here’s that special line taken after this “kampung guy” passed them…


And right after that, an escalator that bring you directly to the front door of the concourse D Royal Silk Lounge, the largest among other Royal Silk Lounges at BKK.











This "kampung guy" gave the dragon lounge his invitation and also his BP...
She welcomed him with a big smile, and happily let him in...


This lounge literally was a looooooong hall, divided into several sections.

Each section has it's own dining area....

[Dent@SUB]

And here are some pre-flight "munchies" that he had at that lounge...









He still had plenty of time before the scheduled flight, so he went to the Royal Orchid Spa across the hall to have a massage...
As J pax, he was entitled either neck and shoulder or foot massage...




After filled out the form at the receptionist, he was escorted by a nice lady the the treatment room...
Ok.. it was not a room, but only a cubicle... but it was a nice cubicle...
(this time no more jacuzzi, or nice full body massage and spa... No F, no spa... just a little 30 minutes massage... )






The massage was very soothing... the therapist lady really knew how to relieve the stiff shoulder...

[Dent@SUB]

Feel relaxed after the massage, this "kampung guy" relaxed in the relax room... having a cup of herbal tea and some snack... (hey... he never had this at his kampung... usually after done with the massage, he went straight away home, never had a luxury like this... )














Felt relaxed, now he wanted to take shower before the long flight to Sydney...
But unfortunately, the main Royal Silk Lounge at concourse D across the hall doesn't have any single shower room.
Only the smaller Royal Silk Lounges at concourse C and E that have shower rooms.

[Dent@SUB]

So, he went to the nearest one at concourse C...
This time, he just show his J BP, and the lounge dragon let him in with a big smile...

And here is the shower room... a nice one...












Ahhhh.... they're still using Thann Product there.... nice... nice... nice...





Taking shower with that lemongrass infused shower gel was very soothing... so relaxing...

[Dent@SUB]

Still couple of hours to go before the flight...
So this "kampung guy" decided to take a nap first...

This "remote" Royal Silk Lounge surprisingly has napping rooms (and the main lounge got none... both shower room nor napping room.... strange arrangement... )









When he was inside the napping room, he heard something...
Something like a cat was purring... Sometime it's getting louder, but sometime it completely disappeared...
He was very curious about this sound...
He looked every where to find out the source of this sound...
And finally he found it out...
It was his neighbor's snoring.... Snoring so loud that can be heard from the next room...

Couldn't napping with that "music", he went outside to the sitting area...






And taking another "munchies"...

[Dent@SUB]

Now it's almost the boarding time...
So he went to the gate...
There's already some people at the gate's lounge...
Love those pink seats...













The priority seats in Thailand a little bit different from other countries...
In here they've included monk for the priority people... a dedicated service for their believe.






This "kampung guy" waited not more than 5 minutes before the boarding announcement was announced....
Holding J BP, he was among the first pax to board the aircraft...

So... ladies and gentlemen... this is a boarding announcement.
We'd like to invite passengers with infants and young children to board first, following by our First and Business class passengers and gold card member.
Economy class passengers please remain seated until further notice....

[Dent@SUB]

OK... lets boarding...

This time this "kampung guy" has not been TG-ed by TG...
They're still using A346 as scheduled...

F and J pax were using door 1...
So, before reached the J cabin, this "kampung guy" must pass the F section...






And this was his seat for another 10 hours...






The amenity kits and a blanket have been place on each seat...
Hmmmm.... a new version of amenity kits this time...
From Aigner this time...








Cabin's views during the boarding process... it's gonna be a full load on J class, and also the F class.... dunno about the whY class behind...







Hmmm... the flight information has not been programmed yet...

[Dent@SUB]

During the boarding process, a nice FA came with a tray of welcome drink...
Feel happy that night, this "kampung guy" took a glass of champagne for his welcome drink...




Waiting for the boarding process completed, he took some pictures of the content of "Doraemon's pocket" in front of him...

First thing... safety card...









And then came the menu book...
As usually, TG's menu book was very simple... more just like a booklet than a book...

[Dent@SUB]

Now the boarding process has been completed, it's time for safety demo video...
(look at the pax at F section... he traveled with his family with a toddler... and this kid was very often crying on the whole flight... must be a nightmare for other pax in F... and also for "kampung guy" who was sitting right behind them... )




Now it's time for push back....









The push back car...

[Dent@SUB]

Now they're ready for taxiing...
Bye bye terminal building...

[Dent@SUB]

Now they're on position now...
Yaaaak... get set.... Spoiler down...engines ready... full thrust... release brakes....
Roaaaaaaaarrrrrr...... Those four massive engines roaring with full thrust... pushing this "flying pencil" forward.... faster and faster... running along the runway.... riding the wind...




Until at one point.....
Yaakkkkk..... lifted offfffff......







Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the sky... please enjoy your stay here...
Dinner will be served soon....

Hey... what that Camry was doing there? Was it some kind of price in here?
