Thailand, Japan, airlines, restaurants, prostitutes, taxis etc.........everyone should triple or quadruple their prices to keep the plebs, the poorgays, the commoners and the wagies away from the elite travelers, NEETs and (perhaps) digital nomads. Why should we have to be around you and smell you.... or even see you....unless you are serving us right now?
Ur right the golden age of travel was also before 1990s when airline tickets were 4 months of your salary.
Now every inch of the world is filled with poor gays which makes other poor gays on here seeth
Why would I pay European prices in a shithole like Thailand when I could just travel to a higher quality place like Europe instead and pay the same? To sell something at a high price, it actually has to have quality attached to it, something Thailand and other countries in Southeast Asia do not have. The literal only reason these countries are popular are because they are cheap. Thats it. Nothing else.
Plane tickets were expensive but the destination itself was dirt cheap, so you would still save a lot of money.
Yes, there is nothing else in Thailand. Nothing at all.
Nothing that justifies paying equivalent to European prices. For every neat or nice thing in Thailand I could show you 100 things right in the immediate area that are run down, decrepit, outdated or inefficient.
You know prostitution is also legal in much of the EU right? If the prices are the same, then what’s the difference?
>would still save a lot of money.
Paying for the equivlant of 8K for an international ticket today back then even if you stayed at a cheap hotel is still more expensive than today dumbass
Also back then there were barely any motels or hostels it was.literally the ritz or go camping
>there were barely any motels in the 1970s
Why are millennials so stupid and yet present as know everything
youre moronic. ive met way too many boomers who go on and on about the glory days of places like Thailand in the 80's and 90's to know youre 100% full of shit.
not trolling, but why don't you just travel somewhere more expensive? and even if you're in a cheap country, you can stay at a resort and only go to nice restaurants and not have to see a single backpacker.
You still have to see them in the airport and on the plane. Horrible creatures.
Thailand without seedy people, boomer coomers and backpackers would be such a boring, sleepy, lame shithole. The variety of weird people and characters you see and meet in Thailand are just as much a part of the culture and vibe there as the Thai people themselves. Seriously if you want an overpriced, more expensive, lower quality, super poor, boring shithole with few Westerners and only Chinese tourists just frick off to Cambodia and see how much of a quality Southeast Asian experience youll get for the value of paying higher prices in a third world Southeast Asian country. Something tells me youll come crawling back to Thailand within a week, but please do everyone a favor and stay the frick there and never leave.
take a luxury airline? I just took Asiana from Seoul to Saigon and 0 non Korean tourists and I wouldn't even consider Asiana to be luxury
and go chill in the lounge at whatever airport you're in. you might see me and seethe like every other fat boomer does, but people like me become much less common in lounges outside of the US
Nah, Thailand has always been cheaper, even during its golden age.
It’s definitely internet and lower plane ticket prices that make normies fly a lot more than they should.
Honestly, ever since I started renting cars or go to remote places, mass tourism is less of an issue. Just go to places not hyped by social media, and things become much better.
yes it's not bad at all. just stay like 2km from the touristy part of the city and see 0 tourists. I don't understand all the seethe here. Are rich, fat boomers really that much nicer to be around? some fat Australian dickhead was standing right in front of the buffet with his arms crossed waiting for his Pho, 0 regard for others.
Boomers are much better to be around than whining millennials who cry about racism, mmysogy and want to get butt fricked by trannies
boomers are the ones who voted for that shit for 50+ years and taught their kids that shit you braindead frick
Wrong, millennials are the ones pushing homosex and open borders it's their fault that boomers have to flee to Mexico to be safe
shhh don't tell people this.
When I went with my local friend I met abroad she took me to her place to stay and took me around the city and I didn't see any tourists. There was even some event going on and shit nearby and no tourists. Was fun.
When I stayed by myself near the regular places you read online it was endless fat bald ugly disgusting boomers, and incel losers walking around everywhere and post wall roastie yoga white girls.
That guy gets it.
Most tourists are too poor or dumb to rent a car and drive on unfamiliar roads. You can easily escape the crowd and get to the best places by car. Obviously, you'll certainly get a much much better experience too.
Interestingly enough, I met several Germans that were rich enough to rent cars, but were anxious about it: "what if I have an accident? What if the car breaks? What if, what if?"
>self-proclaimed upper echelon deigns to post on SighSee
Yet another homosexual full of shit, making a shit thread.
If you want to be ripped off and bored in Southeast Asia theres always Singapore for dumb, sterile idiots like yourself.
Shut up moronic homosexual
You will smell me and my beaner senpai as we travel the world and you will like it
>$1,000 round trip Houston to Paris
>$60/night hotel
>use metro card to get around
>eat cheap carbs
Yeah. I'm thinking Paris in October.
You hate people with less money than you, but you like to go to countries like Thailand, where people have even less? Start making sense, you dumb chink.
