Book Cheap Flights To Thailand, Spend The Night In Prison…And Enjoy It!

If spending a night in prison seems like a tourist’s worst nightmare, think again. It’s all the latest craze in Thailand at the moment, which if you that haven’t already started scouring the web for cheap flights to Thailand yet, perhaps a little more on the concept will…

Spending a night in prison in Thailand is not an experience only for those who over-indulge in hooligan juice and end up participating in criminal or lewd behaviour. It’s actually an experience that tourists look for (the night in prison, not the booze and lewd behaviour that is!).

There’s certainly no airs and graces about Sittichai Chaivoraprug’s prison hostel, Sook Station. The 55 year old man has constructed his hostel just outside Bangkok and it’s been found ever-so-appealing to travelers visiting the country. 

What sets Sittichai’s hostel apart from the rest is that it’s designed to provide an authentic Thai prison experience. 9 dingy, dark rooms with bare cement walls and simple bunk beds as furniture await travelers from far and wide, including South Africa.

There’s no escaping your decision to overnight as a criminal once you’ve checked in. The room doors feature thick prison bars and thick metal doors with only peep-holes to the outside. You’d think you were really in prison, if it weren’t for the Wi-Fi access and air conditioning.

Flights to Thailand are so affordable, so there’s every reason to get excited about trying out a real experience of a night in a Thailand slammer.

Extra Perks to Staying in Thailand’s Prison Hostel - Sook Station’s Extras!

While a night in a prison cell might be enough for some, there are extra perks that make the stay a special and memorable one for travelers. On check-in, prison-styled striped pajamas are available for purchase and each guest can pose at a mug-shot wall for some memorable snap shots.

Book Cheap Flights to Thailand & Get The True Prison Experience - NO FRILLS!

If you’re planning to hop on a flight to Thailand and spend a night in a luxury prison-esque hotel, you’re going to be quite surprised. 

The hostel  has been styled to be a true reflection of what Thai prison is really like. There are no frills (besides the Wi-Fi and aircon of course) and for some that’s great, for others it’s horrific.

What to expect: Guests can expect tiny cells to show just how limited space is in detention facilities. Toilet facilities are a simple hole in the floor. It’s much like an average prison, minus the violence among inmates of course. Sittichai has said that he knew people would either love or hate is hostel, and he was right!

Book Cheap Thailand Flights With The Following Airlines

If Sook Station is on your must-see list along with a variety of other top attractions in Thailand, it’s time to start shopping around for cheap flights. Leading international airlines that offer flights between South Africa (Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town) and Thailand include: Air Namibia, Asky Airlines, Cathay Pacific Airways, Emirates, Ethiopian Airlines, Etihad Airways, Jet Airways, Kenya Airways, Kulula, Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines and South African Airways.

If you’re planning a trip to Thailand, don’t forget to book a night’s stay at Sook Station! It’s bound to be a prison experience you will never forget.

Tips For Parents Traveling With Kids To Australia

Let’s face it; traveling with small kids is a challenging task, and if you have just booked your flights to Australia, one of your number one fears is probably about how your child will behave on the plane!  While this is one of the many concerns parents traveling with kids are faced with, there are other things that you need to think about too. Over and above finding cheap flights to Australia , the customs laws in the country should also be on your mind.  To some, the laws seem trivial, but that doesn’t detract from the fact that the Aussies take them very seriously. That being said, it’s important to know what you can and can’t take into the country with you.  Traveling with a baby or small child often requires you to carry milk, formula, puree and snacks, but food products (of any kind) are generally not allowed into the country. This can make things a little bit tricky for the traveling parent. Tips For Parents Traveling With Kids To Australia If you are trav
