    We just got back from our trip to BKK and it was awesome (despite the typhoons). We got economy comfort to NRT, and BE to BKK. Once we were in Bangkok we went to the MBK mall, took a cooking class, rode a tuk-tuk, and bartered alot.
    Unfortunately because of the typhoons in Japan our flight to NRT was payload optimized to carry more fuel. Since that is the only DL flight out of BKK, nonrev panic set in for all 20+ of us. Instead of trying to head back to NRT we were able to ZED our way on AF to CDG, and luckily the flight was completely open so the wife and I choose our own rows in the back of the 777 and chilled for the next 8 hours. Once we got to CDG we booked a room at Only Suites CDG and called it a night. We got up first thing in the AM checked out the hotel and headed to the city. We took some pictures under the Eiffel Tower, had a few pastries, bought some souvenirs then back to the airport for our flight in BE to JFK. From start to finish we flew ATL-LAX-NRT-BKK-CDG-JFK/LGA-TYS, then a 4hr drive home. 7 days 3 countries 20k+ miles= 1 long trip literally around the world.
