Lee Hayhurst discovers that Thailand still delights with three kids in tow
THAI TOTS V
Lee with his family Seth, Millie, Rebecca and Zac
isiting Thailand as a backpacker, I set out armed with little more than a pair of flip-flops, a fistful of baht and a Lonely Planet guidebook. Planning a return visit with three kids in tow, I suspected
that excess baggage might be only the start of our worries. My concerns were needless. Not only was it possible to pack enough for five people and remain within the 20kg per adult low-cost carrier limit, we found Thailand a destination that is hugely welcoming to children.
Long flights with children can seem daunting, but Thai
Airways’ on-board entertainment meant the 11 hours passed relatively quickly.
l KRABI: FINDING NEMO Just a two-hour flight from Bangkok, Krabi’s limestone islands jutting dramatically from the sea have made it Thailand’s most iconic landscape.
