A Few Things To Note About Flying In and Out of Thailand
If you live in North America, finding a cheap destination is a big priority this year. Thailand represents a killer deal and it is very friendly towards Americans. If you are going for the first time, however, there is something you need to know about the flight.
To be honest, there are a couple of things you need to know about flying to Thailand. The first thing to grasp is the flight is long. I’m talking watch the grass grow long. I’ve flown internationally much of my life and the flight to Thailand feels like it is one of the longest. Depending on where you are coming from, it will clock in at 22 to 28 hours.
The second thing to know is that you really need to pay attention to the difference in time between your location and Thailand. From the west coast of the United States, the difference is such that you often fly into Bangkok at about one o’clock. One as in the time the bars are closing! It is pretty much just you and your fellow travelers in the airport.
Before you mark Thailand off of your list of destinations, it is important to keep in mind that pretty much everything is open at this late hour. They Thais know the flights are coming in late and cater to them. You can get taxis, hotel rooms, change money and so on. It is not a situation where you walk out of the airport and a tumbleweed rolls down the road.
The third key thing to know has to do with your flight out of the country. You really need to call in and check for updates on the flight out a few days to a week ahead of time. Why? The flights change all the time. They usually leave on the same day, but may do so as many as six hours earlier than it reads on your ticket.
This leads to some fairly amusing situations. The Thais are mortally offended if you miss your flight. If there is any chance of getting on it or a flight to the same destination, they will drag you all over the airport to get there. I’ve often ended up on a different airline asking where the heck I am going. Despite the chaos, it always seems to work out.

A Caribbean Honeymoon To Petit St Vincent
Don't book a Caribbean Honeymoon without checking out Petit St Vincent in The Grenadines
A Caribbean Honeymoon to Petit St Vincent is well worth taking the trouble to research.
Petit St Vincent is a five star Caribbean resort which has 22 rooms, and is described in its own brochure as an exotic Cottage Resort on its own 113 acre island which is completely surrounded by two miles of white sand beaches and it places great emphasis on privacy. It is 40 miles south of St Vincent in the Grenadines.
Petit St Vincent is well away from the tourist mainstream
This all sounds perfect for a Caribbean Honeymoon Vacation, and certainly needs checking out.
The first thing to note is that petit St Vincent has no television, pool, or telephone, no airport, not even a formal check in, so what you are going to get is fabulous seclusion well away from the hustle and bustle of Caribbean life, and that above all should make it perfect for that Caribbean Honeymoon.
This is very much a lay back and relax sort of place, and the level of privacy works well.
Petit St Vincent has one almost unique feature which are the flags. If for example you want room service breakfast, you hoist a yellow flag, and you will get an extremely quick response by golf cart, or alternatively if you don't wish your early morning Caribbean honeymoon to be disturbed you raise a red flag that says Do Not Disturb.
This being the case you are left in splendid peace in your great private luxurious stone cottage on the beach. In fact if you want to be a hermit during your time on petit St Vincent, you need never even see another guest thanks to the ability to order all your meals in your stone cottage. This would be a mistake because the resort has a beautiful bar and dining room
The cottages themselves are mostly just a few paces from the beach, both remote and secluded yet within easy and quick reach of the resort's services. The cottages are built from native blue bitch stone which is quarried on the island itself, and the hardwood ceilings are peaked. The cottages are quite open to the elements with large French windows that are almost the whole width of the bedroom, and when open look out over the large sundeck to the beautiful azure sea beyond. Each cottage in addition to the sundeck has a living room, one or two bathrooms, and dressing room. The bathrooms are particularly nice with a shower, robes, fluffy towels and top class toiletries. In addition there are day beds for children if required, but probably not on a Caribbean Honeymoon!!
Petit St Vincent is one of the Leading Small Hotels of the World and well deserved this distinction, and there are many activities on the island to enjoy and these include snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, water skiing, and fishing, and you will find Hobie Cats, and Sunfish in the dock house at no extra cost. On land, there is plenty island to hike over, and there is a lovely floodlit tennis court.
PSV is the ideal place for a secluded, private hideaway sort of Caribbean Honeymoon Vacation, where the sun shines, and even the most cynical guest will find peace and contentment

A Caribbean Island Resort On Canouan Island In Saint Vincent And The Grenadines
Mention a Caribbean Island Resort on Canouan in the Grenadines to anyone and they automatically think of Raffles, but the Tamarind Beach Resort and Yacht Club is very well worth checking out, and apart from the fact it is a lot less money, it is in fact a very good place to spend a Caribbean Island Vacation.
It has just forty rooms, so if you prefer small and beautiful to big and glitzy this could be right for you. Tamarind Beach sits on a long white sand beach surrounded by tropical gardens, and the location is absolutely stunning.
To get to this Caribbean Island resort is just a short hop by a small plane from St Lucia, and you will be met by someone from the Tamarind who will drive you the ten minutes it takes through the main village to the resort. You will quickly be aware of the mossies, so you will need your bug spray. Greeted at the Tamarind by a nice cooling drink, you will realise very quickly how friendly the staff are, and this compares very favourably with many other Caribbean Island Resorts.
The regular rooms are completely lined in lovely polished wood from the floor to the walls, to the decking that leads straight out onto the beach, as all rooms are beachfront. If you can afford it, and if you were even considering Raffles then you will be able to afford a Suite at Tamarind Beach Hotel. The suites are lovely, and they include a microwave and a coffee maker, a living room and a separate bedroom. The living room has a day bed and a coffee table, and a large balcony with chairs and loungers. Being up on the second floor there is more breeze, and there is no need to leave the air-conditioning on when you go out, just leave the shutters open. The screens will keep out the bugs, and you will only need air conditioning to sleep at night. There is a king size bed and a nice bathroom.
A Caribbean Island Vacation would not be complete without a great beach, and the beach at the Tamarind Beach Hotel and yacht Club is one of the nicest and best swimming beaches in the whole of the Caribbean. There are several beach loungers for the guests of the Tamarind, and a beach area valet to look after you. Non guests, mostly visiting people from the yachts which are moored offshore have to pay for the privilege, so the lovely white sand beach is hardly ever remotely busy, and the water warm and clean with no dangerous rocks to stub your toes on. There is comlimentary sunfish sailing, snorkeling, and windsurfing.
Food is another important consideration in any resort never mind a Caribbean Island resort, where lets face it the food can be quite mundane. Not so at the Tamarind Beach where the food is very good, whether you are eating a beach snack at the Pirates Cove Bar, or a meal at the Palapa Restaurant, an open air restaurant right at the waters edge.
Be clear, Canouan as a Caribbean Island vacation spot is not the kind of place for frenetic partying, and there is very little shopping. The Tamarind beach Hotel Resort and Yacht Club is a place for peace and quiet, and gentle unwinding.

It has just forty rooms, so if you prefer small and beautiful to big and glitzy this could be right for you. Tamarind Beach sits on a long white sand beach surrounded by tropical gardens, and the location is absolutely stunning.
To get to this Caribbean Island resort is just a short hop by a small plane from St Lucia, and you will be met by someone from the Tamarind who will drive you the ten minutes it takes through the main village to the resort. You will quickly be aware of the mossies, so you will need your bug spray.
