Tucking into my fresh sushi purchased from Bangkok airport I had no idea of the grief it was soon to impart on my body. Food poisoning is never pretty but when you find yourself hogging the toilet at 39,000-ft on a 12-hour flight it’s really unpleasant! But everything in life is an experience and this taught me much about flying.
Thailand’s political situation has been worsening – last year pro-government protesters (yellow shirts) blockaded Bangkok’s airport, halting flights for days. Now it’s anti-government protesters (red shirts) that are shouting loudest and the ensuing civil unrest has resulted in a number of countries, the UK included, warning against all non-essential travel to Thailand.
