new hotel tpe

I see the new hotel in tpe is 31 kms from airport takes 20min. Need to average over 90kmph to do it including intersections, corners and traffic in a bus now that is gona be better than a roller coaster.

Ah yes... With the lesser allowances you won't even afford that second drink to calm your nerves after the bus ride.

I like the fact that it has plenty of fine restaurants to choose from... As long as you want to eat tripe, fish heads and pig intestines!!!

The new hotel is 5 min up the road from the landmark. Another fine hotel to waste another day of your life in. I wonder if this time they will remove the free condoms from the bedside table before we move in.

The standard and location of hotels that Don't Know How chooses for us is a disgrace. As is the fact that this clerk chooses the hotels with NO input from any pilot rep. And i guess so is the fact we sit here and keep taking the pineapples as they come.

Well, you know what to do if you are unlucky enough to get a TPE layover.
The same as the cabin crew do!
It's the only thing that will change this sort of penny- pinching from Don't Know How and the Ethnic Cleanser.
When it starts to affect their hip pocket it will change.
