Also will the currency exchange be available at that time of night and how long will that take on average? My concern is that by the time we leave the airport for Patong it will be too late to pick up girls!  We are considering exchanging some cash before we arrive to at least skip having to go to the exchange that night. Some advice would be appreciated. Thank you. |
As everyone is telling you, customs should be a breeze during that time. What I usually do is change about $50.00 at the airport counters upon arrival. That money will be used for cabfare, tips and a nice seafood dinner. Afterward I hit the ATM and withdraw my daily limit. As for the ladies, don't worry be happy :-)
