Bought Air Tickets for Wife and Baby

Last Sunday bought the air tickets at AirAsia website for a total of S$429.10, didn't buy for myself because wife wanted to go for a month, I cannot go for so long, don't have the leave anyway since I rejoined the company in Jul, by the time I get my leave after 3 months it will be pro-rated, at most I will have 5-6 days I guess. By the way first 3 months I cannot take any leave.

I think there's a 1% surcharge for buying the tickets, I paid by credit card and checked my statement today, the final amount is S$433.39, weird thing it's not reflected in the invoice, I also don't remember seeing any note about a surcharge, no idea what the 1% is for but then it's not a big deal.

Wife and baby will fly to Don Mueang via Thai Lion Air, wait about 3 hours 35 minutes then fly to Udon Thani via Thai AirAsia, in case you are wondering, it's all in one single booking via AirAsia all for S$433.39, these days so convenient.

The check-in luggage price also increase, I don't remember 15 KG have to pay S$58.58, some more cannot choose, only one choice which is 15 KG, sigh but these days everything prices also increase, knn. Well at least wife and baby have 7 KG each for carry-on.

I think I will probably go when they come back, maybe meet them at Bangkok and take 3-4 days holiday.

So glad to be able to travel again. Stay safe all.

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ . The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation fo
