would be nice to use one ticket/card for both

Sydney thought of this, even the buses there use the same pass cards as the skytrain/subway & you can buy them for certain areas of the city to save vs. buying a city-wide pass

Apparently the stretch of the BTS from the airport to On Nut is due to open in August.

Apparently it was due to open on 12 August. Not because that's when it will be finished but because it's the Queen's birthday. Why she can't just get a pair of slippers like any other granny beats me.

As of last week, they were still pissing about with the power supply and looked as if they were several months away from operational testing. If they do, somehow, start running trains on 12 Aug, I'd avoid using it for at least six months.
