One of the favorite hot spots well-received by Malaysians will be undeniably Bangkok, Thailand. The metropolis city is the capital of Thailand, not only a melting pot for culture but famed for its vibrant, extravagant shopping malls. Street foods are ubiquitous but for those with a deeper pocket, you may always splurge a little to pamper yourself. Affordable luxurious goods, facial treatments, spa, posh restaurants can all be easily found across Bangkok.

Bangkok is easily accessible, even for Penangites. Air Asia offers direct flight from Penang International Airport to Don Mueang International Airport. We hassle-freely checked in our luggage and waited for our flight. The flight to Bangkok was smooth and took us around 1 hour and 40 minutes.
Uncle Chin's Chicken Rice
Singapore Fried Noodles with Thai Dessert and Coke
"Thai Banana" (140 Baht)
Air Asia Luggage-Casing Name Card Holder (250 Baht)
While Air Asia does not provide any in-flight entertainment for being a low-cost carrier, it does have some interesting products/ food that one should not miss. If you find yourself hungry or in the need for a quick meal, always grab a set of their Chicken Rice and Singapore Fried Bee Hoon; both were served to us piping hot. They may not be mind-blowingly good, they were definitely comforting enough.
If you are worried about your luggage weight, you may also shop on board! We found an uncommon snack- Thai Banana, a Tokyo-Banana inspired snack, uniquely created in Thailand. We thought it was a lovely snack to buy as gift, especially with its elegant and appropriate box. On top of that, we have also found a unique Name Card Holder, well-shaped in a luggage form. It feels flimsy but creatively designed.
There are aplenty of Air Asia check-in counters available. The service was brisk, it took us less than a couple of minutes to complete the process.
While we could foresee ourselves loaded with shopping bags, we did not expect Don Mueang International Airport can be that shopper-friendly. Many international brands such as Lacoste, Starbucks and other Duty-Free goods can also be found there.
