I'm a big believer in maximizing your time in MLE.
Though frankly, I think you should change things slightly, and work out to spend the time in CNX instead of BKK (even if it means buying an extra BKK-CNX ticket on Air Asia or something). CNX is much nicer and more fun, and the Chabad shliach there is awesome.
How can I do CNX? Im arriving in BKK Wednesday late at night, so I am sleeping over in BKK. Now, I am not getting up 5 o'clock in the morning, I will not be ready to take a flight to CNX until 11:00 in the morning so by the time I get to CNX I have maybe a half a day which is definitely not enough for CNX... Now, Sunday morning I have to be back in BKK for my flight to MLE. Not possible..
Not possible within his itinerary. He's already pushing it as it is: 3 days in MLE is just not enough, IMHO.
Again, if I can't be there for Shabbos this is what I have to do. moish is going for 3 days, CBS was there for 3/4 days.. CBS writes that this amount of days is perfect for the Maldives.
The only difference between option 4 and 5 is where I will be spending from Thu till Fri morning, either SIN or BKK.
With this in mind, do you guys still recommend BKK? Meir, do you have anything in specific why you recommend BKK over SIN?
(It looks like Kanchanaburi is just 2 hour drive from BKK, maybe I should spend my stay over there? From the DDF wiki it seems that there is nice things what to do there).
