All the khunyays and khunyaas are getting some love and respect from the Bangkok’s mass transit system this Songkran – grandpas too.
Riders over 60 get unlimited free BTS rides during the holidays from April 13 to 15 if they just show their ID at the ticket booth, according to the company’s Surapong Loranya.
The “Happy Songkran” campaign, he said, is to tighten family relationships, and encourage youngsters to take their gramps and grans to travel Bangkok in BTS style, Daily News reported.
So as long as you’ve started your sixth cycle, you can just ride that thing all day long. As for senior farangs? We hope so, but it wasn’t clear at press time what forms of ID would be recognized.
