I have heard that those Onward Tickets websites who give you basically ‘fake’ tickets were illegal and not accepted by either airlines or at immigration. Anyone?

: So you still pay for a basic US phone plan or just port your number to Google Voice and then cancel your US plan? When do you do this, last day before you leave the US? Then add a Thai SIM (or in my case due to iPhone 14, an eSIM) when you get to Thailand but then add another eSIM if you travel back to the US to visit?

For those who use Google Voice, do you only have a Thai phone & Thai phone number or do you keep your US phone in the cheapest plan and only use it when you need to transfer funds or to return calls to the US; or do you get rid of your US phone and plan for good? Then what do you do if you travel back to US to visit?

I brought mine in a large golf travel bag & also stuffed a bunch of other clothes in it as well. Worked out perfect just had to go thru Oversize Baggage, no extra cost as long as you stay under the weight limit.
