SRS - Travel card or Travelers Check

[Gamergirl]

Hey everyone!

I'm new on the forum and I live in the US.  I will be having my surgery during May at the PAI in Thailand.  So excited!

I have a question.  I have found a place that will give me a Travelers check for the amount that I need for surgery, but I was thinking a different option - Visa prepaid debit travel cards - would be easier to acquire and use.

To me it seems like the travelers check has a locked in amount to cash, whereas the cards (Three $5,000 cards) could be used by PAI until the total has been met and still have a little left on one for use during my travel.

Does PAI accept this form of payment , and does it sound like a better plan then a travelers check ? I am waiting on a reply from my PAI contact about it, but I thought maybe I would pick your thoughts too.  Thanks!

I like your Tao Te Ching quote.

You might contact them directly and ask. Also, you might check whether Visa charges international transaction fees (usually it's like 3%)
