guys
i fly roundtrip every year between Thailand and Europe usually for under 40,000 THB or just a little over
this year i am buying the ticket back to Europe and i can't believe the prices: 50,000-60,000 THB!
(yes, i know the Euro is down but not 30%!)
has something happened why prices are so much higher?
or is this just a bad time to buy? would prices get better after middle January?
if you have an agent that can help me do better than that, would you please give me your recommendation?
thanks!

Can you recommend a good shipping broker, preferrably located in Chiang Mai? I am shipping about 300 kg of books back home and my post office in Europe tends to lose packages so prefer not to ship by Royal Thai mail (which is otherwise excellent).

Actually... Thais have been burning rice fields and forests for --what?-- seven hundred years now? So how come the problems hit us in such a huge way only now? The reason, folks, is the same why islands off Western Japan -- no industry and no cars -- experience dense smog -- it's the Asian Brown Cloud aka Giant Brown Cloud (I'm unable to post a link, but just google the term).
What can you do? Only one thing, it seems: get out.
