My mention of Travel Agency was in reply to the OPs question. Of course you should use multipe travel sites to find times and fares, but in my experience, it seems cheaper, and safer, to go directly to the airline once you have found what you want. Let's face it, all sites SHOULD give the same schedules, and seats available. 

If you do get into any difficulties, the Travel Sites do not have anyone at the airport to help, the Airlines do!

 

Exactly. Use ita matrix (software from the same company that most airlines use) to find flight options, and after finding one that fits your time and budget, go book on that airline's website.

If you have the airline's app on your smartphone, it is even easier.

Right now, a 1-way to Europe is cheap as chips. However, a 1-way coming back is expensive as it's summer holiday time for Europe.

 

Better to book a return ticket and accept any additional charges they will apply if you opt to come back sooner (probably more expensive).

 

BTW, who uses travel agencies these days? Book online, either by any of the airfare aggregator websites or directly with the airline.

Good idea, thanks.

Definitely wrong for one-way from Bangkok to London.

Air India is cheaper if you fancy 😳
