Bangkok return flights from 260 GBP from Manchester starting November.

[Scouse123]

I've just learned that Norse Atlantic Airways will commence direct flights from Manchester starting Wednesday, November 26th, aboard a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

 

Only two classes will be offered: Economy and Economy Plus. Flights starting at 11,500 baht return ( 259 GBP )

 

The main worry is what kind of customers these flights will be carrying!

 

I'll be sticking with the One World alliance group of airlines, I think.

You'll never get a ticket that cheaply.

 

You can regularly get a single On Oman from Phuket to the UK for about £160.

I share your concerns. Can you imagine +12 hours trapped onboard a plane full of scousers?!

Indeed, it is a bargain airfare. However, the idea of any sort of stopover in HKT is anathema to me.
