jay-uk Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 I'm bringing over my wife's sister to help out with the kids in September. We have noticed all the prices are much higher than usual (no suprise really with all the fuel surcharges) but wanted to know if anyone has managed to secure any good deals on flights from Thailand to UK with and without connections. Prices from saveflights.com all seem to be around the 50,000+ baht for connections and direct flights with Eva and Emirates. Has anyone found cheaper prices or is this about right considering prices have increased recently. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave the Dude Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) I booked direct with Eva and got return direct flights to LHR next wednesday/back on 5th Oct for GBP700. Good price, I think. Dave Edited August 28, 2008 by Dave the Dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay-uk Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 Thanks for all the help and input. There seems little in the price difference between each airline at the moment and the taxes on top of 11,000 baht are a real sting. Anyone got any more news then keep posting please as I'm going to be booking hopefully in the next 10-14 days. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that price excluding taxes as i noticed on the qatar website they offered a similar price for Sept' but it included an extra 11,000 baht on top. These taxes on the flights are really expensive now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommysboy Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 11000 bt extra taxes. What's that all about? So something initially advertised at 33000 bt will actually cost 44000. Wish I could add a surcharge like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrenova Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Emirates has the lowest surcharges - check their website. Also some deals with Etihad / Qatar / Turkish all around the 40k mark. Etihad and Emirates fly into Manchester I believe which would be easier for Birmingham. Check this out. They update every Friday: http://www.pattayamail.com/massictravel/index.shtml Major deal on Etihad fly by 10/09 - 10/10 for 20,600 plus about 11k taxes. Best deal I think you'll find. Also try email to NPK in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fare Tax Total 1 Adult 33180.00 11375.00 44555.00 THB Flight cost: 44555.00 THB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
