leprechaun Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Hello. I'm in the process of looking for cheap return flights to the UK for my family. Do you perhaps know of a good agent in BKK that can offer cheap, reliable flights? Please supply address and/or telephone number. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SK1972 Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Leprechaun........you didnt mention your budget nor whether you want a direct flight. Here are 2 agents I always use Reliance Holidays (Thailand) Ltd Tel : +662 203 0088 Ask for Khun Usa at Ext 230 Topline Ticketing Tel : +662 860 1515 Ask for Khun Suporn I believe some of the airlines offer better prices if you book online, much better than the agents. Visit www.emirates.com. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOVOX Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 you're unlikely to get cheaper deals for long haul flights. You'll find that all the agents offer basically the same price for each airline, because they're all hooked up to the same computer network. As i recall, the cheapest airline to the u.k was china airlines. emirates is also quite cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SK1972 Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Apparently Phuket Air is cheap, ranging around THB25,000 return depending on season. Emirates is only cheap if you book online. The agents here charge an arm and a leg !!! I got mine through Emirates online booking for THB26,700 (all inclusive) in November return with a 2 hour stopover in Dubai for shopping!!! The agent wanted THB32,000 excluding tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jockstar Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 You didnt say when you are going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leprechaun Posted December 14, 2004 Author Share Posted December 14, 2004 I intend to fly around March/April and return just after Christmas. Plenty of time yet. I need to check with the school that I'm working at to see if these dates are suitable, if not I'm flexible to some degree. Have found so far that the cheapest on line ticket is with emerates at 32,000 Baht. I know that I can get cheaper, hence the orginal question asking for reliable agents.

leprechaun Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 Hi Jockstar. In answer to your question I'll be back on Thursday. Didn't want to pass on this flu virus to my students. No, I'm not doing a 'Sally'. See you later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SK1972 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 (edited) Leprechaun...........you didnt book it right with Emirates. I tried a booking as follows :- Route : BKK-Dubai-London Gatwick-Dubai-BKK Dep BKK 22 Mar at 1.20am Rtn 3 Apr at 9.15pm Total was THB28,470.00 (all inclusive) I didnt know when you intended to travel but you mentioned Mar/Apr. THB32,000 is outrageous and must be through an agent. I heard Phuket Air is horrible and about the same price. If you need help, SHOUT!!
