seancar29 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hello all, the wife is after a short break in June and wants a direct return flight from london to bangkok. I've been on the net most of the morning and not getting very far. The prices still seem to be a bit high for this time of year. Does anyuone out there know who i should be talking to to get a good deal. It might be ok if its june or july, just for a two week break to see the family. It does really have to be direct though as she has trouble getting out of heathrow let alone changing in Dubai or Abu dabi. I appreciate any help you might be able to give. Sean.

Spartacus_m Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Easy answer to this. Go on Eva Air website. In June and July £486 return. Not sure where you have been looking but they are also on opodo, travel bag etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

londoedan Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I've been looking for a direct flight in June - and to minimise my travel time by cutting out the stops in AMS or Qatar / Dubai etc. I'm going one-way and the price on the Thai Airways website of £360 seems a good deal. Not sure how much a return is. I do like flying with Thai Airways. Londo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madforit Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) I was going to book Qatar as usual, via Doha (boy oh boy do I hate that airport) as it used to be the cheapest (around £500 ish last time I went) and a good airline too. But it had rotten connection times and the horrible layover in Doha of course. But came across a superb deal...direct flight Heathrow to BKK return over period of 1 month £398 !!! The airline... (unbelieveably I think).... Qantas Roll on 27/6 sorry..should have added...that was a direct booking through Qantas Website, obviously cattle class, and price inclusive of all taxes, surcharges etc etc. Edited May 12, 2009 by madforit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alant Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 eva will be hard to beat, in thailand travel agents beat airlines own web prices but i am not sure for uk starting legs, try airline network or southall travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenn Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 May I also suggest you try the search on our website painai.com (link with sponsors at the top of the page). We search all major airlines and should give you some good ideas. It's still in beta though and prices are shown in USD but you can easily convert them yourself. Air Asia is now also included in the search (not Air Asia X yet). Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seancar29 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Thanks everyone for your help, I have used westeast in the past and also found them very good with the price and service. This time i have booked with Wise miser a branch of Benz travel, another one i have used before. Got Eva flights from LHR on 6th june and coming back on the 23rd june for £445 which includes their £10 booking fee. All in all not a bad price i suppose. Thanks again Sean.

cigar7 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I see Etihad has London Heathrow THB 16500 Coral Economy 01 May 09 - 30 Jun 09 This has one stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealityCheck Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 westeast travel in hamersmith, in 6 years i havent been able to beat their price with eva/thai anywhere I found WestEast Travel very unreliable. They quoted me a good price. When I agreed to buy, they "blanked" me - didn't even respond to any of the 3 emails I sent them. I'm guessing that they couldn't actually supply at the quoted price. Ignoring clients is extremely rude. They should have apologised and offered another option - it would have saved both the sale, and a lot of frustration.

Asianrider Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 have always found Westeast and Netflight good for booking e-tickets, websites very user friendly ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerman1 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Hi My mate has booked to travel next week and his fare with Etihad Airways on their website was £384 for an adult. He also has 2 kids but not sure of that price. Very cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Got this email from Thai today: http://www.fkonline.co.uk/thai/emails/2009...esV2online.html Also, Westeast have got some flight offers with "free" hotel stays, including the Hyatt and Sukhothai The pages seem to appear "randomly" so here are the links: http://www.westeasttravel.com/user/strPage.asp?idlink=40 http://www.westeasttravel.com/user/strPage.asp?idlink=41 RAZZ Edited May 19, 2009 by RAZZELL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
