I just saw this advert on the Thaivisa homepage.

Is it my lack of morning caffeine or is there a misleading price?

Not misleading , that's the way they advertise:

Base Fare :

4700.00 THB

Fuel and Insurance Surcharges:

1560.00 THB

Passenger Service Charge:

700.00 THB

Total:

6960.00 THB

^But it says, 4,700thb 'all inclusive'.

^But it says, 4,700thb 'all inclusive'.

Not really,

it says:

All EXclusive

Actually, it says all EXclusive. What a silly way to advertise fares.

Wel this is Thailand. What do you expect commonsense????

all around the world its a usual way of advertising like this.

(its written clearly: All Exclusive- so where is something wrong ??)

If you look at other adverts by the same company to different destinations they say INclusive, so why is this one different?

I didn't mean it was silly to advertise fares and then add on fees and charges. Of course that is a normal practice with nearly all airlines. I meant that it was silly to specifically have a banner proclaiming "all exclusive," as if it's something exciting for the consumer. But, I guess maybe it's brilliant rather than silly....I bet it brings a lot of customers who didn't read carefully to the website.

(its written clearly: All Exclusive- so where is something wrong ??)

And I never said (or intended to imply) that there was anything wrong with the ad. Just that it was silly.

<deleted> scam

what do you call it, when you go to a restaurant and look at the prices in the menu card.

And at the bottom of the page is written: Prices do not include 10% service charge and VAT.

This I would call SCAM

That is the first time I have ever seen "all EXclusive". Very silly, would imply excluding flight, baggage, whatever; most likely the retard who wrote the ad intended something else. Add-ons are the greatly favored tricks of AirAsia and RyanAir.

Typical Thai fares all look quite good when the quote says...say Bt 20 K...Bangkok /London return which is about right in the reverese direction (Lon/Bk)....Jet-Oman-Kingf etc but then when you try and book ....

it DOUBLES with the xtras.....CRAZY....scam....but it seems to be accepted and all they all seem to do it.

Imagine (sa above) going into a hamburger joint and ordering the big wotever .....99bt but when it arrives .......err that will be ......180...or whatever....

as they say...TIT....

That's like the "going out for business" sale scam.

When ya see A thailand airfare just double it,that'll be closer to the real price.
