Noodles Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I'm looking for a cheap one way to LHR for my son and I around the 20th april. I want to buy the one way so I can return to Thailand using a return ticket which is cheaper going LHR-BKK-LHR. So far I have found; Air India at £502 / 2h stop in dehli Kingfisher at £569 / 1h stop in Mumbai Gulf Air at £609 / 2h stop in Bahrain Jet Airways at £647 / 1h stop in Mumbai Kuwait airways is next in price but will never fly them again and next to that is Qatar, but thats going past by budget. Any recomendations out of the onces I've listed above? Prices listed are for the both of us. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) AirAsia. Online is cheap but goes Stanstead.. Edited March 1, 2011 by transam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunDave Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Check out Malaysia Airlines via KL. Around £400 on your date, full service and 34 inch seat pitch in economy. *** Sorry disregard - just realised your prices are for two.

steve187 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I dont think you will find anything much cheaper,i had a look at all the usual places. I was looking for the same as you for early april, and had to travel on 30th march to get a direct flight at a reasonable price, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Thanks. Has anyone flown Gulf Air recently? Whats the food/entertainment/transiting like with this airline. I'm steering towards this one as I've been reading all the stories on here of people transiting through Mumbai. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snuggzzz Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Try Emerald Travel based in London 0044 (0)207-312-1700, my stepson got a one way fare BKK to LHR for around £300 one-way with EVA AIR last September. I puchased e-ticket on-line and emailed it to him............no problems Edited March 1, 2011 by snuggzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESB7 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Email Merv the swerve at BOE and ask him to do his job properly......if he did maybe by the time you go the price in Sterling may be a lot cheaper.....but dont hold your breathe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubbaJohnny Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Air Asia from 249 quidat present from KL arrives evening Stansted 13 hrs later avery long trip From C Mai only 3 hrs to KL no horrid swampy I think fares with Air Asia from there or Bangers from a tenner online plus taxes so around 300 all in as this seems to be what you need to live in London I would opt for one of the better Gu;f Airlines ,Oman Air very nice not busy or Emirates NB Kuwait and Saudi are dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non stop to heathrow for 16,200 baht. same price here but for the 30th March Thanks for your replies, just looked through a load of Gulf Air reviews and theres no way I'm taking my son on one of their planes. Where and when did you book your eva flight, because going through their website I am getting Adult THB 21,500 Child THB 16,500 for april and the start of may.

Thanks I last flew Gulf Air ten years ago. Never again and I hear the planes are still the same unbelievably imo.... As others have said EVA is a good budget choice...of those you listed I'd choose Kingfisher but transiting any Indian airport will give you a headache. Have a great trip!
