smokie36 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 I recently looked at "cheaptickets" website and Aeroflot had a flight for 25K Baht, it involved a 15 hour wait in Moscow before connecting with London flight. What would one do with themselves in Moscow I wonder. Niteflight. Club, not an exhortation to go overnight! I thought you never flew cattle class, Smokie. Nice to see you mixing it with us cheap Charlies Ah nice of you to pop by...oh cheapest of charlies....how about letting me know the super cheap deal then?

exeter Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I've had on a few occasions gone to travel agents thinking they would know best. And they probably do. BUT and it's a big but, they dont always want to give you the best deal. I've not once had an agent tell me of special deals unless I specifically mention one I had heard about from other source. Anyhow.....back on topic..... I dont know but would check EVA Was the etihad fair you got inincluding fuel surcharge etc? I came out with Arsenal Airways ( Emirates ) found them to be very good, with just a 2 hour stop over, woth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would one do with themselves in Moscow I wonder. I would suggest a ride on the underground and quick march round Red Square, then into Macdonalds for lunch.

champken Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 OP, ive just been back on Srilankan website and for the dates you want its 29500b inclusive. The stopovers are quite long but they do provide you with free hotel accomodation. p.s. ive flown with this airline a number of times and i have always found them to be ok, and i actually quite like having the nights accomodation there as it not only breaks up the journey but also means you are refreshed for the second part 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiG16 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I think the Sri Lankan people have changed things. Their flight out of bkk now seems to leave at night get to Colombo early morning and then theres many hours day time layover. With no hotel perhaps? At least thats what it was when I looked last week. Might have another look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayinkrabi Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Not wanting to hijack but has anyone ever flown Air China? Are they as bad as I think they are? Hijacking aside..could be relevant to the OP as someone has already pointed out why save a few bob when the 'experience' can be terrible.I used air china once many yrs ago & the experience was sooo bad I threw my return ticket away and re-booked with a decent airline.

I feel the same. Saving a couple of thousand Baht only to spend 15 hours sitting on the floor of an airport is not my idea of a good deal. Anyone can confirm there is a hotel offered in Columbo by SriLankan Airways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
