Monkorn Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I don't believe there are any direct flights. Korean Air offers 1 stop, Incheon, from BKK-LAS. The layover at Incheon can be long, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayned Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 The Korean Air has a 16 hour layover in Incheon. The next best is Delta 2 stop with a 12 hour layover in Tokyo and a short layover in LAX. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Short Layover in LAX" I do love your sense of humour. With the arrivals procedures (Tom Bradley) then a full body cavity search from the TSA make sure the layover isn't too short.

fifthcolumn Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 We used KAL for our Southwest trip. Layover sucked but we avoided LAX. ICN is decent for layover though. I forget why I opted against LA. Broken airport, short plane change, shitty immigration. Last year we went thru LAX and was no problems with wife (4th US trip). Vegas is small easy airport and immigration was a non issue. We scored a great room for our first and ladt nts in the city. I disliked the city very much, the tourists were just sad. The gambling tables, low brow rollers, sad. People all fat (hey, it's Murika). Adverts everywhere for horrible buffets. What a sad life, that this is a holiday for some. Take your time and holiday pay, fly to this ugly city full of quite questionsble people and blow it all on gambling machines and tables. Meanwhile, a short drive away is Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon. Lake Havasu and Powell. But hey, thanks for the 22 room Harrah's and thanks for the free snacks.

rakman Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 You can do a couple of nice flights depending on what your travel days are. Korea has a one stop for 4 hrs in ICN, total trip time 20 hr 10 min. us$ 1858 United has a 2 layover NRT and SFO with 21 hr total trip time. us$1519 United has another (first segment on ANA) has a flight pair with 1 stop in NRT for 2.5 hrs and a second stop in SFO for 2.25 hrs. Total trip time 21 hrs $1558 Another is Korean with a 1 hr 10 min stop in ICN and 3.5 hr in Seattle, with the last hop on Alaska 22 hr total. $1686 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinCityGr8One Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I flew from Bangkok into Vegas with Korean Air on 02 DEC 2013 after a 4H layover in Incheon. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did someone ask for a review of Las Vegas? There are plenty of Michelin starred restaurants in Las Vegas. Great food. Every casino has a VIP room if you think you're better than everyone else. Sounds like you took the cheapo trip. Anyway, back to the OP's question. Obviously there are no non-stop flights. Cathay Pacific only has 2-stop service to LAS but it's only 19:20 on the way out with a 2 hour layover at either SFO or LAX, though 25:10 on the return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being from Vegas, you obviously didn't see much of the town. Vegas is a fantastic place to visit. Dozens of great restaurants. Lots of high end casinos. And the people aren't all fat. Nor are all the buffets horrible. Almost 40 million people visited Vegas, with about 7 million being foreigners. So some people obviously like the city. Vegas is not my cup of tea as I don't gamble, but your comments are inappropriate. Same with LAX. I've been in that airport probably 100 times. Many recently for international travel. Never had a problem, even when bringing my wife over on a fiance visa. They were extremely nice and helpful during a very stressful time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Inchon is one of the better airports for a long layover. In the Departures hall, look for "REST STOP" signs. They lead to a mezzanine area with lounge sofas, free showers, inexpensive snack bars and an entertaining small museum of Korean culture. In the Departures hall itself, there are Korean handcraft kiosks that offer free materials and instruction on making some small items...great for kids. They also often have live performances of traditional Korean music and dance If your layover is more than 6 hours, there are free and low cost bus tours of Seoul available from a kiosk at the Arrivals area. They will make sure your tour returns leaving enough time for your scheduled departure. I took a free one last year where they dropped me off in the downtown area then pick me up at a pre-arranged time..It worked out nicely and I really enjoyed myself and got to see a bit of Seoul. The subway also has a station accessible from Arrivals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrowe1973 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 You can get a direct flight out if LAX. It's really hard to find a direct flight from Las Vegas. This is my fourth trip I live in Las Vegas and come to Pattaya for vacation. I like Asiaina airlines the best. The lay over in Korea is very long, but it's a nice place to hang out. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKKdreaming Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 on the USA side you can get easy flights to Las Vegas from Los Angeles, San Fransisco, Seattle and maybe from Hawaii I am not sure if there are direct Asia flights to Denver, San Diego, Phoenix but they are also close to Vegas Sometimes there are cheaper fares to the smaller cities LAX will have the most flights but your connecting flight will be in a separate terminal after you go thru Immigration / Customs there are buses that go between the terminals..... or its not that far of a walk but it is outside..... Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMangosteen Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I'm looking for the lowest priced Business Class round trip ticket from Bangkok to Las Vegas. Layovers within reason no problem as will get Business lounge access I assume. Korean Air is the best times but expensive. Any suggestions?

moe666 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Try EVA from BKK to taipai short lay over 2 hours depending on how you book, then direct to LAX after immigration walk down to Southwest airlines terminal for a less than one hour flight to LV.

With the arrivals procedures (Tom Bradley) then a full body cavity search from the TSA make sure the layover isn't too short. Since you only meet and greet immigration and customs officers upon arrival how do you get a full body cavity search from a TSA agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good hoof from Bradley to Terminal 1... Some reasonable hotels around LAX with free shuttles if you want to freshen up or spend the night.

BKKdreaming Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 one other thought , I bet there are gambling flights direct to Vegas from places like Hong Kong or Mainland China, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMangosteen Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 one other thought , I bet there are gambling flights direct to Vegas from places like Hong Kong or Mainland China, That's a good idea but I think since Macau has opened up, finding a junket to Las Vegas from Asia would be difficult. However, there may as you suggest be charter flights of some type, perhaps just tourism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
