KED Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Normally, I start my air fare search with Kayak. However, I would like to book a roundtrip flight betwen Bangkok and Chiang Mai in August - Kayak only shows Thai Airways - it doesn't show Air Asia/ Nok Air/Bangkok Airways or Lion Air. Is there any one site which shows ALL carriers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigt3365 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I don't think you'll see all the local airlines in any site like Kayak, etc. I've tried to list as many as I know about here: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/527870-airline-information-and-flight-deals-for-expats/ Unfortunately, you'll have to visit each website to see what their rates and deals are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Most regional LCCs are omitted from the large GDSes and thus from consolidators/web retail. You'd have to first figure out which carriers service the city pair (BKK/DMK-CNX), then look at those airlines distribution channels/web-sites. PG, TG, WE (Thai Smile) for BKK-CNX FD, DD, SL for DMK-CNX There could be more, I excluded code-shares, maybe check the AOT/CNX website for arrivals/departures, sift for BKK and DMK? Note that code-shares, flights operated by one airline but sold/marketed by another, can represent value for a whole bunch of reasons. TG and PG codeshare with many airlines for BKK-CNX. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phetphet Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Not a website, but there is an app called ThaiFlight that might interest you if you have an iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Not a website, but there is an app called ThaiFlight that might interest you if you have an iPhone. Wow...that looks great! I'll give it a try. Have you used it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishsmile Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 catch the train you can get all the info you need in one place. the train station. Safer using a noose rather than risking a slow crushing agonising death in one of these rust buckets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigt3365 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Not a website, but there is an app called ThaiFlight that might interest you if you have an iPhone. I'm playing around with this now. Very nice. Shows all arrivals and departures for several Thai airports, but not all. Also has info for the airport link, BTS and MRT. Sweet! Seems they also do one for the train. I'm checking that out now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Maybe this will be of use to you http://www.domesticflightsthailand.com/ Very nice! But it doesn't search Air Asia and other LCCs. I searched BKK - Krabi and it only showed Bangkok Airways. ;-( P.S. I just pinned it...thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but that is the trouble with most of these sites, their "favoritism" doesn't always include the airline one is looking for. Even the `big` sites simply ignore some `big` airlines, I guess they did not pay enough to be included in the airline price games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Very nice! But it doesn't search Air Asia and other LCCs. I searched BKK - Krabi and it only showed Bangkok Airways. ;-( A lot of LCCs use DMK so you may need to use that to search (even though in the big GDSes BKK as a code does include DMK). PG uses BKK/SBIA exclusively. Some like this Android app.: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zvzz.android.timetable Edited June 2, 2014 by lomatopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I don't think you'll see all the local airlines in any site like Kayak, etc. Skyscanner shows AirAsia Bangkok Airways China Eastern Lao Airlines Nok Air Thai Airways for me when I do a random date search for Bangkok (any) and CNX, which isn't bad. Nice, but surely you should restrict to non-stop flights. Who would fly to Chiang Mai via Laos or China with 1 or even 2 stops (19:45h flight time). So Lao and China Eastern is not useful.

KittenKong Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I just did the search on a random date to see what came back. I'm not interested in doing the trip at all. Those who are interested in doing the trip can make their own selections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
