Here is what I’m doing in July. One night Bangkok then direct flight to Phuket ($20US one-way). Nine days Phuket then direct flight to Pattaya ($67US) Nine days in Pattaya then Taxi back to Bangkok for my last two nights. Taxi and Airline tickets should be less than $100US. Bangkok can be fun, but the traffic makes things suck if you want to leave for trips outside the entertainment areas. The smog sucks as well and I never remember when flying as aircrew into BKK being able to see the runway until about 10 miles out. There is always a haze over the city. You will find the beaches in Phuket unbeatable. The nightlife should be outstanding. I have never been on the ground there but I have flown over Phuket. Pattaya is simply the bomb. Been there many times. Beaches are nice but not like those of Phuket. The nightlife is like nothing else in the world, including Bangkok. So make several destinations and you will be most fulfilled.
