I have to correct myself a bit as I'm confusing trips - I just remembered it wasn't EVA that time but rather Thai Airways I got the May flight with.
Totally agree about paying the extra to avoid the stopover, an additional factor is that you inevitably spend a few quid at the airport so that eats into the savings anyway. That said I'm looking forward to the 1-hour stopover middle east route this time. I need to experience it for myself to know for sure but on paper at least it seems by far the best way, better than direct even.
I've noticed on a few searches I see Sri Lanka Airlines here and there with the cheapest flights. I think a lot of those from £xxx "offers" might be with them but I've not read about them or anyone with experiences flying to BKK with them. Maybe could be a player in a few months time.
