Oil has gone up >50% in the last too years and so have many other commodities - hence your higher airfares.
THB is stronger because China is growing ~10% a year and investors are piling money into this region causing strength in the THB (and all regional currencies) - the pound is just beginning to weaken against the USD so would not expect any quick return to 70+ GBP/THB exchange rates.
Current rate here is 62.78 (Look here -->).
Inflation here is strong - you'll have to bite the bullet - its still ~ 40% cheaper here than back in Blighty.
