What do you think? I dont know what you mean by legs?
Chiang Mai to Krabi is more expensive but still cheap in GBP (aprox £39) 2250 thb, other than that the rest of flights internal are very cheap, 500 thb!
Thanks OM!

Your itinery JJUK but I'd consider a couple of things.
Bkk, then straight into Patts might be jumping in the deep end a little for a first time traveller, might be better to put Patts at the end of your trip, when you have adjusted a little and got used to some of the differences here to home?
Patong you only give it 4 nights, same as krabi and one day more than Phi Phi. Phi Phi is a samll island not much to see or do, I'd consider cutting that by 1 day, Krabi small town not a lot to do, I'd consider cutting that by 1 or 2 days and the last leg to Bkk I'd definately cut back to just 1 day, you will have already had 4 nights and as said its a dirty, stiffling town. Remember my first visit there, nearly turned round and went home again, hated it, didn't feel settled until I hit Phuket, air at last to breath, scenery and beaches.
So with my saved days I would increase my days in Phuket, biggish island, hell of a lot to do and see, great nightlife, and if budget allows I'd add in a trip to Samui.
Either that or when you get here and experience Thailand first hand, most of your plans will go awol, so if you manage half of it, youv'e done better than most of us. Heck you can always do some of the other places next time!!!
