Cheap FIRST CLASS flights DUB-BKK
ITA Software: DUB-BKK GF/BD $1107.70 ALL-IN IN F!!!
This one seems to be a goer from the posts on the above thread. I would advise that you read and understand that thread. Essentially it offers First Class flight with Gulf Air for around £600. This is also worthwhile for those flying out of Heathrow who do a night in dublin then fail to do the final LHR-DUB leg.

A good price,but horribly long layovers in Muscat (15+hrs) going out and LHR 12+ on return. Id think that Id rather pay a little less and a shorter layover. Mind you,never,ever flown Biz before  Also,that 1HR 15MIN stop in LHR outbound is cutting things very fine to get from Terminal1/2 over to Terminal 3 and go through to departures.

Reading through the flyer talk forum,it looks like there a quite a few people having troubles booking this flight for the advertised price.
All may not be what it appears

It's all as it seems - you just need to get the right flights.
Try to avoid the flights with long layovers going out but get one with a long layover coming back (if you want to get off at LHR) - also if you have a long layover as a First class passenger you will get a hotel room provided.

golly, that's quite a question. I was there last month and was with the same girl but in an unattached way I guess it depends on your definition of girlfriend - i would always assume the gf would lead to something - this wont. (i suppose the travel forum is quite a good, rarely read place, to admit that on the night I sent her home, I also went home alone) - aargh the embarassment

55555555 Steve,I think you must now hold the unofficial record for pre-booking your LOS trips. Booked in advance for trip No3 ...........anyone beat that? IJ has to be close.

Haha - did i mention South Africa next month as well now wishing I'd gone for the 15 hour layover in Muscat as it seems a nice place. I'll also fit in 2-3 long weekends to dubai to satisfy my african fetish. It's a wonder I still have a job

You mean you have time to work?? Dubai..............africa fetish?? you have lost me there 5555 Muscat is a very nice city Steve. Absolutely the complete opposite of Dubai. The harbour and souk at Muttrah is a must see if you can get there. Only 20mins drive from the airport

Hmm so will they honour the prices quoted. I fancy they will,but Gulf Air are notorious for overbooking. I can see problems for some passengers when they turn up for their flights.

I have two of my tickets already (had to pay circa £20 EACH for courier from the states!). Gulf Air have made this sort of mistake before and it's been ok - even providing limos and hotels for stopovers, etc.
