EVA air are doing specials on their website for direct flights to BKK when booked over next weekend. With prices at about £440 in economy, £600 in Prem econ(not worth it!) and £1200 in business.
Also STA travel has Thai econ flights to BKK for £430 at the moment! But dates of departure and numbers are low!

Roger
So you didn't elect to go via Dublin then  Qatar just finished an offer a couple of days ago for £375 flight from LHR (or £1175 business  ) but not sure when you could fly up until.What dates are you looking at (i assume Songkran), and I'll keep an eye out. As an aside because of other committments I missed the offer for 1000baht/night at the Bangkok Conrad in the presidential suite!!!!!!

£461 was probably exceptional!
Qatar are similar price to Singapore , as are BA/Qantas (£492) which would be a direct flight then a cheapy to HKT ..... Something to consider - the offers won't start for a month or two ...... Also need to consider mileage programs - Qatar is one of the best in respect to have family members. - don't ignore this can mean one flight in ...four(ish).... is free.

Im thinking the same too Steve. Take the cost of the BangkokAir flight [£70] off that price and it was a bargain. I got it through ebookers,around mid Oct so I will hold on just in case. I rather like Etihad as a carrier too,along with the short stop at AUH for the duty frees. I already have a Q card for airmiles with Qatar from a previous trip with them,so if the Etihad deal doesn't come about,it looks like they will be the preferred airline. I'll look into getting the whole family on it. What I do want is a short stop in any of the ME countries,Doha,Abu Dhabi or Dubai as I find it breaks the long journey up nicely. So that counts out Singapore,BA/Qantas,Malaysian and Thai.

patience ......
www.expedia.co.uk Select "flight and hotel" select "more destinations" leaving from: LON going to: BKK departing: 27/03/07 returning: 16/04/07 select "i only need a hotel for part of my trip" hotel check-in: 15/04/07 hotel check-out: 16/04/07 rooms: 1 adults: 3 (i assume) then click on search order results by price. (if you go on from there don't forget to deslect trip insurance). And there you have it: £401 from LGW £406 from LHR

No problem, leaves just about enough left out of £460 to fly Thai business class to Phuket  Edit: That would only be enough for a one way biz ticket ...... maybe not a bad idea Last edited by t0rn : 03-09-2006 at 17:39.

OK All booked up now  £406 each Had to fiddle around with the hotel booking as there are 4 ?children with us aged 16,17,18,19 and they dont accept reservations from under 18's. Got over it though messing about with allocation. Right,off to BKKAir now for BKK-HKT tickets. Think I'll not bother with biz class on Thai,the trip is too short Once again Steve,many thanks for your help here.I owe you a few beers

No problem at all Roger, glad I could help, don't forget to get to get them all enrolled as family members in your Qmiles account - should be about enough for one free ticket next time.

Any idea if you can book as far ahead as Mar/Apr 07? Air Asai,One2Go, and Nok Air websites only go up to Mar 07 so I can't put in my return date. Maybe have to wait one month I am guessing. Thai Air economy BKK - HKT has gone up a fair bit,quoting me 6600baht return BangkokAir doesn't have the dep times I'm looking for.

NOK Air currently fly 3 times a day BKK/HKT (in both directions) but you can only book 3/4 months in advance on their website. At the moment up to 14th Jan 2007.
