Yeah I got an email from my 'contact' at Westeast travel with these great offers the other day. SAying we now have these great offers, as you are a frequent traveler to Thailand, I thought that they would be of alot of interest to you. If you want to book just phone me etc etc.....

I thought that was kind and thoughtful of them! Well apart from the fact that im in los during the whole period and I booked the bloody flights through that agent personally, months ago.

Still, good deals!

Good to get some feedback on these flights once someone takes advantage of them. Let us know how they got on etc.

I know the dates are limited but you can't argue at the price.

If someone books with West East can they let us know how they got on as I would be interested to know. Thanks

Dont forget to add all the taxes onto these West East prices. Its well over £100 and doesnt make the Eva Air flight look such a bargain.

Also posted this info in the link Faulty mentioned..

Asda - Manchester to Phuket - Etihad - January - Return. So the taxes are.........hang on......add the eight and multiply by six take away the five and..........Where's Kev when you need him? Just taking my shoes and socks off.......113.30-ish Pounds in Tax.

Base price per 1 passenger excluding taxes : Adult - 507.50 GBP
Total ticket price for all passengers including taxes is 620.80 GBP.

Is that for the dearer open ended ticket Denver? Im sure the 30 day return ticket is cheaper?? Around £420 inc tax to BKK with Etihad.
Also,your price is through to HKT. Eva Air is to BKK so you have to add another £40 - £70 return depending on who you use.

Still reckon you got a good price.

Hi D,

No, I didn't take that flight. I was just using that as an example of the average tax that needs to be found on top of the advertised flight price as you were explaining. That is from the ASDA website and is a good price IMHO for January.

I jumped on a few sites and the average is 110-120GBP for tax or there abouts as you said. Mine was purchased in Jordan for $1050 - MAN-HKT-RTN Open ended. So around the 544GBP which I was happy with.

Just hope people see through the initial price listed and note the additionals.

Cheers D

Not if you look at the foot of this page from their website

Also,as I pointed out,the prices quoted by the fool monty in the OP did NOT include taxes.

shame that airfare seach on the westeast website doesn't want to work properly. Looks like they want to sell all those special offers - otherwise they can't beat the price the other agents do offer

Yes , but that's the whole point , they "hook" you with the cheap prices but when you actually check it out the prices are usually about 30% higher.

Yep , once you're addicted that's it you start getting the "withdrawal" symptoms and keep reading forums to see who's getting a better "fix" than you.

There are worst sites like Flights Everywhere - Around the World and Cheap Ticket - Call now on 0870 837 5004.

They give you a list of prices for the dates you want to travel and then you phone them and they say sold out or not avaliable.

They are a big waste of time
