Good morning gents(and any ladies). I will be returning to LOS at Xmas and have come across a direct flight from London to Bangkok on Phuket Air(lines) for £500 plus tax. I gather this airline only started in 2001 and was wondering if anyone has travelled with them.

Any reports would be appreciated as the price seems to good to be true. Thanks.

I saw they had a full page ad in Bangkok Post yesterday, a special promotion to London (return) from Bangkok (Phuket?) for just 19900 baht + taxes during this low season. Quite cheap, I pay almost double to fly to Sweden next month.

I've seen their plane. Its an old Thai Air B747, but the price aint bad...

I thought they were getting some pre-loved 747-300's from KLM.

My mate called one of those numbers on Teletext and this what was quoted.Sorry until I see him(he`s working nights at the mo) I cannot tell you which one but from experience they all have access to the same info.Flight is from Gatwick so if you can get it you will have direct train to the airport.

ETV - 2pm from Gatwick on 23 December arrives BKK 7.55am on 24th.Return flight is 11.45pm on 6 January gets in to Gatwick 3.15am according to flight schedule but that would make it a 10 anda half hour flight! I suspect it arrives about 5am. I haven`t had confirmation yet as my mate booked the flight so these details are provisional. Hope you can make it.

Sorry Steve,don`t have number as my mate booked it but as mentioned above I think he got number off Teletext. I bleieve they all use the same central booking system so call any of the Worldwide flight Centres and they should be able to sort you out.
