Thailand for Xmas

Hi,

We are planning on going to Bangkok for Xams to visit my BIL.

Cheapest flights I can find so far are £2,720.40 for a family - 2 adults 2 children flying 11 Dec coming back 31 DEc. Through Flightcentre.co.uk

We can be slightly flexible on the dates, but need to fly direct do to children.

Can anybody find a flight cheaper

Thanks

Helen

  • Not sure where you want to fly from but 11th-31st from Manchester to Bangkok flying Qatar Airways comes in at £2,036.80 GBP. We fly with them to Hong Kong in October, hope this helps.

    If you can make it cheaper do so. If it's not reduced, in Primark, off ebay or free I can't have it

  • Have a look at Lees Travel which is where many Southeast-Asian expats go for flights back home. There're currently flight offers for London-Bangkok available:

    £255 on Kuwait Airways
    £365 on Thai Airways

    Both prices are without taxes but both airlines flight direct to Bangkok without any stopovers so might be worth checking out if the prices apply to when you want to travel! The website is: http://www.leestravel.com/

    Hope this helps.

    Kuwait Airways flies direct to Thailand? Yeah, from Kuwait.
