I have just paid £520 for a direct flight with Thai Airways to BK (is this expensive), was wondering what other BM's have paid for their flights during April?

no not with thai mate i'm flying with eva. booked it through ebookers and it gave me the option on screen. highly recommend it though if you can upgrade. i done it last year and the extra leg room and decent seats make a hell of a difference for trying to get some kip..

i paid 399 quid each for me and my 2 sons going with jet air (not direct) arrive april 18th.
the price you paid in my opinion is not great but certainly not too bad. i have seen direct flights for as little as 430 quid over the last few months but you have to get in quick to get those. i check flights every day, its like an addiction and can really piss you off when you see the prices go down. over the last couple of weeks though prices of flights in general seem to have shot up. for instance, the exact same flight i am on and paid 399 quid for would cost me 700 quid if i booked it today. crazy.imho there is no rhyme or reason to flights to bangkok from heathrow, just keep checking out the leading sites, opodo, ebookers, expedia, netflights,travelocity to name but a few and its the luck of the draw.

Not strictly April, but flying out 24 March & returning 21 April. Paid £680 from Newcastle with Emirates; short stopover. I had previously seen the same flight as low as £530, but didn't have the funds until a couple of weeks ago.

Last April I paid £400, Etihad from Heathrow, although I had to pay £100 to fly down there with BA from Newcastle, so same same but not for me.

Good job I didn't do the same this year, the twats are on strike AGAIN! :Circle_Sharks:

Peace. :GoldenSmile1:

Thai air is generally always expensive. There profit margin isn't as good as other airlines due to the structure of there business. Look at various Thai news sites to understand what extra charges they might have to handle :GoldenSmile1:
I'd try other airlines for cheaper flights. If your looking for direct flights because time and less connections I'd stay with Thai.

£475 leave good Friday April 2, cheapest flight I've had in 6 attempts. China Airlines from Newcastle.

On the downside, it looks like my annual Christmas trip is on hold, prices are crazy for leaving December 15.

emirates - £800+, can be had a little cheaper so as long as you don't mind a 8 hour layover lol.
China - £1000+
finnair - £930

past 2 years paid no more than £630, won't be going unless the prices come down.
