try a local travel agent: they often have a few seats on a charter trip that need to be filled...
http://www.zuji.com has a good reputation, and Netscape/AOL travel used to have a good search engine that allowed a lot of flexibility in shopping for flights.
don't forget to collect your flyer miles!  |

| Check out the prices direct from the airline websites, esp. China Airlines and Eva Airlines. Maybe it depends on which city you are departing, but I found the airline website prices to be much cheaper than Expedia, etc. |

| Hi, I booked a flight yesterday from LAX to BKK for $1461, taxes included, on China Airlines from their website. I have flown with China Airlines a few times and they are pretty decent and punctual. Good luck. |

Thank you... I checked on China Air and actually found one at a very reasonable price. In addition- has anyone flown on domestic flights around Thailand? I am thinking of flying into BKK and taking a very cheap flight to Phuket- but am wondering if they have similar baggage weight rules in Thailand as they do in Europe and if I will run into problems since I did not purchase the tickets together.
Thanks ahead of time. |
