Now then

Basically, after my contract is finished, I`m planning on going to Thailand to sun it up for a month before venturing back home to England.
I was just wondering what the better option would be to get the air ticket, whether it be to get it on the t`internet or in Bangkok???
If it`s better on the net, what websites are ideal and if in Bangkok, what and where are decent agencies???

Cheers!

Better to get your ticket in Thailand. Internet price to book a ticket from Korea to Thailand to Canada 2000$+. Cost to book ticket to Thailand 400$ cost to book ticket in Thailand to Canada 600$

Also, where/whats the names of the agencies in Bangkok to get the tickets from?

much appreciated

Re: Travel agencies in Bangkok

If you wanted to shop around for a good price in Bangkok, basically there are four main areas where you could buy cheap tickets:


1. Khao San Road
A very dusty dirty run-down backpacker area selling cheap tickets to a very budget crowd. Can't get there by train (use bus).

2. Siam
May find an ok travel agency around the several department stores.

3. Silom Road
Two or three travel agencies here.

4. Sukhumvit
Probably the best place to start. Many hotels and several travel agencies.

Or pick up a copy of the Bangkok Times and read through the travel ads comparing flight prices. They will have phone numbers and most will speak English.
