We were quoted 450 including tax on Thai Airways for the third week of February. I heard there might be some tickets on Vietnam Airlines going for around 300...looking into it tomorrow.
What have you paid? |

That sounds about right--- booked and purchased my tix for this coming Sunday (Seolal weekend) last week for 436, all inclusive.
Just keep in mind that most foreigners need a visa for Vietnam, EVEN IF TRANSITING through HCM or Hanoi airports...(At least for US citizens, not sure about Canucks, Aussies, Brits) Getting a transit visa may be more of a hassle than just shelling out a few man wons more.... |

Yup, 450 is all including taxes.
The tickets through Vietnam airlines are really really cheap...but I didn't think about the Vietnamese visa and I remember it being a pain when I went there before. |

One word tells why. I'd never go direct. Stop over in HK or Taiwan next time. |

| Are you buying these tickets on the Thai Airways website or are you buying them thru a travel agent or the local Thai Airways office? |

I use
www.tourexpress.co.kr
and
www.onlinetour.co.kr
I was hoping to find a stop over flight for Koh Samui but only direct, so it's gonna be a flight to Bangkok and then connector. |

If you don't change planes and stop in HK or Taiwan it's still classed as direct.
So the INCH-HK-Seoul TG695 for example is a direct flight even though it stops in HK for 45minutes |

Yeah I know. Unfortunately my boss sucks and would only give me a short amount of holiday time so it had to be direct.
Anyway, tonight Phuket here I come  |
