Should I buy a ticket at this rate or am I paying too much? Any advice greatly appreciated, the ticket is for travel around April 1.

[crlb2006]

the 550,000 won includes all taxes and fuel surcharges also.

anyone gotten a significantly better deal lately?

For April 1st 404,000 w/ Thai air and 380,000 w/ some other airline. These prices are the total.

If that ticket is for February then it's probably about normal. I haven't looked lately so double check your price elsewhere. What I am sure of though is that tickets get significantly cheaper in March and April. So if you ticket is for then then it is too much as others have suggested.

When I went 2 weeks ago I paid 450,000won for a round trip to Phuket through bangkok and that included all taxes

[crlb2006]

hey friends.
I've been waiting all month for Thai Airways to release its rates for April but Soho travel tells me this hasn't happened yet.

Has anyone stumbled accross anything worthwhile to Thailand for the month of April? I really appreciate everyone's help.

I paid 440,000won to Thailand on April 29th for a return trip.

I don't think you will get much cheaper than that. Maybe a few man won off if you book with a Korean travel agent. I booked directly on the website.

[crlb2006]

450,000 to Thailand would be great, but the Thaiair website quotes my rate at 750,000.

[harlowethrombey]

if you're paying that much you should get a hotel package with it.

last time I went to Thailand was from Japan and got a round-trip with accomadation and airport pick-up for only slightly more than you're going to pay for one-way.

keep searching, Thailand is desperate for tourism after the airport debacle so you should be able to find a better deal than that. Go through a travel agent if you want, they might be able to hook you up with a package.

I just got my ticket from here for 350k (including all taxes and fees, 260 before) round trip at the end of April. I'm excited as I've planned three other trips and because of unfortunate circumstances my plans fell throuhg.
Anyways check this place out, it is the cheapest I found. The catch though is there is a layover in Taiwan.
