Any Good Flight Deals on the Market?

Post by westerby » March 10, 2009, 4:56 pm

Anyone seen any good flight deals recently? I'm thinking about the UK - Thailand route but if there's any good Aus/NZ deals or Europe/North America then it might also be worth posting here.

Nice one. I had to get Mrs. Westers on a quick trip back home last month and Netflights offered us £558 for an Eva flight going the next day.

I just booked Vientiane - Hanoi - Paris - Vientiane for $1230 with Vientiane Airlines.

Turkish airlines offer this - Vientiane - Bkk - Istanbul - Frankfurt retun for $1280

A couple of days in Istanbul would certainly be nice.

Do you have the contact details for Vientiane Airlines?
I googled them, but couldn't find anything.
Do you have any idea what the cost might be: Vientiane-Hanoi-Vientiane?
Thanks.

All those £99 quid flights are sold out.
That's the hook gone.
I bet the seat pitch is nothing like the 34inchs you get on Thai. No 30 Kilos baggage allowance, and air miles on your Star Alliance card. Then the expense of getting from KL to Thailand. Or in most of our cases to Udon Thani.
