Reader question: Paying a lot extra for an upgrade of your flight ticket to Bangkok, is that normal?
Friends of ours are coming to Thailand on February 2nd and flying with EVA Air. The more spacious seats in the Elite class were already booked, but they decided to fly business class.
Reader question: Flying with KLM or China Air
We intend to plan a trip from the Netherlands to Bangkok and have the choice between a direct flight with China Airlines or a direct flight with KLM. The price difference is 150 euros (KLM more expensive), but I do not know China Air, so I have my doubts about this.
I often read that booking a flight ticket to Thailand directly through the airline's site is cheaper than booking through a broker such as expedia, cheaptickets, budgetair and so on. Because such online travel agencies always add a commission. But is this also correct?
Vara's Kassa: Be careful with foreign booking sites!
You can book a trip or holiday to Thailand in the Netherlands, but it is also possible at a foreign website. Sometimes that is even cheaper or is there a catch? Vara's Kassa investigated 23 domestic and foreign booking sites. Do you still pay booking fees everywhere, do you really need all those insurances and is the discount you get a real discount?
Reader question: Is there a website in Thailand where you can book cheap airline tickets to the Netherlands?
Two more weeks of work and I can travel back to Thailand, so the countdown has begun. Also on the schedule is a visit to the Dutch embassy to arrange my girlfriend's visa.
I only see offers from Amsterdam to Phuket. I Google, but I hardly get any offers from Phuket to the Netherlands.
I want to go to two destinations for two weeks next year. To the Philippines and to Thailand one after the other. I just have no idea how best to approach this.
Reader question: Does anyone have experience booking Thailand flight tickets through Gate1?
I would like to know if there are readers who have experience booking airline tickets to Thailand via Gate1? They offer very cheap tickets that you can't even book with the airline or anywhere else.

Suppose you want to fly to Thailand at short notice, for example next week. Is there still such a thing as a last minute flight at an acceptable rate? This used to be possible with airberlin.
Reader question: Do we have to arrange flight tickets Phuket – Bangkok in advance or on the spot?
After we, a family with 5 children, had rented a house in Hua Hin for three weeks last year and had a great time, we decided to go to Thailand again this year for three weeks.

Anyone who expects to be able to book extra cheap airline tickets to, for example, Bangkok because of the low oil price will be disappointed. It will be months before this advantage is passed on to consumers.
We are looking for tickets for our (family) trip to Thailand. Your blog states that research shows that the best period to book is 108 or 54 days in advance. But we heard from others about 9 months in advance (= now).
Reader question: Where can I buy cheap airline tickets to Thailand?
We have had to cancel our trip to Thailand and are not going until June next year. Does anyone know a site where we can buy our tickets cheaply with a hotel in Bangkok for the first three nights?
In February next year I will be going to Thailand for three months. There are several cheaper flights to book, but… these flights are only valid for a stay of 1 and/or 2 months.
Reader question: Flying from Bangkok to Chang Rai, do I have to book the tickets already?
According to my information, it is November 6 Loi Krathong. We arrive in Bangkok on November 7 and want to fly to Chang Rai on November 9. I would like to know if this weekend has an effect on crowds on this flight route?
