This is # 7 of the Pattaya FAQ:

 

Q: When to book?

A: Today :sh

 

Seriously though, I would book as soon as you'r comfortable your plans are set. What you usually see is a gradually drying up of cheap seats as time goes by. Sometimes last minute deals are out there, but this is a bad time of year for that gamble.

 

Traveling Christmas or New Years Eve may help some. but not much. I flew out Christmas Day last year (planned on going to Phuket first, but thought it better to skip and go straight to Pattaya for some reason). Once I left the States it was as crowded as any other trip.

Tom will clarify, but usually a bunch of discounted seats open up about three months prior - not sure if the dynamic is the same for high high season.

 

If you are pondering FF mileage tickets, then as soon as they open - usually 270 days prior.
