I often wonder about these airlines. A return trip to or from the country of the airline normally meets with poor value, but throw in a "foreign" destination (I'm assuming the BKK stop will be classed as "a stopover" and the bargains appear. I suffer the same with Emirates when flying to or from Dubai. Case in point, my current return from Glasgow to BKK with them is ￡1 more than the last Glasgow to Dubai return I did with them. (Same flights are used) The subsequent single from GLA to Dubai is nearly the same amount as the return!!

My experience with Thai, and I have flown a lot with them, is that the bargains have dried up and you need to jump in quick if you see one. It is a year since I was on a flight due to the greatly increased fares.

From the UK Thai usually has a good fare of around £475 to £500 return, thats why Ithought their fare from London to Vietnam with a Bangkok stop was rather good at £549. If you buy a London to Bangkok ticket at £475 you would then have to pay around £90 for the Bangkok to Vietnam retun sector.

That does seem a very good fare to be honest. Do thai still allow 30kg on the LHR-BKK route?.

Indeed they do on the 1230PM depart A380. Not sure about their new later flight on a 777 though
