GARUDA

[gerald 0]

HI looking at the idea of my 2nd trip, i made a seach on www.expedia.co.uk and found an airline i have not seen before "GARUDA" ... Fly non-stop, London (gatwick) to Bangkok Sat 02 Oct  return Mon 14 Oct... £398.00 plus tax... total £440.36.. and that's non-stop.                        High season fly Sat 21 Dec and return 13 Jan ... £509.00 plus tax.... total £551.36

Gerard,

Garuda is the Indonesian national airline and after Bangkok the plane goes on to Bali.

It's a very good fare but their timekeeping leaves a little to be desired but if you're not in a rush it's not so important.

 

Regards,

Gerald it may be worth you looking at www.dialaflight.com it offers the same flight 2/10-14/10 with garuda for £408 inc tax it also quotes air lanka £402 turkish £404 but to be honest if they were 1/2 this price i would`nt touch either.Other good deals they have are Crossair £452 Gulf £457.

I hope this is of help to you.

Gerard,

The best advice I can give you is if you're thinking of travelling to LOS regularly is to join the Thai Airways Royal Orchid Plus frequent flyer club . Then when you fly to LOs with Thai, Lufthansa, SAS, Austrian/Lauda, Singapore you get the miles which works out at fly 6 times and the 7th is free plus they have a special offer at the moment to upgrade to business class for an extra £250 each way.

 

Regards,

 

Richard.

Gerald ,

 

I'm in Pattaya from 6th - 27th June . How much did you pay for your flights ? I paid £551 inc tax and £61 for insurance . I booked through www.dialaflight.com  and am flying with Lufthansa , apparently a very good airline according to my sister who was a travel agent for 8 years . The guy I booked with did not recommend Air Lanka as it involves a 6 hour stopover in Colombo , which isn't the safest of airports .

 

I could have got an Eva Air flight for the same money but would've had to stay overnight in London coming back as I was arriving in too late for the last connecting flight to Belfast . I have since heard that there is now a later shuttle flight and I could have flown with Eva . Maybe next time !
