I’m planning a trip to Bangkok, Thailand this December. I’ve been checking out online travel sites for cheap airfare. The best deal I’ve found is on Asiana airlines… the catch is that the flight leaves SFO at noon and arrives in Bangkok after midnight. On the return flight, there is a long layover in Seoul for nearly 10 hours.

Compared to the next best deal from China Airlines, it’s about 0 usd cheaper. With China air, my arrival time in Bangkok is around noon, and the layovers aren’t more than 2-3 hours for each travel segment.

Should I go with the cheap-o guys to save a few bucks? Also- should I buy my ticket ASAP? I know fuel prices are likely to head upwards in the near future.

Thanks!

I have used Priceline several times but usually do it several weeks in advance… Do you find better deals on priceline at the last min or a few weeks before travel? I am planning a trip to Honolulu at the end of Aug and just wondering when I would get the best deal on a 4 star hotel while bidding on Priceline. Thanks, C

Me and my husband are planning a trip, for the first time ever! We are quite surprised by the total price. We will be flying from NY to Bahamas in late August. We just want to know how much does everyone spend on their island vacations, just so we know if we should look for better deals or go with the one our travel agent is providing. (Btw 00 includes Flight+ Hotel for both of us, not per person).
