Bloody airlines :-) I am not paying £418 (emirates) nor £1342 (BA) for one way to BK so going for Finnair £290. Unlike Emirates and BA, Finnair require proof of onward travel so question is, if I pay £25 for 60 tourist VISA so avoid need to proove onward travel is there any issue then with going to Savannakhet to get non O spouse visa?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion centers around the challenges of securing a flight to Thailand without paying high costs for a one-way ticket. The original poster considers purchasing a cheaper ticket from Finnair that requires proof of onward travel and suggests using a tourist visa for a minimal fee to bypass this requirement. Several comments explore the importance of onward travel proof, share personal experiences with various airlines regarding boarding requirements, and discuss the feasibility of obtaining a Non-O spouse visa in Savannakhet after entering Thailand. Most contributors agree that having a tourist visa should not hinder the process of applying for a Non-O visa, but there are varying opinions regarding airline policies on onward travel proof.
