I’ve found best prices on Priceline. I flew from Charlottesville to Atlanta to Amsterdam to BKK, r/t was $2000. Atlanta to BKK will be less…

Search Skyscanner. Southwest to lax. Lax to bkk. China Air or Eva Air. Buy DIRECTLY through airline NOT 3rd party. Van from bkk to Pattaya. Last round trip to bkk from Ohio was $1,300

No direct flights from US. Vancouver I believe the only North American City that has a direct flight. The flights go through Different countries depending on Airline. For me I always check flight times. Depending on the Airline between 25-35+ hours.
Delta Partners with Korean Air and go thru Seoul. Others use Tokyo, Dubai, and others.

Just 2 weeks ago I was in Pattaya together with my wife and son. We flew to Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok and booked a taxi in advance to bring us to our hotel in Pattaya. The taxi service we used is called 'Taxi Airport Bangkok'. It was 1,700.- THB for one way. The trip from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Pattaya is around 1 hour 20 minutes. And of course we also booked the trip from Pattaya back to Suvarnabhumi Airport one week later. Very good taxi service. Here is the link:

(but if you prefer you also can buy a bus ticket from Suvarnabhumi to Pattaya. The bus ticket counters are in the basement of the airport).Tiffannie *********

Travelocity is a good source but I book the ticket through the airlines direct. If anything goes wrong it’s impossible to rebook with Travelocity. You might want to consider the bus from BKK to Pattaya. The flight is 20 mins and not worth the money.

From Atl your best bet is to fly to NY, SFO, or LAX first and then take the cheapest airline from there. You will save considerably by flying out of a hub other then Atlanta.

The very cheapest way I found, is to buy a Phillipines to LA super save ticket about 6 months in advance - no kidding, I just checked recently approx. 400 round trip. This is to LA. I never go directly but take cheaper flights to LA and get a cheap one from there to where I want to go. Always saves money. Kayak.com is where I go for deals.

I like Monmondo, as it can handle "broken" flight segments, where you have short stays at intermediary stops. It's almost faster to get to Pattaya by way of Bangkok.

there was no plane to the airport for Pattaya which is quite far south, from Chiang Rai when I visited in May of '22, starting the day they ended the 1 day quarantine. I went up through Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai, over 10 days. I had to take a bus back down to Bangkok and then a mini-bus to Pattaya. I'd probably find a limo from BKK to Pattaya if I were doing that again.Reply to

Qatar from ATL to Doha on the way to BKK was full of (sorry to say) some of the nastiest people on the planet. When we arrived in Doha, we almost had to Wade through the mass of trash, dirty diapers, food containers and blankets, pillows and god knows what else… kids ran amok, and I’m sure the crew was mortified.Reply to

i agree but occasionally someone knows something. i wanted to fly to China. the price was about the same all over the internet. then someone told me to go direct to China air? woow, saved some money there. i agree with you but my wife likes to ask others...mostly friends. she found an airline with a ***
price promotion. i was shocked but the dates did not match my needs. it can happen by asking others.Reply to

When you search for flights, open an incognito tab or private tab first then start searching for flights.
Google flights and most booking agencies will use your cookies/search history to make the prices you see even higher because they know you may have searched it before, so it’s best to use an incognito/private tab so that there are no cookies or search history.

Constantly varies. Use the websites mentioned above and also momondo.com. they show graphically the best times to fly. I just returned to ATL 2 weeks ago. It was not cheap. The high season is almost over so you should see some better prices. Also some airlines do not show up on aggregator sites so search direct with the airlines too. And Pattaya does not have an airport so you will fly into BKK and take a taxi.
