Lol. If you can't work out how to fly don't do it. Just stay home. Do your environmental bit

Buy direct from the airline. Anyone who uses an agent is a fool. They aren’t cheaper. Oh I am just waiting for the BS responses from people who fly once a decade

@Peter *******
ha ha! I fly several times a month and almost always use an agent. They’re a lot quicker and more convenient. Now I’m waiting for the BS responses from people who think everyone’s needs are exactly like their own.Christopher ******

not everyone has money to fly directly.Peter ********
@Christopher *****
4334b. Round trip. It’s easy to BS me. But not on air fares. If this is expensive then that person has issues.

These flights are fine for a border bounce but not for a Visa run as you will not get a Visa issued the same day

Yes! you read it correctly.. 'plan tickets'... are you too dumb to realise it was a speling error? (btw - you can now have a go at my misspelling of 'speling' now.. )Christopher ******

@Andreas ********

@Peter *******
you hit the nail on the head, spot on! 😎Peter ********
@Christopher *****
or one could fly to Singapore and rent a taxi to Nong Khai. Why not fly to Viantiane???? Advice on this forum is weird.

Use Google flights to be able to search all the airlines and then book direct using the link they provide.

I think I see why you want to go that way My experience of going to Thailand for 10 years is that Netflights are good -They were owned by Thomas Cook /Now a Dubai invest company . I have found the company pretty good , Hence returning to them with my custom .So there are good alternative choices out there .Andreas *********
@Ivan ********
and if your flight is ever delayed or cancelled - Good Luck in getting your money back from BallyBullyHoo dot comIvan *********
I have had one delay /missed connection in 10 years with Quatar airlines in Doha - You are scare mongering I think.International air travel is very easy ( But like Life not perfect)
Philip ***********
Buying such tickets are really risky business I hope you find trustworthy website but should consider asking legal advice first

Orbitz

Jesus, are we serious here. You think there are websites set up which will sell you a flight which doesn't exist. And you have 100 travel agents very close to you. Wow.
David ***********
Try Vietjet
Bill *********
@David **********
DO NOT use vietjet. They cancel flights too much and won't refund your money. Had to go to police to get our money backDavid ***********
@Bill ********
thanks. I must say I use them fairly regularly without trouble. To be fair, since Covid no airlines are refunding without a fight and big delays. I had the same with Air Asia and Malaysia Airways but not Vietjet. I suspect theyre all as bad as each other
