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

 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.

 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

 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 .

 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
