TLDR : Answer Summary

The return airfare to Boracay from Bangkok has increased significantly since the pandemic, with current prices around 18,000 baht compared to approximately 8,000 baht pre-COVID. This rise is attributed to the reduced number of flights from discount airlines, as many are not operating currently, and the availability of direct international carriers has diminished.
