Can my Thai girlfriend extend her 6-month visa in the UK or does she need to return to Thailand?

Andy **********

No she has to go back to thailand , & start the u.k. visa process again. I think she can do a 1 ,2 ,5 or 10 year holiday visa to visit the u.k.

This is what my thai wife has to do.

Why are flight prices to Thailand so high right now?

Andy **********

I google search school holidays , & fly in term time , usually cheaper . Plus if you do a stop over ,its cheaper as less tax ( departure only ). So try a quick stop in europe or the middle east.
