Last Minute Airline Deals

[bostonT2]

Aloha,

I know this is super last minute but i want to go somewhere in thailand (not BKK) - phuket, krabi, koh samui...

any one know of a good travel site?

is it cheaper to fly to BKK (or phuket) then boat to krabi or Koh Samui or should i look for air all the way?

Any help/guidance is much appreciated. Oh btw, i'm looking for the mayday weekend ;-D

Hi, if you are flying to phuket, flights are plentiful, you can fly by budget air
1) https://booking.airasia.com/skylights/c ... lights.cgi
2) http://www.tigerairways.com/home/index.php

or you can fly by
3)http://www.silkair.com/mbe/en_UK/

Silkair operates more daily flights to phuket, so timing is more flexiable.

Flying to Koh Samui is a bit tricky, as far as i know, only bangkok airways provides direct flight from singapore to Koh Samui.

I usually check Tiger and Jetstar for last minute flight deals.

If you're flexible about where to go, and you're willing to fly a couple of days earlier or later than the rest of the crowd -- you can sometimes get good deals even on short notice.

For accommodations in Thailand, we've booked via Sawadee.com and they were pretty ok.
