You will arrive at Bangkok’s new Suvarnabhumi Airport where you will then be able to see what a beautiful destination Bangkok really is. A few of the more popular airlines that fly to Suvarnabhumi Airport include Emirates, Qantas and British Airways. The airport is located around 20 miles east of the city centre. You will usually be able to find buses and taxis parked outside of the airport waiting to pick passengers up. We recommended that you book your taxi from a local taxi rank as the taxis outside of the airport are usually a fixed price and can often be expensive.

Many of the tourists that travel here year after year just come to visit some of the wonderful country attractions such as:

• Wat Pho
  Grand Place
  Designer Clothing Shops
  Markets
  Thai Boxing and much more…

There is also some fantastic night time entertainment in the local pubs and clubs. Also located around the city is many different types of restaurants so you will defiantly find something to suite your taste buds here in Bangkok.

Finding affordable or better yet cheap flights to Bangkok might seem like a pretty simple task. With literally hundreds of ways to book flights available online; the ability to find a cheap flight to Bangkok is easier than ever.

Booking a hotel along with your flight can save you even more. If you find a cheap flight to Bangkok and hotel accommodations you will have more to spend on attractions and food. On more than one internet site there is a combo package available that includes a cheap flight to Bangkok from London Heathrow Airport and a hotel, called Sathorn Grace Serviced that is in Bangkok, for the cheap price of £568.71 and that includes the taxes. You can some times even find great deals on cheap flights to Bangkok in local newspapers. Of course you could always try to book a cheap flight to Bangkok through a travel agent but they tend to be on the higher end of the spectrum.

The first thing you need to know is when Bangkok’s prime seasons are. Travel seasons are the time of the year that is hot for tourists and not so hot on the prices of airfare. Flights do seem to be cheaper to Bangkok during the monsoon season which is most summer months from July to November. The busier times for tourist, or what is called peak season, is during the months of February and March. The weather is absolutely gorgeous during these months. The price of tickets also goes up during the good weather months. Many places quote a cheap flight to Bangkok, round trip from Heathrow Airport in London, at £616.39 and that includes all taxes and fees. During the busy seasons the airports tend to get crowded as well. You should plan accordingly and arrive at the airport even sooner if you travel during these peak seasons.
When researching different sites for a cheap flight to Bangkok knowing some of what type of site you are looking at might help. Aggregators are sites that check airfares for several different airlines. They usually do not charge you any fee for doing this. Traditional booking sites also check multiple websites for the best rates but will charge you a fee for doing so. They also process the sale for the airline and keep their fee from that.

Try to stay with airlines that you know have a good reputation. Travelling is scary these days and you will find more comfort in your flight if you trust your carrier. Some times even the choice of airports will make a difference in the cost of your flight. Some smaller airports may be cheaper than the larger ones so when placing your information in the search engines play with the departure airport a bit to see if you can find a cheaper price to Bangkok that way.

If you are one of those travellers that has a pet bringing them with you may be an option. You can still find a cheap flight to Bangkok and have your little friend tucked away in his or her little riding carrier in the cargo hold of the plane.

Booking flights early is another way to get a cheap flight to Bangkok. In some places if you book your flight at least 30 days in advance, you can save a hundred or maybe even two hundred off the original price. Remember to always pay for your cheap flight to Bangkok with your credit card. This will give you proof of your purchase just in case anything were to happen. Also you can use the ticket number printed on your credit card statement if you lose your ticket at some point.

The Airlines own websites are a great place to look and compare the prices of other sites you find. The airlines will sometimes run unpublished cheap flights on their sites as well.

If you are lucky enough to get direct flights to Bangkok from the UK it can take between 11 and 13 hours. Cheaper flights have layovers and can make a flight several hours longer.

The cheapest flight I found that is going from London’s Heathrow Airport and arriving at the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok has a lay over of 20 hours in a Moscow Airport. The flight itself was £202.50 per person and is £249.90 in tax per person. This is not a huge cost but who wants to sit in an airport for 20 hours while you wait for the connecting flight. If you happen to have that huge of a layover you could go out and explore the surrounding area and see parts of the world that you haven’t before. Just make sure you do not wander off too far. There are other cheap flights to Bangkok listed that do not require that long of a wait. With the flight that you do end up choosing make sure to purchase insurance for it. The insurance will be at least 20 to 30% of the ticket price. If the flight gets cancelled and you do not have the insurance you will lose all of your money that you spent on the cheap tickets.

Arriving to the airport early is always recommended as is having your passport and ticket information in hand; it will make your wait less annoying when going through the terminal. The suggested time to go to the airport, for long flights, is around 3 hours early. After checking your luggage and hand luggage in you will need to go through the security check. The earlier you get this out of the way, the more relaxed you will be before having to board the plane. You can also check out some of the little shops and restaurants before you get on your long flight.

Heathrow has 5 different terminals from which planes leave. You can find all kinds of information on Heathrow Airport at http://www.heathrow-airport-guide.co.uk/. The terminal that you will use is terminal 3. Heathrow is the most used airport in the world so be prepared for the numerous amounts of people when you arrive. When you are in the right terminal find the departure monitors. The monitors will show you what area you need to be in for luggage check-in. You will want to keep your luggage safe by putting locks on them and be sure to put everything into the check in luggage that is not absolutely necessary on the flight. You will have a shorter wait at the security check if you keep your carry on to a minimum. There is also a limit on size and weight of anything that you take on board. Be sure to put all of your metal items like jewellery, cell phones and loose change into your carry on before going to the security check point. This will also help to speed up that process.
If you decide to take a laptop as a carry on it will need to be removed from your bag at Heathrow Airport and screened separately. The laptop bag is considered as your one item that is allowed in the cabin. You will want to be sure and not take any items on board that are considered by the airport as dangerous. The item will be confiscated and you will not get it back nor be compensated for the items.

Please be sure to watch your luggage in the terminals. It is easy for you to be at one of the shops and a thief grabs your bags while your back is to them. Thieves love hand luggage, they think the better things are kept in them, so keep this at your side at all times.

The boarding of international flights usually starts around 45 minutes before departure. Even on the cheap flights to Bangkok you will be offered drinks and snacks before the plane leaves the ground. Movies will also be played during your long flight and there are always plenty of magazines to read for the journey. At the shortest time, 11 hours, it is still an awful long time to sit in one place so be sure you wear comfortable clothes for the long ride.

Suvarnabhumi Airport was opened on the September 26th in 2006 so it is quite new. It was built so that it has a nice western feel to it. Upon arriving at your destination of Suvarnabhumi Airport (terminal map here http://www.bangkokairportonline.com/node/33) you will need to go through the customs security there and may take a little bit of time to get through. Then it is off to claim your baggage and head to your hotel that you either got included in your cheap package deal to Bangkok or one that you found on your own.

When you arrive in Bangkok be sure to have a list of all of the sights you would like to see. This beautiful city is packed full of tourist hot spots and eye catching architecture. Be sure to bring along your camera to catch the breath taking Grand Palace that had been built in 1782. There are even a few "floating" markets in Bangkok and you can purchase some of the local treats from the little boats for a pretty cheap price.
