Hi,
I am looking for a cheap flight on either Thai Airways (preferred) or Malaysian to Vientiane in December and returning in February.
Cheapest I can find is around $1650 return. A friend managed to score it for $1200 but it looks like that deal is now gone.
Cheers,

Last year I used Air Asia and it worked out rather cheap. Good luck.
How was Air Asia? We are traveling with a little baby so are reluctant to go on a budget airline. Want space, comfort and minimal delays!
Was okay the first time, but with the return upgrade from optiontown was the best flight I've ever had.
you could always travel on premium on airasia, about the same price but with flat beds :) and more comfort and value :)
thanks engmeng - will look into it.
The reason I did not go with airasia in the past was because there was a 24 hour stop over in KL. This would mean we would need to get our bags, go to an airport hotel (which then costs money), eat hotel meals, go back, do all the check in crap etc. All of this adds to the time and hassle.
Perhaps the situation with respect to flight times has changed - I will investigate.
Cheers,

The KL stop over can be either a pain or add value to your trip. I found spending AU$110 for a beautiful room in Traders Hotel opposite the towers (with an amazing view) a great way to celebrate the end of my trip.
Should have mentioned - departing Melbourne!
