I booked what I thought was a flight on Monday. BKK to Phuket. Booked with Thai Smile and they advertised a service whereby if you paid $4.40 through Trip .com they would hold the price for 6 days. So I did that, but when I went to pay for the 2 tickets today, found out that it was only a price hold not a ticket hold. THere were none left.The bastards!!!. As it turned out it was for the better. The two Thai Smile tickets worked out at $350.00AUD. Advertised price without all the add ons was $104.00!!!.

I was on a tight schedule so then had to search for flights that worked for me. Got them on Thai Air. Still cost $300.00. There were options with Viet Jet etc., but by the time you add bags and seat selection, they were more!.

I think charging for std seats is a con. Sure charge more for legroom etc., but include std seats at the going rate. No need to add that on. Can't see myself hanging from the wings!.

There's a neat trick you can use on Skyscanner to help get the best price, click the link (just under where it says flights) that shows you the daily price for the whole month.

As you can see the price varies wildly.
