I saw this on SF and thought it might be useful to someone. I haven't seen this price ever on a direct flight to Thailand. the closest deal on here was an openjaw going from Rome for £400 2 years ago. 787 Dreamliner direct. Tried skyscanner and the best price was £420

Great price,but be warned that Phuket is the ar#e of the world.Full of scams and scammers.
If you want to pay the equivalent of £60 for a 2 mile taxi ride then this is the place for you.Be prepared to be beaten up if you look at someone the wrong way,also the so called `police`will not help you if you have a problem.
BTW i am married to a Thai so i hate having to tell people/friends to avoid this place like the plague,it has changed from a tropical paradise 10 years ago to what it is now.
Just google,jet ski scams or tuk tuk scams to get an idea of what to expect.

Think she was attracted to his sleeveless t-shirt number. Makes even your average man irresistible to the ladies.... err assuming she is a lady.

Then take a £60 return flight to Bangkok on thai aiways about 1 1/2 hour flight after you have explored Phuket for a day or read this thread for cheap deals and city hopping Thanks to blueskies (ex-travel expert) but I see my comments about your accolades have been removed from your thread. Am I close to getting suspended :man:

I was there 6 yrs and it was fine education/awareness so Google and lonely planet guide are your friends :wink: A few tried the taxi scam and 'the palace is closed today' scam but that war in Bangkok..... Never had an issue in phuket. Just have common sense, if something doesn't seem right then it probably isn't...... We had a great safe time

Was there last year and had a great time. None of that crap is true. All old google tales.

We are just back from patong and had an amazing holiday and can honestly say we didn't have a problem at all , things were a bit more expensive than we thought they would be but we weren't attacked robbed or scammed , our hotel was beautiful ( Amari ) and the staff couldn't have done enough for us .

£50 for 20kg baggage allowance. Otherwise just 5kg hand luggage. Good flight price though.
