Need a suggestion for a * Alliance flight from BKK
Hi,
we have 3 days of spare time and would go somewhere starting from BKK.
the best would be a location which is fare away
and is very cheap.
i looked for KUL at the LH rate around 160USD rt but i dont know in which booking class this will be.
are there any cheap deals out, which will earn full mileage?

from BKK, I've done BOS and SFO. Sometimes NRT has promotions on.
Also on SQ to NYC, sometimes a good fare.
No special deals come to mind... i'll think more on it.

They show these fares (base, exclusive of taxes & fees, I think, but round trip), in Thai Baht:
Germany 35,500
Europe 35,500
Jakarta 7,525
Ho Chi Minh 7,200
Kuala Lumpur 5,050
BKK-NRT-BKK on UA is ~ $660 USD all in, no min. stay, in Q outbound/H return for 5,774 miles.
BKK-MUC-BKK on LH is ~ $1,000 USD all in, no min. stay, in H class, for 10,902 miles.
The cheapest flights on TG, SQ, NH, SK and even LH all seem to result in reduced (or even zero) mileage accrual.

Try SIN on SK or SQ. The competetion is very hight on the BKK-SIN route and you will find plenty of good rates. SK to SIN in C should be around THB 10.000, but perhabs this promotion is over.

I am wondering where you (derpelikan) get the 3000 miles from for BKK-KUL flights? Business class?
