I wasn't sure how to interpret the 1st or 2nd degree relative term. I just called JMB to check availability and asked about this; apparently I have to marry my cohabitating partner/girlfriend in order to book a ticket for her though in-laws would then qualify

Any reason why I cannot say she is my wife when making the booking? It is not very uncommon not to have the same name even as a married couple where I am from...

Also, it was estimated that the taxes for BKK-REP-BKK would be approximately USD50 pr person. Does this sound about right?
