Just wondering how it all worked out.
I've just purchased a Thai Lion Air ticket on expedia.co.th, from DMK to CMB, as the timing was the most convenient and the price was right.
It would be nice to select seats and pay for luggage in advance, but I don't seem to be able to do this online (I live in Australia). Just wondering if there's anything more I can do before arriving in Thailand (at BKK).
Pity I hadn't see this thread or this article
