BKK to SIN

I will be flying from BKK to SIN can anyone recommend which airline is a better carrier?

I have:

Tiger Airways
Jetstar Asia
Myanmar Airlines
ATA

I checked with United and don't see any star alliance between that route.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Can't imagine United/UA.bomb is any good if it isn't showing any flights between the home ports of two *A carriers. It's almost like SQ saying there aren't any *A flights between IAD and FRA (or maybe SQ would so you'd fly via SIN).

UA will show award flights but not show anything when looking to pay $$ for tix.

I used Air Asia for that trip (in reverse) twice last year, and was extremely pleased with both the price and the service. Brand spanking new planes didn't hurt either. TG and SQ were triple the price when I booked and not worth it for me for the *A miles.

Scoot is another option.

Jetstar is usually the cheapest, especially if you can use one of the non-credit card options, as you'll save the booking fee. (Which you can't get around on Tiger or Scoot, [but can on Air Asia])

I second Air Asia. They are a good LCC with newer planes. The only thing to consider is that they fly out of Don Mueang (DMK) not Suvarnabhumi (BKK).

I vote Singapore Airlines. Non-stop between BKK and SIN and it is part of Star Alliance. It covers all the requirements you were looking for.


Air Asia does not fly from BKK
