Bangkok to Hobart

[Lorri]

Hi I have to fly back from Thailand at the start of January, just not sure on which day yet. Any ideas on the best way to do this? Having a op done over there so return date isn’t set yet.

What are you trying to achieve - quickest route, best price, best airline in xx_ cabin? Need more info so we can provide advice

If you really have no idea when you’ll be able to come back, the obvious choice is a fully flexible ticket, with no change fees. But that could be quite expensive!

It you have a ‘rough’ idea, but not an exact date, you could buy a more restrictive ticket, but give yourself a week’s buffer. If you’re recovered earlier than expected, just spend the few days having a holiday.

Looking for low cost really, but don’t mind paying a bit more. I don’t know whether to book something soon or wait a bit and see if any sales come up. I have traveled with Singapore air and have 25000 points and velocity points about the same.
I guess just worried that the longer I leave it will the prices go up and up? Leaving Bangkok and fling to KL or Singapore or elsewhere then main flight from there would be ok, just so undecided at the moment.

Scoot might be an option - I think can be booked with KrisFlyer miles and is a good low cost product, even if you want to go revenue, which at short notice might be what you are left with.

Thailand to Australia in January can be tough. Even by early January many people are returning after a week or so in Thailand and the planes are full.
