It'll be a ball ache mate but you're probably best booking everything individually and make sure you get all your connections right

Whereabouts in Perth? Fremantle? Perth is lush. I loved it there. Mind you, we were in a hotel joined to a 24 hour casino. Could get a pint any time of day.

Tunny is correct. Will be a bit of a faff but for multi destination trips I wouldn't trust anyone but myself anyway. Just be wary of what your travel insurance does and does not cover cos if its not a package, you won't be backed up with ABTA or ATOL so if something does go the way of the pear, it can leave you in a pickle

I've done it when having to fly around the states where family and friends are spread out. As long as flights aren't cancelled or delayed it will be fine, but it's shit to rectify if you miss a connection cos even if you've got plenty of funds, it can be much more than you might want to pay to rebook to get where and when you need to be. Then comes the monumental faff of submitting claims, but that's only in the event of something not going to plan. Odds are in your favour as long as you don't book last flights of the day out anywhere

We rarely book a package anymore. Book all our flights and dig separate.
Doing it this way can make you big savings.

Flight from UK to Oz. Plenty going daily.

Flight from Oz to Thailand. I would assume there are shitloads. Along with Bali, it's probably the most visited vacation spot for them.

Flight from Thailand to UK. Plenty going daily.

Lids when we last did a multi centre in SEA, we did some flights with Air Asia.
It's the areas version of EasyJet and Ryanair. Budget flights. I'm sure they fly to and from Oz.

Might be worth a look.

Not my field chief but I think the lads are probably right.
In any case I'm sure you'll get it sorted - sounds like a cracking trip.

Using an operator will cost you a fortune over what you can easily do yourself with an afternoon's graft Lids, you're just paying a commission for a relatively easy task. I wouldn't give em my hard earned for zero extra benefit, protection or even just peace of mind

Unless you just can't be arsed which is fair enough

Lids, I don't know if this should go on this thread or the true saying thread, but...'Don't be a fool, wrap yer tool' is probably decent advice for you heading over there 🤠

Use your credit card to book em too. You'll at least get your money back if they fuck you over with the flight's.
Enjoy Lad 🍺

Johnny Thunder · August 26, 2023, 01:57:38 PM

I've spotted a couple of one way flights from LHR Lids.
11th December, two stops Athens and Singapore before Perth, 485 notes.
Total flight time just over 25 hours.

They do jump up a bit if you want one stop like.

Did Pattaya ever recover after Covid?
