Airline help please
 
I need to fly Hong Kong to Bangkok. Then Bangkok to Phuket .. Any suggestions as to which airline has the best fares.

some of the discount airlines may be of help like air asia....cathy pacific currently has some very low fares from HK to some locations...

There are no budget carrier as such on the HKG-BKK route but prices are already quite low on the route as son much competition. You can take Air asia from macao to BKK but I doubt you would save on flights direct from HKG. Amongst cheapest on the route are Ethiopian and Kenya Airways, for a daily flight with good service Gulf Air have good fares on the route and superb service. There are plenty of others too including Emirates, plus the 'regulars' like Thai, Cathay Pacific etc.
From BKK to Phuket there is Thai, Thai Air Asia, Bangkok Airways, One-2-Go, Phuket Air and from this month also Nok Air, you will probably find the Thai Air Asia and Nok Air sites good.

If you get a chance to shop by any Hong Kong travel agents, the price you usually got will be in the range of HK$1500 - $2500 for the HK-BKK trip. Cathay Pacific always have discounted tickets on their website, so it'll be good to check it out.

I dove with a bangkok air pilot 2 weeks ago in koh chang and he said that he is going to start flying the HG to BKK route with a brand new plane in the next few weeks so check them out!
