Travelling to Thailand from U.S. June 2014-Flight question
 
Hey there!

My friend and I are traveling from the States this mid-June to Thailand.

I understand this is not necessarily 'high season' in Thailand and I am wondering how far in advance I should consider booking planes tickets? What I should consider a good price? Right now the tickets that would accommodate our travel dates are starting around $1650 and upwards. Should I consider this as a deal, or shall I wait until the date gets a little closer, or am I running the risk of prices going up even more?

I appreciate any advice you got!

Thanks!

that is high.. I live in boston and find prices are usually $1000-1450.

try Korean air, ANA, delta/united/American, finn, UAE carriers...

We would be flying out of Minneapolis (MSP)

so delta is the obvious, but I would look at what Chicago might offer with international airlines

If you fly out of Chicago try Cathay Pacific. They just started flying out of Chicago within the last year or so. We got an email the other day announcing a 30percent off deal. Did not look into it since we aren't going anywhere soon. They have a great schedule - we flew ORD-HKK-BKK about 10 days ago. Planes and service fab.

So...back to what I was getting at...what should I consider a good deal on flight? We will fly out of Msp no matter what.
