Why It’s a Deal A recent search on Kayak showed that the lowest round-trip airfare from Los Angeles to Bangkok starts from $972 with taxes for travel in late October (China Airlines). Add to that $135 per person, including tax, for three nights at Century Park Hotel, $56 for one night at Kantary Hotel, $48 for one night at Legendha Sukhothai Resort, $189 for two nights at Le Meridien Chiang Rai, $284 for three nights at Le Meridien Chiang Mai, and $36 for one night at Kantary House Bangkok, and you’d be paying $1,720 for just the airfare and accommodations. For $29 more than that, this package covers the flight; 11 nights’ hotel accommodations; daily breakfast and a dinner; all ground transfers, including sightseeing per itinerary in a modern, air-conditioned motor coach; the services of an English-speaking tour guide; and all taxes and fees.

More Additional excursions/activities are available for a fee, including a Mekong River cruise into Laos from $19 per person and a traditional Thai massage from $29 per person. Extend your stay in Bangkok from $35 per person per night at Century Park Hotel.
