Can anyone advise if there is a way of reducing the cost of $419 (one-way) from Bangkok to Hanoi? I have checked several sites, but so far I was able to find only this outrageous fare offered by Thai Airline. many thanks, Olya

Hi I did a bit of research and all I found was that supposedly Air France can take you from Bangkok to Hanoi.It says on this site I found that its $287 Round Trip...
This is where I saw it: http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll
So maybe try it out.
Or go to the official website of Air France.
Hope you find what your after,
Have a good time :)

You can check flights here on VT. At the top of the page, click on "Book Travel". On the new page, click "Flights". You will have access to the listed sites without having to visit them individually. It should save you a bit of time, if not money as well. If your travel dates have some flexibility, there are times you can save some cash just by making adjustments there. Gary

Obviously it depends on your dates but I would say that AirAsia will have the cheapest flights. I just checked for 7th July and they have a flight for about US $40
