Default Tokyo to Bangkok

Hi all,

I've been searching for flights from Tokyo to Bangkok recently and am a little stupefied by the prices ($900 to 1400 US). So I'm begining to look into plan b. Any suggestions? I have plenty of time, just not enough money to fly. Maybe take a ferry to a cheaper origin point? Idk.

Thanks in advance,

-Mike

Take any transportation to the nearest East or South East country and fly from there. Japan is expensive, not China or Vietnam, even Malaysia.

My flight from Hanoi to Bangkok costed around $300.

Or go for the long journey, take the train/bus through SE Asia until Thailand. :D But you'll need a couple of visas to do this.

Thx...I found an awesome agent out of San Francisco (Air Brokers Intl.) they booked me direct from Fukouka to Bangkok for 526.00 usd. Half off every other source I used.

Thx again...
