Thanks once again guys. There was a good deal going at Flight Centre at the moment and Best Flights to Phuket with accom. included. Was told that you can stop over in Bangkok, that was included in price but was also told that with Thai Air - a condition of their cheap flights is that you can only travel for a maximum of 35 days. Gonna go in to their web site and read the fine print! Would have been an ideal solution to our Phuket leg of our journey.
Cheers
