Bangkok has always been the place to go for shopping. If you love buying things from blogshops, you'll realise that most blogshops get their products from Thailand. You can find almost everything that are sold on blogshop at Bangkok's Platinum Mall less than half the price. Everything in Bangkok is just cheap cheap cheap.
I made a booking for a 6 day 5 nights trip to Bangkok and I must say it is one of the cheapest flight + hotel package. My flight was on AirAsia and the hotel in Bangkok is Amari Watergate (5 star hotel) booked on Expedia.com.sg. The service at Amari Watergate is one of the best I have experienced, everyone from the front desk to house keeping are friendly and helpful.
So here's the break down of the cost for 2 person:
- Hotel + Flight: $677.01
(breakdown given by Expedia ($290 for flight + $387.01 hotel)
Per night in hotel: $77.40
- Add ons for AirAsia: $68
(2 x 15kg departure + 2 x 20kg return + pick a seat for both departure and return)
- NTUC Travel Insurance: $52
Total Price: $797.01
Total Price Per Pax: $398.51
My flight details on AirAsia:
Departure - FD3502 Singapore to Bangkok (10:55am to 12:15pm)
Return - FD2509 Bangkok to Singapore (6:30pm to 9.40pm)
