bangkok air discovery pass

[wrldtrvllr]

wondering if any members have used this before? i'm thinking of using it while i'm visiting thailand/laos/cambodia en-route to taiwan to start a DCIRC29. possible routing would be BKK-CNX-LPQ-REP-BKK

how easy was it to use the coupons? any trouble getting the flights you wanted? (i take it there is probably some quota on each flight available for these coupons - anyone know the booking class?) prices quoted on the website seem to indicate taxes not included (anyone know the state on fuel surcharges for bangkok air/lao airlines - these seem to be the more costly add-ons these days!)

thks!

Just returned from Asia using their airpass - worked well and no problems once we (finally) got the sectors confirmed (that was the difficult bit). Flew BKK - LPQ - BKK - USM - BKK. Ontime departures (most flights took off well before the advertised time so don't check in late). In LPQ they close checkin early so keep in mind that this is treated like an international flight when checking in. Meals, ice cream and wine offered three times BKK - LPQ vv. The airpass was good value for money and recommended in lieu of their costly return tickets!

thanks for the response G*.

where did you get the airpass from? i'm having trouble getting an agent to organise this for me - they either don't know, or they can't (because they go through wholesale consolidators!?) i'm based in sydney and a check on EF shows there aren't many "v" class seats left for the legs i want to take!! arghhh....
