Thanks Alex. Now if they will just start dropping fares in June/July, I'd be ready to roll. So far, fares seem to jump 40-50% in those months.

I already booked my round trip LAX to BKK with EVA for $672 for May and June. However, that special is gone. As for China Air, yes the fight is cheap. However, the seating is the worst of any airline I have ever flown. Terrible for anyone taller than 5'6. However, since CA is charging half of what Thai Air is charging, the $600 saving may be worth it. But Thai Air's seating is exceptional.

I have to agree with farang1...the "Premium" economy on Thai Air is running about $1600 right now (Lax to Bkk)...and it ROCKS...well worth the $400 bump from their $1200ish regular economy seat...FYI.

This means that the Thai Air Premium is over $900 more than China Air. That is nearly one month's worth of longtimes. In that case, I will go for CA, and live with the cramped conditions for a brief time. Also, CA leaves LAX at a better time, 3:10 in the afternoon, while Thai Air leaves at 11 P.M.

Eva's below a grand $996 (all in) Deluxe SFO-BKK for those who can leave the last day of the month 3/31. Best price in years. Didn't check LAX though. Go to HOT-E-FARES. Most fares in the $1100s for the next few months. wj
