Is that what it actually costs, 6666?

 

Or is there a multitude of tees, surcharges, and taxes making the actual fare 3 times bigger?

Air Asia is a Malaysian Airline i guess and Rs 6666 = 4200 Bhat, Amazing price. Almost a price of a LT.

 

I live in different part of India and Flight from my home town to near international airport + Thai Airways = 14000 Bhat for economy but business class almost 30K.

So it isn't so cheap for every one.

Not really that include all but these are promo fares and you need to get those fare almost 2-3 month in advance and may be regular fair would be 8000 Bhat max. That exclude food, drinks, preferred seat and some minor stuff which wouldn't cost that much. For two hour flight it's ok to travel.
