Thailand and Laos

What kind of trip am I going on?

This trip is with Intrepid Travel https://www.intrepidtravel.com/ca/laos/thailand-laos-adventure-166921 It’s called an “adventure” so I think it will be fun!

How will I get there?

My flights take me from Regina to Vancouver, then straight to Bangkok.

I paid $177 for my flights, using aeroplan points earned from a TD aeroplan visa infinite credit card welcome bonus. Two nights before the tour in a nice hotel were booked using TD points from a TD platinum travel credit card. Two night after the tour in a very nice hotel were booked using Marriott Bonvoy points from a Marriott Bonvoy business credit card ($150 annual fee).

I booked upgraded seating for most of the flights, but there was nothing available for the 16 hr 25 min Vancouver to Bangkok flight. I spent about $200 on a little more leg room on the other flights, and I think it will be worth it. But not for that one, ranking right up there as one of the longest flights in the world….!

Let me know if you want more info on how I get flights so cheap!
