United – $883: Seattle – Bangkok, Thailand. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

Summer will be super hot in Thailand.

For those who only can vacation during the Summer and around Christmas, this is a good fare to Southeast Asia. Some itineraries will have sub-optimal number of connections (3), but for Summer travel, this is a good deal.
