Delta – $1,122: Washington D.C. – Bangkok, Thailand. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

Bangkok offers cheap access to the rest of Thailand and Southeast Asia. Use skyscanner.net to search for low cost carrier options or fly the very good regional airline, Bangkok Air. If the route is served by Bangkok Air and you have Starwood points, you can transfer Starwood points to JAL’s program to redeem. Routes start as low as 5,000 points roundtrip for the rest of the year — so a roundtrip to Siem Reap for Angkor Wat can be done for 5,000 points and just taxes.
