Another low-cost carrier is about to enter our already crowded skies, with Singapore Airlines offshoot Scoot to open a Bangkok-Singapore route on Jul 7. When we tried booking, a one-way ticket started from B990, exclusive of airport tax (B700 for Bangkok, B691 for Singapore) and baggage fees (B300). Those after a little more luxury can fly business class with ScootBiz: special introductory prices start from B4,370. It offers more legroom (96cm), 20kg baggage allowance, and the flexibility to change flight times and dates up to two days before departure. In more good news for budget globetrotters, Scoot is also set to unveil routes between Bangkok, Sydney and Tianjin. Visit www.flyscoot.com.
