Phuket flights
Phuket is the biggest island in Thailand and seventy percent of it is covered by forests. With muddy beaches to the east, a few sandy beaches to the west, a mountainous north, and a popular spot for viewing the sunset at its southernmost tip, the island has a very individual topography. Most visitors spend their time on the blissful beaches, but there is also the Phuket Fantesea show at Kamala Beach and a glorious Buddhist temple, Wat Chalong, to the south of the island. Other activities include elephant riding and golf. The island is the departure point for ferries to the Phi Phi islands.
Phuket's high season is generally considered to be from November to May, although it is hot and humid all year round, thus flights will be more expensive at these times. Cheap flights to Phuket, when available, can be sourced via price comparison, and are most likely to be found for the monsoon season, when flight prices may drop a little, even though it is still fine and cloudless most mornings and afternoons. Phuket flights, as with any flight to Thailand, are susceptible to heavy booking and thus should be reconfirmed at least once. Flights to Phuket should be booked as far in advance as possible, especially if a cheap flight is sought. Don't forget occasional charters can also be available in the winter months from the UK.
