It’s been a few months since we’ve decided to take our Round The World trip. We’ve been thinking about the places we want to visit, selling a few things we didn’t really need and did some research on the gear we’re going to bring along. Nothing was really set in stone but as of today the very first part of our trip is.

Thailand seemed as good a place as any to start our journey so we looked into the airline prices and found that Connections seemed to be offering the best deals for flights from Brussels to  Bangkok.

The cheapest flights were offered on Wednesdays and Saturdays with Ukraine International Airlines. Probably not the best carrier around but the schedule is nice and we couldn’t find any other airline that came close to the €265 ticket price (per person, including fees).

It was actually quite exciting to book the flight and finally have something specific to look forward and count down to. The current details of our flight:
