Don’t use booking, they were blacklisted during corona, because of their bad business style towards the hotels.

For hotels, recommend using Agoda. I have a Thai friend who works support for Agoda working from his laptop at the gym I go to. See him most days as I bring my laptop also for play. So for me if I have an agoda question I can ask support in person. But if you want private condo instead for longer length of stay for cheaper try Airbnb

It depends on your destination, sometimes you don't have a choice of airlines. However, all the cheap carriers are basically the same for the most part. Try using agoda to book your hotels and use grab/bolt for taxi.

Be aware to check on the baggage rules. Some airlines flights are cheap but when you check in they add for baggage which can be more than if you bought a more expensive ticket. Ask me how I know…. Ha ha ha

Leave AirAsia, the gangsters of the air...They sell tickets. Then they cancel the flight. Then if ever see your money again you will have to battle to get it or sunk into frustration and give up...

Very uncool and fraudulent ways to deal with customers and THEIR MONEY....
