    Found return flights from Dublin to bangkok in January for 200 euro with etihad. Seems like it's too good to be true . Afraid to book in case it's a scam

    It does happen sometimes - several posted on Bargain Alerts and on sites such as Holiday Pirates.

    Error fares - often they are honoured but it is a risk to book accommodation until flight is confirmed.

    Have you checked the Etihad site to see what the same flights are priced at there.

    Post up the site and people here will validate it for you - how did you get the flights offer is also a good clue whether or not this is likely to be valid

    Do you want to fly to bangkok one-way in January?
    Did your search for flights from a reputable airline or agent find a flight for only €200?
    Is it still available?
    Then book it.

    Fyi, i went on skyscanner and saw ethiad flights for eur205.. i followed the link and the message on the ethiad page said the flight wasn't available. Google shows ethiad flights cost over eur550 during January. So it seems likely it's an error.

    If you are serious about getting bargains you really need to be quick, and definitely don't post about them on message boards.

    If something sounds to good to be true it usually is
