Peak season
When starting to compare flights to Bangkok, it is useful to know that its busiest months are between November and March. During this time, temperatures reach as high as 31°C and rainfall is at its lowest. Finding cheap flights to Bangkok during this period can be challenging, so booking ahead is essential. Festivals that attract international crowds to the city during peak season include Chinese New Year and the candlelit festival of Loy Krathong.
Off season
Bangkok’s “off-season,” occurs from May to October and is the period during which the city experiences the most rainfall. The cheapest flights to Bangkok are usually available during this period as well as more cost-effective accommodation and travel packages. A range of indoor activities await tourists, including shopping and visiting the city’s auspicious temples.

I'm a long time SQ patron. For good reason. Had a similar trip last year and took another airline (at that time, price was the main factor). This time I took SQ as they had really good rates. No comparison. Dependable, reliable service and excellent aircraft. No issue with my special checked in item (a guitar that had to be handled differently) on my way to my destination (not this flight). In the previous mentioned other airline, they misplace my luggage upon arrival. After spending about an hour (with no effective help from that airline's agent), I managed to find it at another belt!
