Pacific Blue Launches Perth - Phuket Flights

The new route is Virgin Blue Airlines Group’s first foray into the Thailand market, with the new Pacific Blue flights to provide West Australian travellers with another choice of international destination alongside the airline’s existing flights from Perth to Bali.

The weekly flight is already proving a hit with WA based holiday-makers who have been quick to book flights and take advantage of the special fares.

Phuket rated highly as a preferred destination in customer surveys, due to Thailand being within comfortable flying distance (six and a half hours from Perth), its affordability in terms of entertainment, massages, shopping, delicious dining, vibrant nightlife, the wide range of accommodation to suit all budgets and the cultural experience it offers visitors.
