BKK -> Bejing Travel Deals?

[Dboy]

Would like to get a recommendation on a travel agent in Pattaya who could assist me in obtaining a cheap r/t ticket to Beijing. Already have Visa. Thanks

there simply are not any-but then many posters here do not really realize what cheap is. Its often more wise to tell what you are willing to spend or quote what they have offered you and ask if that is OK or can be bettered. or simply try out a mainstream forum like thaivisa and its links.
Direct flights (from Swampy of course) only by TG and some Chinese-prob. AirCHina, check amadeus.net
If you want to save money-and spend more time travelling: fly cheap-cheap on AirAsia to whatever you can find (Shenzhen, Guangzhou), maybe even macao-but that needs and additional bus into mainland
then use any of the 3 well-known Chinese pricebuster-bookingsites: zuji, ctrip or elong (try out-not al are willing to take foreign cred-cards).
and DO take at least 3 hours between arr. and dep. for passing imigration etc.
Even more time consuming, but potentially lower cost:
Air Asia to KUL, then AirAsiaXL to Tienjin-then their bus to BJ.
A Q about tr-agents: all can do, there prices will be only 100/200 bt. different, no need at all to walk over town for that.
BJ is ICY cold in winter-nasty winds direct fro the Northpole and Siberia. Starts from around 1/112. Week after 1/10=now on, is golden holiday week-avoid that.

A friend used Egypt Air from BKK to PEK (Beijing).
Lowest fares at that time - about 2 years ago...
Egypt Air flies nonstop from BKK to PEK as a continuation
of flight from Cairo to BKK to PEK...then return PEK-BKK-Cairo.

The travel agency next to AuBuerre Restaurant - west side of Tuk Com- Pattaya...
is owned by two gay fellas. Very professional and will be glad to assist you in
finding the lowest price tix to PEK.

Also...Looked on Expedia and they are showing a nonstop flight BKK-PEK route
on Hainan Airlines for $478.00.
