Pattaya at 69,610 CZK: why BUY just fired
Of every destination we track for a family right now, only one has both enough history and a price sitting at its own floor: Pattaya.
Most weeks, no package actually clears the bar for BUY - either there isn't enough history yet, or the price hasn't reached its own floor. As of 2026-07-27, among the packages Voyscout tracks for a family (2 adults + 2 children), there is exactly one exception: Pattaya, Thailand.
A price at the floor of its own history
Prima Hotel Pattaya (Ex Prima Wongamat), 4 stars, breakfast board, 7 nights departing 6 October 2026, priced in the catalogue at 69,610 CZK for the family (17,402 CZK/pp). That's not just a low number - it's exactly the minimum of the last 20 days we've tracked this route; the median over the same window is 71,580 CZK. The price sits in the cheapest tenth (10th percentile) of its own history, and it's verified directly with the vendor, not just a search-result guess.

Why October specifically
It's not a coincidence. October is still the tail of Pattaya's rainy season - September and October are the wettest months of the year, and the calmer, drier stretch only starts in November, when hotels traditionally switch to high-season pricing (Pattaya Unlimited). The 6 October date falls in the last weeks before that switch. The seasonal window is a possible explanation for the low price, not a finding: our series shows a stable trend, not a falling one, but on its own it can't show why the price is low - or that there's no problem behind it.
What "real price" means for this package
Breakfast-only isn't all-inclusive, so we add the airport transfer (3,703 CZK) and extra meals (6,566 CZK) to the real price - together ~79,879 CZK for the whole family. Don't compare that figure with the 71,580 CZK median above: the median is built from catalogue prices, so the number to set against it is the 69,610 CZK catalogue price. We haven't computed a median of real prices for this series, so the real price stands on its own here, as an estimate of what the family actually pays (how we compute the real price is covered in Real price: what we count into it, and why). Flying it yourself for the same dates costs around 57,743 CZK for the family in flights alone from Vienna (bags and transfer included) - but you'd also need a hotel and food for 7 nights, which we haven't priced. Whether going it alone comes out cheaper or dearer than the package can't be told from these numbers.
What to do with it
This is exactly what the percentile and the moving trend exist for - not to say "cheap", but to say cheap compared to what, and how confident we are in that claim. How percentile, median and trend become a verdict is covered in How we read price history; the full process lives on How Voyscout works. The trend isn't rising right now - and the season is approaching the turn when hotels traditionally switch price lists; whether a November date comes out dearer, this series doesn't show yet.
Correction, 26 Oct 2026: the original version set the ~79,879 CZK real price against the 71,580 CZK catalogue median and said it stayed below it; it read the stable trend as proof that nothing was wrong behind the price; and it concluded from 57,743 CZK of flights, with the hotel and food unpriced, that the package wasn't the pricier choice. None of those three conclusions follows from the numbers given, so we corrected the text. The figures and their date (27 Jul 2026) are unchanged.
