Steven, I'm sorry for not communicating better. When I asked if the question was about the prices for diving or packages, I meant, dives only vs dives/hotel package. Is that more clear?

Yes, more clear, thanks. But you'd have to ask the travel agent.Steven, I'm sorry for not communicating better. When I asked if the question was about the prices for diving or packages, I meant, dives only vs dives/hotel package. Is that more clear?
Rather strange to put up the price during low season.Boat operators will raise prices per 1 September.
Less boat capacity due to maintenance, makes a lot of sense to do it now.Rather strange to put up the price during low season.
More incentive to go to Phuket during low season as long as one is not looking to dive Similan and doesn't mind a bit of rain. When the hotel room is about 25% of what they normally charged.
My guess would be they will change the agent rate 1 September, and retail prices 1 October or 1 November.Both Sea Bees and Dive Asia have not altered their daily diving rates between now to end of Oct. However, no rate is quoted from 01st Nov onward.
Does it make any differences when they have their own boats?
