Hi has anyone any knowledge of the best airline/cheapest tickets available for this route.
Also any info on stopover times etc.. anything will be greatly appreciated.

skyscanner comes up with some long 2-stop routings, 30+ hours and B75k minimum-price.

Perhaps look at flying to Europe, and then another flight down to Banjul, which is largely a winter-sun holiday-destination, or routing via Dakar in neighbouring Senegal, might be best ? To Dakar only, throws-up Emirates & Royal Air Maroc, at 22-hours & B65k.

Happy Travels !

I have done this trip many times both ways. However my last trip was two years ago and at that time I went through England and used charter flight from UK to Banjul. About a year ago Emirates introduced Dakar as a destination, and if I were to go now I would definitely use that option. Uncertain of flights from Dakar to Banjul as Air Senegal and Slok Air are now not operating. I think one of the Nigerian airlines would be the option. Take a look at www.flightstats.com website and go to Dakar airport departuresfind out what flights/airlines there are from Dakar to Banjul.

Matrix comes up with prices in the 90,000THB range, so try another routing as suggested above

Also take a look at www.aireuropa.com. They are now flying from Banjul to London and Madrid and possibly other European cities. Good prices to be found on their site. The main problem is always the Banjul leg. Once you've got a decent flight with decent times and cost to Europe, you can usually get a decent flight to BKK.
