British Airways touched down in Bangkok this week after more than four years since flying to Thailand.

The aircraft departed London Gatwick at 21:15 local time on Monday October 28, landing at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport the following day at 16:10 local time. Customers on the first flight were greeted on arrival by traditional dancers, flower garlands and local gifts.

British Airways announced its return to Bangkok earlier this year having last flown in 2020. Flights will operate three times per week initially, increasing up to five times per week in January and February 2025, and four times per week in March 2025. Customers have a choice of three cabins – World Traveller (economy), World Traveller Plus (premium economy) and Club World (business class) – with return fares from £718.

The airline also recently announced its expanded codeshare partnership with Bangkok Airways, giving customers the opportunity to seamlessly connect onto five holiday destinations from Bangkok. Customers can travel to the turquoise waters of Koh Samui or Phuket, or fly north to Chiang Mai to enjoy picturesque mountain views and visit historical temples. Those looking to travel to Cambodia can fly to its bustling capital, Phnom Penh or the northwestern resort town of Siem Reap.

Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ Chief Planning and Strategy Officer, said: “We know that Bangkok has been a highly anticipated route restart for our customers, so we are thrilled to see it firmly back on our global route map.

“Not only does Bangkok itself have so much to offer our leisure customers, but it is a gateway to some of the most beautiful parts of Southeast Asia and we are proud to make these more accessible to the UK market.”

Ms. Sadudee Sangnil, Director of UK, Ireland & South Africa, Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), said: “It is great to welcome British Airways back to Thailand, and just in time for the peak season. With so much to experience across Thailand the addition of these flights means we can welcome more people, seeking winter sun, to experience Thailand’s warmth, beauty, and culture. Connectivity to popular hubs such as Phuket is fantastic but we also welcome visitors to explore beyond and discover local communities, national parks and lesser known beaches. Chiang Mai, which has quickly recovered from recent floods, is also welcoming travellers again.”

The airline proudly operates to nearly 200 destinations globally in more than 60 countries worldwide.
