Flights to/from Thailand status, news, and updates

I doubt that will impact flights to/from Thailand!!

A lot of Aussies fly to/from Thailand via Singapore due to costs/availability with direct flights from downunder, so I imagine it will limit their options.

DB my mate recently flew Brisbane /Bkk on jetstar and he was hoping to do it again next March... no longer.

Sorry, I obviously didn’t read the article carefully enough and thought they were operating out of Singapore and didn’t realise that they had some services directly to/from BKK.

I'd imagine a fair few are (or were) using are simply the service for (budget) direct flights to Singapore (from Thailand) - but you're excused DB

According to this part of the report, international flights in and out of Oz are continuing:

"Jetstar Airways’ international services in and out of Australia will also remain unchanged."

Seems it's only the Singapore hub affected.

An interesting development....


Manchester Airport has announced a new direct route to Bangkok in Thailand - the first airport outside of London to do so.

Norse Atlantic Airways will launch the flights in November this year, running a weekly service until March. Tickets have gone on sale today, July 3, for the new route which will operate on a Boeing 787-9. Return tickets start from £489.

According to this article, the flights are even cheaper although it doesn’t include any food or stowed luggage - but it will appeal to those looking for low cost direct flights.

Yes, that is more what I was expecting. Certainly when mentioned here a few months ago, that is what we were told to expect. £489 was a bit of a shock.
