Cheap Flights from Indira Gandhi International to Bangkok

To travel from Delhi to Bangkok, you can fly on SpiceJet, Jet Airways, Air India, Bangkok Airways, and Thai Airways. Each one of those airlines can take you directly from Delhi to Bangkok. SpiceJet and Air India each have one daily flight, but other airlines frequently offer several options each day.

These cheap flights from Delhi to Bangkok leave at all hours. Some leave in the morning or afternoon, getting you to Bangkok at a reasonable time. Others leave at night, setting up an arrival in the early morning hours.

Not all cheap flights from Delhi to Bangkok are direct. SriLankan, Jet Airways, Bangkok Airways, Air India, and IndiGo have flights from Delhi to Bangkok that make one stop. Other airlines that you can choose from include Qatar Airways, China Southern, Emirates, and Cathay Pacific. The locations of layovers include Kolkata, Bombay, Kuala Lumpur, Colombo, and Singapore. Layovers could be stopping for just a few hours, or you could be spending a whole night in an airport.

Your flight will leave from Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL). DEL has three terminals, but Terminal 2 is rarely used. SpiceJet, IndiGo, and other low-cost carriers fly out of Terminal 1. Most of the other flights leave out of Terminal 3. A more modern facility, Terminal 3 has duty-free shops, restaurants, and stores.

If you're on a domestic flight as the first leg of your trip, you can arrive 90 minutes before your scheduled departure. Those travellers on international flights should plan to arrive three hours ahead of their departure times. Everyone will need a passport, and some will need visas. For example, British passport holders can get visa exemptions on trips to Thailand that are under 30 days in length.

Nearly all of the flights from Delhi to Bangkok will be flying into Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK). Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) is the older airport in Bangkok, and relatively few flights land at DMK. Those that do are mostly operated by low-cost, domestic carriers.

BKK opened in 2006, and it has one main terminal filled with modern amenities. You can do some light shopping or grab some food before you head out of the airport. One convenient way to travel to the city is on the Airport Rail Link.

What to Expect in Bangkok

Bangkok is one and a half hours ahead of Delhi. In Thailand, people use the Thai baht. You can exchange your money in the airport. You can also go to hotels, major banks, and some shopping centres to find currency exchange. Many stores and restaurants in Bangkok have reasonable prices, but they may be more than what you'd expect in Delhi.

The Weather in Bangkok

The main climate difference between Bangkok and Delhi is that Bangkok stays warm even through the winter. Highs can range from the mid-30s degrees in the summer to the low-30s °C in the winter. It rains frequently in the summer and early fall.
