Skyteam members Air France and KLM bring you an attractive fare for flights from Amsterdam to Bangkok. Business class roundtrips start at €1,330 with a stop in Paris both ways. Adding a KLM’s nonstop flight either way adds approx. €300. This fare seems to be exclusively available for May 2020 departures.
Air France sends a mixture of Boeing 777-300ER and Airbus A350 from Paris to Bangkok. You can expect a 2-2-2 seating pattern in the former and a less dense 1-2-1 in the latter’s premium cabin.
Search & Book
According to the fare rules, these tickets are available until December 22, 2019 or until sold out. They are valid for journeys between December 28, 2019 and June 1, 2020. A minimum stay of six days or at least one night from saturday to sunday applies as well as a maximum stay of one month.
Google Flights indicates availability for only three possible departure dates in May 2020. However, if you search directly via Air France or KLM, you will find a much wider array of travel dates. We recommend searching and booking directly with one of the airlines in this case.

Information & Tips for Thailand
Thailand is famous for its vibrant cities, beautiful beaches, and rich cultural heritage. Key sights include the Grand Palace and Wat Pho in Bangkok, the ancient city of Ayutthaya, and the islands of Phuket and Koh Samui. The currency is the Thai baht (THB), and while credit cards are commonly accepted in tourist areas, cash is often preferred in local markets. The cost of living is generally low, with budget accommodations and street food available, but prices can rise in more touristy areas. The weather is tropical, with a hot, rainy season from May to October and a cooler, dry season from November to February.
Getting around Thailand is fairly easy, with a mix of modern and traditional options. In cities like Bangkok, public transport includes the Skytrain (BTS), metro (MRT), and river ferries, which are convenient but can get crowded. Taxis and motorbike taxis are also widely available. For intercity travel, buses and trains are common and affordable, though train journeys can be slow. Domestic flights are frequent and often the fastest way to travel longer distances, especially to popular islands or northern regions. However, traffic congestion in urban areas can be a challenge, particularly during rush hours.
