Bangkok & Singapore: €1,431 Air India Business Class Flights from Milan

Star Alliance member Air India is offering a deal from Milan to Bangkok & Singapore starting at just €1,431. This deal includes 2×32 kg checked luggage and all the business class perks. Departures are available in May and from July to April 2025.

Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Skyscanner with your selected flight dates under €1600. From there, you can proceed to Air India or check what OTAs have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €150 cheaper:

First, you will fly with Air India from Milan to Delhi. A Boeing 787 is used for this leg, offering 18 seats in a 2-2-2 configuration in business class. All seats can be fully converted into a flat bed. The seat pitch is 188 centimeters.

For the onward flight to Bangkok or Singapore, increased attention is required, as flights on these routes may be operated by aircraft from the Airbus A320 family. This means that in business class, you will only have a normally adjustable seat. There is also the option to fly in a full-fledged Business Class on the second segment; however, the transfer times in Delhi are usually significantly longer in these cases.

The flight duration from Milan to Bangkok is approximately 15 hours in both directions. For flights to Singapore, the travel time may be slightly longer depending on the connection and the duration of the layover in India.

Search & Book

This deal doesn’t have an expiration date, but a minimum stay of four days, and a maximum stay of three months applies. Departures are available in May and from July to April 2025.

You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on Air India’s website, but you can find cheaper prices with Skyscanner. However, booking on OTAs has its downsides.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?

More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:

Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.

If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.

This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.

Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.

This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Air India currently has numerous other destinations within India available at a low cost, if you wish to fly in business class. We have already presented the potential destinations departing from Copenhagen separately in this deal:
