Former SkyTeam member ITA Airways is offering a deal from Rome to Bangkok. By adding a connection flight from other European airports, you can reach the Thai capital for as little as €934. The fare not only includes full board service, but also two checked bags of 23kg each. Departures are scattered between September 2025 to July 2026.
When we posted this deal, there was a coupon that discounted departures from Italy by 10%. That coupon has now expired. The prices, however, still remain attractive.
You can fly with this offer from the following airports:
- Bari at €934
- Bologna at €938
- Palermo at €939
- Catania at €942
- Milan at €945
- Paris at €1,024
- Barcelona at €1,035
- Athens at €1,052
- Madrid at €1,058
- Rome at €1,031
It is also possible to combine an (overnight) business class outbound with a (daytime) premium economy inbound for €1,322 – when travelling from Italy.
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days without overnight stays in Rome. It will forward you to ITA Airways with your selected flight dates. You can also check what OTAs have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €40 cheaper.

The European flights from and to Rome see you seated in economy class. The long flights to Bangkok are operated by Airbus A330-900neo aircraft. These feature a 2-3-2 seating in premium economy compared to the 2-4-2 in economy class. You can find a review of the fairly new product here.
ITA’s premium economy class is offered on long-haul flights from and to Rome. An extra cabin with a maximum of 17 seats provides a nice and cosy atmosphere. 2 x 23 kg of luggage are included, and you’ll save some time at the airport by skipping the check-in line and being among the first to board the plane.
Most European citizens can enter Thailand visa-free for 60 days when travelling for touristic purposes.
Search & Book
According to the fare rules, tickets are on sale without a travel or sales period. A minimum stay of four days or one night from Saturday to Sunday is necessary to get the cheapest tickets. Departures are scattered between September 2025 to July 2026.
Google Flights helps you find additional flight dates and origins. Since the price difference between ITA’s website and Skyscanner’s OTA prices is rather narrow, we recommend purchasing tickets directly from the carrier.
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.

Information & Tips for Bangkok
Bangkok is known for its vibrant street life, cultural landmarks, and bustling markets. Key sights include the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and the lively Khao San Road. The local currency is the Thai baht (THB), and while credit cards are widely accepted in hotels and large stores, cash is preferred for smaller vendors. The city is relatively affordable, with street food and public transport offering great value. Bangkok has a tropical climate, with hot and humid weather year-round, a rainy season from May to October, and cooler, more comfortable temperatures from November to February.
