Thailand & Seoul: €510 Cathay Pacific Flights From Madrid; €600 to China (Incl. Checked Luggage)

Oneworld member Cathay Pacific is offering a deal from Madrid to Asia, starting at just €510 to Bangkok. This deal includes 23 kg of checked luggage. Departures are available from November 2025 to January 2026.

You can reach the following destinations:

• Bangkok at €510
• Phuket at €511 (long layover in the inbound flight)
• Chiang Mai at €571 (long layover in the outbound flight)
• Seoul at €557
• Shanghai at €600
• Beijing at €602
• and more…

Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Cathay Pacific or Skyscanner with your selected flight dates. From there, you can check what OTAs have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €30 cheaper:

First, you will fly from Madrid to Hong Kong on a Cathay Pacific Airbus A350 with a 3-3-3 configuration. Then, for most segments, you will continue with Cathay Pacific, using either wide-body or narrow-body aircraft depending on your flight. For Chiang Mai, you will fly with the low-cost carrier Hong Kong Express, but you will still have your luggage allowance for this flight as well.

Search & Book

This deal does not have an expiration date, but a minimum stay of a Saturday overnight stay, and a maximum stay of two months apply. Departures are available from from November 2025 to January 2026.

You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on Cathay Pacific’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.

Multi City Tickets

This deal allows you to book multi-city trips, enabling you to enter through one destination and exit through another, often at the same price or slightly more, depending on your chosen dates. For example, if you’re heading to Thailand, you can book an outbound flight to Phuket with a short layover in Hong Kong and return from Chiang Mai to Madrid, also with a short layover. This approach makes your journey more efficient and time-saving. Here’s an example, along with our search form and a link to Google Flights so you can try it with your dates.
