The days when many airlines offered cheap flight tickets to Bangkok are sadly over. However, with Saudia, you can still get to the Thai metropolis from Zurich at a reasonable price: €444 for the round trip, including luggage, is fair. Availability is good for trips from March to August 2024, but you’ll sadly have an overnight layover on the way back.
You can proceed with the booking on Saudia.com through the form below (for €471) or use OTAs via the Travel-Dealz flight search to only pay around €444:
Usually, Airbus A320 family aircraft and Boeing 787 Dreamliners are used for these flights. The legroom is approximately 80 centimetres. Unfortunately, you will always have a longer layover in Riyadh on the way back.
By the way, depending on where you live, one of these Bangkok deals may be even more attractive for you:

Information & Tips for Thailand
Thailand is an increasingly popular holiday destination for Europeans – both beach and party tourists get their money’s worth in the South Asian tropical state.
Whether Bangkok, Koh Samui or Phuket, Thailand offers multi-faceted cities and quiet beaches. Also, the country is always easy to reach from Europe. Especially to Bangkok, there is almost always at least a good deal!
Best Time to Visit
While hot summer temperatures prevail the whole year long in tropical Thailand, the best travel time is definitely the winter from November to February. Thanks to the northwest monsoon it doesn’t get warmer than 33 degrees. In summer the temperatures can quickly reach 40 degrees. The rainy season also starts in June and will last until October – high humidity is what you’ll have to prepare for!
Entry & Visa
Most EU citizens do not need a visa for stays up to a length of 30 days. The entry permit can be extended by another 30 days before expiration by local immigration authorities.
Currency
The national currency of Thailand is the Baht (THB) which is divided into Satang. One Euro is about 40 THB.
