Thai Airways operates their Boeing 787 and Airbus A350 on flights between Europe and Bangkok, configured in a 3-3-3 layout. All return flights from Thailand are red-eye flights, allowing you to sleep on your way back to Europe and adjust better to the time difference.
Most European passport holders can stay in Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days.
Search & Book
This deal will expire on March 31. A minimum stay of five days, and a maximum stay of three months apply. Departures are available until June, with blackout dates in February.
You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on Thai Airways’ website, but you can find cheaper prices with Trip.com. 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.
Editor’s Note: Great price for a non-stop flight with luggage included in my opinion. I’m also a big fan of taking a red-eye flight without any stops to your final destination. If you go to Bangkok I recommend to visit Rough and Round in Song Wat Road to get coffee.

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.
