Need a Car For After Your Flight?

Thailand flights take you to a country of incredible contrasts, from the beautiful beaches to the incredible sights of Bangkok. Low cost deals to Thailand are common, making it a wonderful tourist destination.

Flights to Thailand

Seven International airports serve this country. The busiest airport and main hub for Thai Airways, Suvarnabhumi (pronounced su-wan-na-poom), is 16 miles from the nation's capital, Bangkok. The unique wavelike design of the terminal roof gives visitors arriving on Thailand flights the impression of floating. There is a rail link and 12 bus routes into the city, plus the express shuttle, private limos, and regular taxis. Thailand is an affordable country, so all transfers are relatively cheap. Other major international airports include: Mae Fah Luang-Chiang Rai, serving visitors on northern Thailand flights, and Phuket, the second busiest airport, bringing many tourists to the beautiful island just off the mainland.

Thailand Weather

The country is mainly regarded as tropical, which means hot and sticky, so no need to pack a big coat, but a waterproof jacket may be in order, especially if your flight to Thailand is between July and October, as this is monsoon season. That said, these heavy downpours are brief, so don't be put off; you may be able to pick up a cheap air ticket at a bargain price. If you visit between November and March the temperatures are still very warm, probably in the low 90's Fahrenheit, but it is not so humid.

Getting Around Thailand

After you land from your flight to Thailand, you will find many forms of transport to whisk you around the country. In Bangkok and the close provinces, a long-tail boat up the rivers and canals is par for the course. Bus travel is quite an eye-opener at first, but you soon get used to seeing people hang off the sides of the buses. You should hail them with your hand palm-side down. Cars, jeeps, motorcycles, and even vans are hired in all major cities and airports, but for longer trips, why not take the train, which on the whole is very well run. Thailand flights more often than not touch down in Bangkok, and nearly all long-distance trains originate from there. Locally the three-wheeled tuk-tuk's are everywhere, and are ideal for navigating the cities.

Thailand Attractions

As a stunningly beautiful country, you will want to take flights to Thailand time and again to fully appreciate the amazing scenery and incredible sights. Everybody should visit the magnificent Grand Palace in the center of Bangkok and marvel at the intricacies in the detailed design. As for shopping, the remarkable floating markets simply have to be experienced to be believed. Other major attractions of Thailand include:

  • An elephant park, where you can even give one a scrub down
  • The spectacular waterfalls at Khao Yai National Park
  • Scuba diving at Koh Lante, amongst the staggering marine life
  • The world famous Bridge Over The River Kwai
  • The ruins at the ancient city of Ayutthaya

Using Orbitz, you'll uncover some of the most incredible flight deals around from a wide selection of airlines. But if you'd love to heighten your chances of booking cheap flights to Thailand, here are some pointers designed to help:

  • Taking off from or arriving at other airports can sometimes work out cheaper. Enter your preferred departure and arrival airports. Next, click on the 'Nearby airports' function below to see your options.
  • If you're flexible with your travel itinerary, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link. It'll show the flight deals for the days before and after your chosen departure. Airfares often vary depending on what day it is.
  • To filter your results, click on 'Show options.' You can search based on airlines, seating class, nonstop flights and refundable flights. You can also select whether you want to fly in the morning, afternoon or evening under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
  • If you've sorted your travel dates, don't delay booking. Airfares normally rise as the departure date gets closer.
  • Bundle your hotels, flights and car rental into a value-for-money package deal. Save your cash for things you're really excited about, like exploring every corner of Thailand.
  • If you can, don't travel in the busy season. Airfares are often at their most expensive during summer, school breaks and around other vacation times like Easter and Thanksgiving.

What do I need for the flight to Thailand?
It's wise to be prepared for anything when embarking on a trip. Keep in mind the following tips for a smooth, stress-free journey:

  • Nothing is more important than having your travel documents. Which to bring and how many depend on whether you're traveling domestic or international. It's best to check with your airline. In both cases, you'll need to present proof of identification.
  • If you're flying directly to Thailand, chances are you're going to be in the sky for quite a while. Take plenty of snacks and entertainment to keep you busy. Now is a terrific time to get stuck into that novel you've been eager to read!
  • Cabin temperatures often fluctuate, so it's wise to pack a sweater. Also consider compression socks. They can help prevent your feet and legs from getting achy and swollen.

How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Thailand?
If you think a first or business-class ticket is out of your reach, you may want to think again. Here are some practical tips to help you find a premium flight to Thailand for less:

  • Being flexible isn't confined to yoga. Avoid locking in your travel dates so you can snap up more affordable airfares when a sale comes along.
  • Find a low-cost carrier that has business-class seats. They usually come with more space and a glass of bubbly — but without the premium price.
  • Bid for an upgrade in online auctions or upgrade your seat with loyalty points.
