AirAsia first LCC to fly to Bangkok’s both airports

AirAsia Thailand will launch flights on 20 June from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, making it the first low-cost airline to offer flights to Kuala Lumpur from Bangkok’s two international airports. Travellers planning trips to Bangkok from Kuala Lumpur can now choose flights landing at Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) or Suvarnabhumi International Airport. Flights on the Kuala Lumpur – Suvarnabhumi route will operate twice daily. AirAsia Thailand CEO Santisuk Klongchaiya said: “At present, the carrier operates three domestic routes from Suvarnabhumi, flying to Chiang Mai, Phuket and Krabi, and from June onwards will be operating our first international route with Suvarnabhumi-Kuala Lumpur.” Fully vaccinated travellers between Thailand and Malaysia are no longer required to present a Covid-19 test result or undergo quarantine on arrival. Thailand will abolish the Thailand Pass requirement for Thai Nationals to enter the country from 1 June 2022.<br/>
