AirAsia to fly from Suvarnabhumi to Khon Kaen and Udon Thani from 1 Feb Grab promo fares now from 890 THB only
BANGKOK, 8 January 2025 - AirAsia strengthens its operations base at Suvarnabhumi Airport by launching two new direct routes: Suvarnabhumi-Khon Kaen, with one flight per day, and Suvarnabhumi-Udon Thani, with two flights per day.
The first flights for both routes will commence on 1 February 2025. Currently, Thai AirAsia operates six routes from Suvarnabhumi, connecting the North, Northeast, and South, including Chiang Mai, Phuket, Krabi, Hat Yai, Khon Kaen, and Udon Thani.
The airline emphasizes its commitment to on-time performance after receiving recognition for on-time performance in 2024 from Cirium. Thai AirAsia is the only Thai airline ranked among the top five most punctual airlines in Asia-Pacific and the top ten most punctual low-cost airlines globally.
Ms. Tansita Akraritpirom, Head of Commercial for Thai AirAsia, pointed out that on top of operating out of Don Mueang Airport (DMK), Thai AirAsia plans to expand its domestic network out of Suvarnabhumi Airport to provide convenience and more options for travelers. We are very happy with our route performance from Suvarnabhumi with load factors averaging a significantly high 93 percent in 2024. This is a strong signal that demand for flights from Suvarnabhumi is on the rise and we decided to roll out Suvarnabhumi-Khon Kaen and Suvarnabhumi-Udon Thani from 1 Feb.
“Domestic air travel continued to grow last year and Thai AirAsia has secured a high market share of 39-40 percent, flying out of Bangkok from both Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports. We plan to introduce more routes from Suvarnabhumi this year to attract new travel groups, from Thai flyers for whom departing Suvarnabhumi is more convenient, and international travelers flying through Suvarnabhumi to other regions of the nation,” Ms. Tansita said.
AirAsia operates with Airbus A320 and A321neo aircraft, offering a seating capacity of 180-236 passengers. In February, the airline will increase its fleet based at Suvarnabhumi Airport to four aircraft to accommodate the growing number of flights. This expansion aims to enhance its flight network from Suvarnabhumi Airport to its full potential.
Suvarnabhumi-Khon Kaen and Suvarnabhumi-Udon Thani are being introduced with the “Fly Direct from Suvarnabhumi to Esan Today” promotion, offering the flights from only 890 THB per trip. Book via AirAsia MOVE today - 28 February 2025 for travel from 1 February 2025 onwards.
