Peak season:
The best time to visit Bangkok is between November and March when the weather is tropical yet comfortable. You’ll need to book your flights to Bangkok earlier to make the best savings during the peak season. At certain times in the year, flights to Bangkok can be as much as twice the price as flight tickets in the off season, so weigh up the pro’s and con’s of each season. Make sure to check for any events or festivals during the peak season and these will drastically rise the prices of your flights to Bangkok.
Off season:
March to May is when Bangkok is unbearably hot for most people, so it’s best to avoid flights to Bangkok at that time of year if you hate the heat. May to October is rainy season, throughout which it is hot and humid, but not uncomfortably so making it an ideal time to find a cheap flights to Bangkok. During the summer in the UK is when you’ll find great deals on flight tickets for Bangkok and you’ll find cheaper accommodation due to less tourists flocking.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to Bangkok, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, April is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 30.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 26.0 C).
You’ll find cheap flights to Bangkok during the off season, but you’ll need to book a couple of months in advance to make savings on your flight tickets. If you’re visiting during a festival, make sure to book as early as you possibly can to avoid extremely expensive flights to Bangkok. If you are able to be flexible with your dates then you’ll have the best chances of securing cheap flight tickets and saving money on your flights to Bangkok. Try to sit on the right hand side of the plane as this will offer you the best views of Bangkok as you approach.

I like the polite and friendly air crew. Boarding from the aircrew was fine and orderly, however the Changi gate staff were disorderly and chaotic. I found the economy seating was way too small for a full service airline. It seems about the same size now as the budget carriers and I’m not sure if the value for money is there anymore. The saving grace with that is the generous baggage allowance. Our Singapore Darwin leg was on a 737-800, a small plane for an almost 5 hour journey. As was the case on our Darwin Singapore leg, the flight was full. So it was quite hot and unpleasant for the hour extra we had to wait on the runway before we actually took off. Total time in that cramped seat was close to 6hrs and no way of sleeping even with the fatigue of our 12.5hr Munich Singapore flight preceding it. I love Singapore Airlines and value our sole full service direct connection from Darwin, but we paid a lot of money for the cheap seats and it appears that the airline has slipped since we last flew with them in 2019.

Suvarnabhumi International Airport (pronounced su-wan-na-poom), or Bangkok International, is located in Racha Thewa, Thailand, approximately 25km (16 miles) east of downtown Bangkok. It is the country’s busiest airport, and the third busiest in Asia, with almost 43 million passengers in 2010.
Suvarnabhumi Airport, meaning “Golden Land” in Sanskrit, features the tallest control tower in the world and the world’s largest single-building passenger terminal. Travellers can expect everything that most international airports offer – an extensive array of shopping and dining, facilities and services. Constructed almost entirely of glass, the interior of the terminal is well lit and airy. Moreover, numerous traditional artworks and fabrics draped from the walls and ceilings are a wonderful introduction to Thai culture.
Suvarnabhumi International Airport is clean, modern and well maintained and, like all Thai citizens, staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Expect nothing less than a world-class experience when visiting Thailand’s primary aerial gateway.
Situated in Bangkok, a mere 25km (15 miles) from the city centre, Don Muang Airport was, at its peak, the second biggest international airport in Asia. However, it closed its doors to commercial airlines after the opening of the new Suvarnabhumi Airport in 2006, before reopening in 2007 to domestic flights following complaints about the new airport. Today, the airport is used mostly for charter flights, for civil aviation, and by the military (the Royal Thai Air Force has a base here). Two of the three terminals are closed, and the third is used by only a handful of low-cost domestic airlines for non-connecting flights. Non-scheduled international flights occasionally make use of the International Terminal.
Most travellers agree that Don Muang (also sometimes spelled Don Mueang) remains a pleasant, functional domestic terminal.
