FAQs - booking Thailand flights

  • Do US citizens need a visa to travel to Thailand?

    No, US citizens do not need a visa for Thailand. There is a list of 64 countries that are exempt under the Visa Exemption Rule for entry to Thailand, so you should check online to see if your country is on the list. If it is, you will need to apply for a visa.

  • Is it recommended to buy local currency once I arrive in Thailand?

    Thai Baht is the currency used in Thailand and unless you acquire some before you take your flight from the US to Thailand, it is definitely recommended that you buy some notes upon arrival in the country to take care of transportation costs or to rent a car if you intend to drive while on vacation.

  • Can I get a nonstop flight to Krabi from the US?

    Unfortunately, there are no nonstop flights available from any airports in the United States to Thailand. If Krabi is your ultimate destination, your best bet is to book a flight to either Suvarnabhumi Airport or Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok and then get a connecting flight to Krabi International Airport (KBV).

  • Where should I fly to enjoy some festivals in Thailand?

    You can attend the Samui Regatta in the Gulf of Thailand with a connecting flight out of Bangkok to Samui Airport (USM). Another unique and popular event is the Rocket Festival (Boon Bang Fai) in Yasothorn province. If you don’t wish to drive, take a connecting flight from Bangkok to Ubon Ratchathani Airport (UBP) and arrange transportation from there.

  • What child seat laws do I need to be aware of to rent a car in Thailand?

    Any youngster under the age of 7 must ride in the rear of the vehicle in a child seat that has been properly installed. To ride in the front seat of a vehicle, any child under the age of 12 should be securely buckled into a child safety seat. Because kids can only ride in the back seat of a taxi, taxis are exempt from such car seat regulations in Thailand.

  • What other cities are reachable from Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) once I arrive at this airport?

    When traveling to Thailand from several international airports in the US, travelers can conveniently visit close-by cities to Suvarnabhumi Airport. From BKK, it is simple to go to a number of close-by cities, including Bang Bo, Samut Prakan, Phra Pradaeng, Lam Luk Ka, and Bangkok. After arriving at BKK, you have the option of boarding a public bus service, using a taxi, and renting a car.

  • Which airport lounges are preferred among economy travelers flying from the USA to Thailand?

    Airport lounges are typically thought of as one of the greatest places to unwind while passengers wait for their flights from the United States to Thailand. The majority of travelers in economy prefer to fly from the US to Thailand through Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC). Before taking off, passengers can affordably unwind in the Delta Sky Club at the SL Airport.

  • For the SWF-BKK route to Thailand, how can I catch the first flight at SWF Airport?

    The best method to take the earliest flight from SWF Airport to Thailand is to stay at a nearby hotel. One option that needs to be considered in this case is the Homewood Suites by Hilton Newburgh-Stewart Airport. Travelers can easily walk 0.6 miles to SWF Airport before boarding their flight to Thailand.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United States to Thailand?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from the United States to Thailand.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from the United States to Thailand?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from the United States to Thailand is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from the United States to Thailand?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly from the United States to Thailand with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United States to Thailand?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from the United States to Thailand up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

  • What is the cheapest day to fly to Thailand?

    Based on KAYAK data, the cheapest day to fly to Thailand is Thursday where round-trip tickets can be as cheap as $630. On the other hand, the most expensive day to fly is Monday, where round-trip prices are $875 on average.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Thailand

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Thailand flight deals.
  • Thailand has over 10 international airports because it is surrounded by several countries and due to its unique geography. Flights originating from the US to the country will arrive at one of three airports: Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), both in the capital city of Bangkok, and Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) in the northern part of the country.
  • The northern part of Thailand is dominated by the provinces of Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, both of which are within reach of Chiang Mai Airport. However, only flights from San Francisco Airport (SFO) use this hub, so if you arrive at either of the Bangkok Airports, you’ll have to arrange a connecting flight to either Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai Airport (CEI) to get there.
  • The Isan Region represents the eastern part of Thailand and there are four major cities there, including Khon Kaen, Nakhon Ratchasima and Udon Thani. Suvarnabhumi Airport is close to Nakhon Ratchasima, but the other cities are at least a 5h drive away, so flying into Udon Thani International Airport (UDD) will definitely save travel time that can be used to discover the region.
  • The popular resort island of Phuket and its world-class beaches lies almost 500 mi from Bangkok, but despite the distance, it’s cheaper to fly into Bangkok and get a connecting flight to Phuket International Airport (HKT) than to fly directly to Phuket. Therefore, you may wish to factor that into your travel plans when booking your flight from the US to Thailand.
  • Families traveling on holiday to Bangkok will want to check out KidZania, a miniature city tailormade for children to enjoy. KidZania is less than a 30m drive from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Siam Paragon downtown.
  • Due to its proximity to Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is a popular destination airport for most passengers flying from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Thailand. Indirect flights with a single layover at Tokyo International Airport (HND) on carriers like ANA and THAI are an option for passengers flying this route.
  • Travelers who come hail from the east coast region of the United States prefer to fly to Thailand from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Phuket International Airport (HKT). When using this flight route, passengers can take indirect flights with a single layover at Dubai International Airport (DBX) on airlines like Emirates and Qatar Airways.
  • Travelers from the central United States that intend to fly to Thailand typically use Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW ) as their departure airport. Many indirect flights with a single layover at Heathrow Airport (LHR) on different airlines, including British Airways and THAI, are accessible from this airport to Suvarnabhumi Airport.
  • If you're flying to one of the northern cities in Thailand, the Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX), which serves Chiang Mai Province, might be a better airport option. John F. Kennedy International Airport offers two-stop flights with stopovers at Heathrow and Suvarnabhumi Airports, on a variety of airlines to CNX, with Virgin Atlantic and Bangkok Airways being the most popular.
  • Take one of the indirect flights with a single layover at Heathrow Airport offered by EVA Air, China Airlines, or JAL from Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) if you plan to fly to Thailand from the northwest of the United States.

10.0 ExcellentVivian, Nov 2025SEA - ICN

The boarding process was efficient and quick. The seats were comfortable. The food was good. The service was excellent. We had a lovely flight from Seattle on Korean air

Flight crew was fantastic. The aircraft was meticulously cleaned at all times. The crew was continuously checking to see if the passengers were ok.

They were trying to get people to check luggage because the over head compartments were full but when we boarded there were lots of empty places that people could have put the luggage.

It was good, I liked the self-serve snacks but it was a little difficult to get the alcohol, which is understandable since I wouldn't want kids sneaking it.

Friendly flight attendants and gate agents. Very clean plane and food was good!

I was unable to select decent seats, and so I was stuck in the middle seat because it was selected for me

There was a lot of partial tv shows but not enough to last the flight. The food was incredible! The crew were so helpful and patient. Lots more space than what I usually get on an international flight. Very comfortable!

Stingy on the drinks - 15 hour direct flight and could barely get attention for some water

Not many people, so you can lay down on two seats

They did an excellent job helping me with a wheelchair. I couldn’t have asked for any better help.

Great experienced staff and very pleasant compared to some other international airlines

Flight was good and comfortable, even for long haul economy. No complaints.

Checking in via an alliance partner, even a foreign one should get TSA Precheck printed on your boarding pass. The paper copy issued by ANA didn’t show it. I couldn’t get my digital copy due to some technical issue arising because I checked in with ANA. The kiosks at SFO similarly threw an error. The only way I could have gotten a new copy of my boarding pass was from the UA counter and lines were nearly as long as TSA so I bit the bullet and went through the regular TSA line. If UA wants my business, they need to improve that process.

They lost my luggage on the inbound flight and then lost it again on this flight. I called online travel agent to change earlier flight to get a longer layover in Vancouver but ANA denied it

Suite lounge in Honolulu is very exclusive and boarding from the lounge into the plane is unique. First suites were huge and comfortable. Japanese meal is like a high end omakase meal. All the staff were very kind and provided sophisticated service. Fast Track upon landing was appreciated but not needed this time because immigration was so empty and easy.

I like the service very much. The food just okay but maybe different culture who like, who don't like.

Warm the bread. Movies: better choices to include Chinese movies options or some of the older winners of flim festival

Almost 6 hours of delay with over 12 gate changes. Flight was supposed to depart around 6 and instead depart after 12am. No accommodations were offered than some snacks closer to midnight when the crew was planning to throw away some snacks.

The crew was very nice and polite. They made sure everybody got their meal and drinks. Even the economy class had a very adequate leg room for someone that is over 6 foot tall.

Purchased WiFi was slow to non functional. Staff was not personable or friendly. Seats were cramped. Boarding took long but I expected that.

There were delays at boarding and landing. These events resulted in a tight transfer time in HK. Poor signage for transfers. Finally, lost luggage at final destination.

It was good. The planes needed to be updated though, they were dated and the entertainment systems were old. Service was amazing. The pre-booked meals were lacklustre.

Super delayed. Unnecessary. Need more competent people doing logistics to keep things moving on time. Totally unacceptable.

Flew from lax economy on cathay 777. Seat configuration 3-4-3. When the forward seat reclines it feels like someone is leaning forward and staring you. If you are slightly big tray tables will touch your abdomen even with seats upright. AVOID this above 777 configuration at all cost for a long flight. However their Airbus 350 3-3-3 configuration felt spacious and Seats wider.

It's basically 15 hours with an airline in economy class. There's really not much of anything that could have been done better unless I had a first class ticket. Cathay Pacific does excellent work, with a very professional, friendly and attentive crew. It's literally the only airline that I will fly to Southeast Asia.

Crew on this flight dedicate their business class service to their high priority members. They would get priority service even the seats are behind me, and meals priority service and orders. I get the left over choices. I refused to eat because I felt discriminated, never booking this airline.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Food was great. Lots of movies and tv shows to choose from. Highly recommend.

Leg room wasn't that great. Other than that it was a good flight

Issues: 1) the charging issue as described in my previous survey 2) when I requested diet coke during the breakfast time, it is not available. Why? I can't drink diet coke in the morning? 3) when I tried to transfer to this flight, its gate information was not available to me?

Close to excellent. The only problem is when I try to charge my phone on the USB in front of my seat, the battery level is decreasing rather than increasing. Why?

All good. Over four hours flight if provided snacks like Qatar Airways would be better

Lobster starter in business class was not good, tough, served cold, and without butter. Movie selection was missing latest releases, did not offer older classic, high quality movies

Food was absolutely pathetic. I wasted so much food which I thought was inedible. I also loathe the inflight entertainment system which has very little content

My entire row did not have power for the full duration of a 14.5 hour flight. Could not charge any devices such as laptop or phones for the entirety of the long flight. The flight attendants tried to remedy the issue by resetting the power, but were not successful. The only other solution provided was to move me to another seat on the plane which was in the middle row. I had paid for a “preferred” seat that was a window seat. This was a downgrade being offered due to the power issue.

Nothing to complain. The staff and flight was good especially the seats which was better compared than the cloth ones on Qatar airways

I prebooked a comfort plus seat on this flight and therefore the flight was comfy. I got the correct seat in the correct section of the plane that I have booked, that's this. Flight was comfortable. Staff were average on the flight, appearing to be rushed and short in engagement with travellers, perhaps this to maximise there rest time on the flight.

I was travelling 3.5 years after. Agree Economy is no business class but the food was mediocre. Ordered a Hindu meal, the salads were bitter . The food was really below quality and had no tast from what I had in the past. Indian Railways probably have a better quality food when compared. However the kids meal was really nice and really appreciate how they were taken care of. The restrooms were dirty .

My flight was with American Airlines 120. The flight was delayed 3 hours and I missed my connection. When I arrived in Doha, the AA staff told me to call an 800 number to rebook a different flight, which was unacceptable. Eventually a Qatar Air staff member helped rebook me on a flight to Manila, that was 12 hours later. They offered me a hotel and meal voucher which I declined, because I didn’t want to leave the airport. Long story short, I spent 12 hours in the Doha airport waiting for my next flight.

Overall the experience was neat with crew being nice and caring especially to parent with kids. The free snacks option was okay. The kiosk at Philly airport didn’t work.

Reason for travelling Tampa to Orlando is to fly Qatar Airline. we end up with American Airline. This was the miserable experience I ever had in my entire travel history. Flight attendants were rude. They hit my knee with the food cart and I was holding ice pack for 2 hours. I still have the pain after a week. WE boarded the flight twice because of the temperature inside the plan.

They brought an empty plane to the gate. Then a flight delay was announced for maintenance and waiting on a part. I was then put on a flight to San Francisco instead with a connecting flight to my final destination. Arrived at my final destination 2 hours late.

The only downside was my cell phone charger wouldn’t work in the charging port but everyone else’s would work in them all. My cell phone cable works fine in my hotel room in Frankfurt.

Flight and crew were great. United didn't inform crew of immigration process which was disappointing!

Flight team stood out for perzonal attention, kindness at bright cheery attitudes at 8am. Very helpful.

Seats had less pitch than a regional jet. Food was OK. Have to buy alcohol on US based carriers flying international. Boarding was a mess. Did not have bags but overhead space was gone quick. Would like to see the airlines enforce the one bag over and one bag under policy

Ot was overall fine. Left on time and had basic snacks. Weather was finicky but that’s not the airlines fault.

from SFO-> FRA flight, AVML meal was significantly less compared to regular meal, especially no Desert, no Bread, no sides.

Very nice flight love the small aircraft. We had a wonderful flight attendant. Nice to see someone that really enjoys her job. Don't have her name but had a southern accent.

This was an older airplane. The cabin was constantly warm to hot throughout the 10 hour flight and there were no vents to personalize air flow. Also since it was an older plane, the material and comfort of the chairs were very uncomfortable. I left my flight with major soreness on my tailbone.

Very thoughtful flight attendant offered me water immediately since I had run to make my connection.
