Which airlines fly Mumbai to Bangkok non-stop?

Thai Airways, Air India and IndiGo run daily non-stops from Terminal 2 into Suvarnabhumi (BKK), Bangkok's main airport. Thai budget airlines have also flown Mumbai to Don Mueang (DMK), the older airport about 25 km north. Check which Bangkok airport your ticket shows, because the two can be an hour apart in traffic.

Best flight timings

Bangkok is 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of India. Many departures are overnight, landing between 6 and 8 am: you gain a full day but lose a night's sleep, so book early check-in or keep day one light. A daytime flight costs more but suits young children and older parents.

Baggage: full-service vs low-cost

Thai Airways and Air India include meals and a checked bag, with the weight depending on the fare. IndiGo charges for food and seats, and its lowest fares may carry a smaller checked allowance. Budget airlines into Don Mueang usually sell checked bags separately.

Getting from Suvarnabhumi to the city

The Airport Rail Link reaches Phaya Thai in about 26 minutes for THB 45 (about ₹120), connecting with the BTS Skytrain. A metered taxi to Sukhumvit takes 35–60 minutes and costs THB 300–450 (₹800–1,200) including the airport surcharge and tolls. Pattaya is about 2 hours by road.

When to book and connecting options

Book 3–6 weeks ahead. November to February is high season, and fares rise around Diwali, Christmas and the May–June school holidays. July to September is usually cheapest. Thai Airways connects onwards to Phuket, Krabi and Chiang Mai on one ticket, which protects you if the first flight runs late.

Tips for families and seniors

Ask for wheelchair help at booking; Suvarnabhumi has long walks to immigration. Fill the TDAC for every family member, including infants, before you fly, and carry a printed hotel booking and return ticket.

Frequently asked questions

How long is the flight from Mumbai to Bangkok?
A non-stop Mumbai to Bangkok flight takes about 4 hours 15 minutes to 4 hours 30 minutes. Bangkok is 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of India, so a 1 am departure from Mumbai lands at about 6:50 am local time.
Do Indians need a visa for Thailand?
Not at the time of review. Indian passport holders get visa-exempt entry for tourism, though Thailand has been reviewing the permitted length of stay, so check before you go. Everyone must complete the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card online within 3 days before arrival.
Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang: which Bangkok airport is better?
Suvarnabhumi (BKK) handles full-service airlines and IndiGo, and has the Airport Rail Link into the city. Don Mueang (DMK) serves Thai budget airlines and is closer to north Bangkok. Fares into DMK can be lower, but add checked-bag fees before comparing, and never plan a tight connection between the two.
What is the cheapest time to fly Mumbai to Bangkok?
July to September, Thailand's rainy season, usually has the lowest fares outside the Independence Day long weekend. Showers tend to be short afternoon bursts. Expect higher fares from November to February and during Diwali, Christmas and the May–June school holidays.
