Thai airlines are betting on major fleet expansion after recovering from the pandemic
As the aviation sector recovers from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, six Thai airlines are fully committed to expansion. Thai Airways, Bangkok Airways, Thai AirAsia and other players are planning significant fleet expansions to meet growing demand for both domestic and international flights. With ambitious goals for the coming years, they hope to significantly increase their market share.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) reports that Chiang Mai, Hat Yai and Phuket were the most popular flight destinations from January to March this year. With different airlines offering up to 13 daily flights, ticket prices vary considerably. Thai Lion Air appears to be the cheapest option per kilometer, while Thai AirAsia charges the highest rates.
Thai Lion Air, a prominent player in Southeast Asia's aviation industry, has been offering an affordable and accessible flying experience since 2013. Headquartered in Bangkok, this dynamic low-cost airline connects travelers to an extensive network of domestic and international destinations. Thai Lion Air is known for its efficient service, modern fleet and focus on customer satisfaction, redefining the region's aviation industry.
Thai Lion Air will fly to Nan in the north of Thailand 4 times a week from this Friday. Two flights a day on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
I want to book a flight (one way) from Chiang Mai to Pattaya (U-Tapao) for the month of November. I have the most experience with AirAsia, which I think is a great airline. But now the flight hours do not seem opportune to me and I found Thai Lion Air's flight schedule better. Does anyone have experience with this low budget airline?
Thai Lion Air will operate two daily flights from Bangkok (Don Mueang Airport) to Nakhon Si Thammarat in southern Thailand from October 16. This route will be operated with a Boeing 737-800 (189 seats).
