Air India Express flew its first non-stop Visakhapatnam–Bangkok flight on 27 October 2026, TAT said. The route runs twice a week. Flight IX0904 leaves Visakhapatnam at 11:35 and lands at Suvarnabhumi at 16:00; the return, IX0903, leaves Bangkok at 02:10 and reaches Visakhapatnam at 03:55, all local times.

As of 1 October 2026, 11 airlines flew between India and Thailand, with 427 flights a week and 83,517 seats in October, according to TAT. Thailand recorded 1,896,058 arrivals from India between 1 January and 26 October 2026.

Indian passport holders have been in the 30-day visa-exemption group since 15 September 2026, so this route needs no visa for stays up to 30 days. Our entry checklist lists what to carry at the border.
