Budget airline from Thailand to commence flights to Almaty at an affordable price
In exciting news for travel enthusiasts, Thai AirAsia X, a subsidiary of the AirAsia group, has announced that it will start direct regular flights from Almaty to Bangkok from December 1, 2023. This route will operate four times a week, specifically on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
The airline, which specializes in long-haul budget flights, is based at Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok and operates flights to several countries in Asia and beyond. With its affordable fares and additional services available for an extra charge, Thai AirAsia X is set to provide a cost-effective travel option for passengers.
For those planning a trip to Thailand, it's important to note that a digital arrival card (Thailand Digital Arrival Card, TDAC) must be filled out instead of the usual TM.6 arrival card. The total duration of stay in Thailand should not exceed 90 days within any 180-day period.
Kazakhstanis can take advantage of a visa-free regime for up to 30 days for tourist purposes when travelling to Thailand. The country remains one of the most popular destinations for Kazakhstani tourists due to its warm climate, developed infrastructure, and diverse resorts.
The news of this route's launch has been known since the spring of the year. Initially, the department announced that regular flights from Bangkok and Phuket to Almaty were planned for the 2025-2026 winter-summer season. However, Thai AirAsia X has accelerated its plans, making it possible for travellers to enjoy direct flights to Thailand from late 2023.
While no information about which airline will offer regular flights from Almaty to Bangkok starting December 1, 2023, is found in the provided search results, the launch of this route by Thai AirAsia X is a significant development in the travel industry. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new route.
