Flights to Thailand

From bouncing neon cities to serene tropical islands and exquisite temples, Thailand is brimming with world-famous destinations.

While its white-sand beaches and dazzling seas are an alluring prospect, many begin their exploration of Thailand by diving into the beautifully chaotic metropolis of Bangkok. Wander the capital city’s pulsating streets to discover vibrant marketplaces and majestic temples overlooking the boat-filled Chao Phraya River. When early evening rolls in, ascend one of its towering skyscrapers to find luxurious rooftop restaurants affording jaw-dropping views of the city skyline.

Phuket is also among Thailand’s most revered destinations, with the southern province boasting an enticing combination of tranquil palm-lined beaches and a thronging nightlife. Spend days admiring colourful 19th century buildings in Phuket Town or stroll along the idyllic sandy expanse of Karon Beach.

Just north of Phuket, you’ll find the achingly beautiful Khao Sok National Park. Venture out into a gorgeous inland lake on a traditional longtail boat to find quaint floating resorts backdropped by verdant mountainside.

For staggering natural beauty, Krabi is among Thailand’s most esteemed provinces. From here, you can embark on unforgettable boat tours to charming tropical islands that are scattered through Phang Nga Bay’s crystal-clear waters. On the mainland, Krabi is defined by craggy limestone cliffs that punctuate its lush green horizon. You’ll spot monkeys leaping through thick vegetation, which subsides momentarily to present turquoise lakes and glorious beaches – none more so than the world-renowned Railay Beach.

The Phi Phi Islands, accessed by boat from Krabi or Phuket, are among Thailand’s most sought-after destinations. Ko Phi Phi Don, the largest in the archipelago, poses a dreamy blend of spectacular beaches and rugged, jungle-clad terrain. Thailand has a wealth of these tropical island escapes. Head to the picture book havens of Ko Lanta and Ko Tao for snorkelling in marine-rich waters, or retreat to a luxury resort on the equally spellbinding Ko Samui.

In northern Thailand, Chiang Mai is another gem. This characterful city is dotted with temples and historical sites, and is on the doorstep of the ethereal Doi Inthanon National Park – home to the nation’s tallest mountain.

Pad Thai is a must-try dish during your Thailand trip. You’ll find this tantalising blend of meat, vegetables, scrambled egg and rice noodles being expertly stir-fried at the countless street food markets across the country. For dessert, indulge in a portion of mango sticky rice, an unexpectedly tasty and moreish pairing.
