[HD video below] Thai AirAsia X is to increase flights between
Bangkok Don Mueang (DMK) and Seoul Incheon (ICN) from one flight
per day to double daily from 25 October 2015.
“Seoul and Bangkok continue to be a very
popular destination for both Thai and Korean travelers. Since our
inaugural flight to Seoul in June 2014, we have reached an average
load factor of 83%. There is great potential for this route to
continually grow and in order to meet this demand, we are now
launching a second daily flight so passengers will have more
options and flexibility to choose their travel time,” said Nadda Buranasiri,
Chief Executive Officer of Thai AirAsia X.
Passengers who wish
to purchase additional attraction or transportation tickets
onboard Thai AirAsia X, the airline offers a Sky Ticket service.
Passengers traveling to Seoul Incheon International Airport will
be able to conveniently purchase one-day pass tickets to visit
Lotte World Adventure Theme Park, or purchase a limousine bus
service from Incheon International Airport to Cheongnyangni
Station or Myeong-Dong Station.
For those who wish
to travel to Seoul from other cities in Thailand, such as Chiang Mai, Krabi, or
Phuket, AirAsia offers a seamless Fly-Thru transit experience.
Passengers can use this service to check-through their baggage and
conveniently pick up their items at the final destination.
It is our
great pleasure to play a role in contributing to more visitor
numbers for both Thailand and South Korea and we look forward to
continue doing that with our accessible low fares. During
January-May 2015, 201,480 Thai visitors traveled to South Korea,
an increase of 1.4% from 198,654 compared to the same period last
year. Meanwhile 550,699 Korean visitors traveled to Thailand
during January-May 2015, an increase of 18.8% compared to the same
period last year”.
Tickets on the new daily flight which will
commence on 25 October 2015 are available from today.
