Thai AirAsia to Launch Bangkok - Buriram Flights; Fares from THB 390

Thai AirAsia is to launch flights between Bangkok's Don Mueang Int. Airport and Buriram in the north east of Thailand, on 2 April 2015.

To celebrate the new route, Thai AirAsia is offering a promotional fare of just 390 THB per trip available for booking until 8 March 2015 for travel from 2 April 2015 to 26 March 2016.

“Buriram was one of the places chosen for the Tourism Authority of Thailand’s “Cities That Can’t Be Missed” campaign as it has a variety of appeals. The city is home to world renowned stone castle Panom Rung Castle as well as Mueang Tum Castle, another well known landmark that draws many visitors each year. Buriram also has a more modern draw as it is a leading location for sporting activities with its Motor Sports stadium and leading Thai football team, Buriram United, who are both Thai Premier League Champions and considered major contenders in Asia. As a major sponsor for the football team, AirAsia is especially happy to create a connection between the team’s home city and the world’s travelers” said Mr. Santisuk Klongchaiya, Director of Commercial for Thai AirAsia.

Thai AirAsia has been consistently adding domestic flights to strengthen its network of connections in Thailand. Don Mueang-Buriram is the 4th addition since the beginning of the year after AirAsia began flights to the 3 provinces of Nan, Loei and Roi-Et simultaneously.

The new Don Mueang-Buriram route begins flying 2 April 2015, just in time for the Khao Panom Rung Festival.
