Cheap flights from Newcastle to Bangkok

Book well ahead if you need December dates or school holiday travel, because those periods are usually the first to rise. January is the lowest month in the dated price calendar, and October to April plus June to September are the months with shown prices. Midweek departures can be cheaper than weekend ones, but check the connection as well as the fare. Keep some flexibility on arrival airport and departure day, since the cheaper option may involve a longer total journey.

Accesrail appears among the named operators, so check whether every segment is a flight or one leg is ground transport. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and KLM Cityhopper both appear, as do Emirates, Etihad Airways, British Airways, Aer Lingus, Emerald Airlines, Lufthansa Cityline and HOP!, and the operating carrier can differ from the brand you book with. No option is nonstop, so every journey has at least one connection and possibly a change of terminal. Fare inclusions are not stated here, so verify baggage, meals, seat selection and change rules before you pay. If your itinerary combines operators, make sure the connection is protected and bags are checked through.

Arriving late in the day changes the journey into Bangkok: public transport may be reduced and taxi queues can be longer. Suvarnabhumi International is the larger of the two city airports, while Don Mueang International is the other, and they are far enough apart to be treated separately. Both lie outside the centre, so allow extra time for traffic. Into town you can use rail, bus or taxi depending on the airport and time; check which airport and terminal your ticket names before you leave. Watch for unofficial taxi offers, confirm the meter is used, and avoid tight connections if you need to transfer between the two airports.
