MUMBAI-<\/strong> IndiGo Airlines (6E) <\/a>and Thai Airways (TG) have dominated the Indo-Thai Market for years and are now facing competition from new entrants like Air India Express (IX) and AirAsia Group carriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The India and Thailand aviation market has always been looked upon as a country for leisure travelers and it’s somewhat true. Both countries have shown remarkable growth post-pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many Indian and Thai carriers have added more flights, and new routes, and opened up unexplored destinations. In today’s special data-driven article we will dive deeper into seats served by both country’s carriers between Indian cities and Thai cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, India is well connected with Thailand’s three major airports i.e. Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), Don Mueang Airport (DMK) in Bangkok, and Phuket International Airport (HKT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will compare the seats before 2024 and seats added in 2024 to show you the tremendous progress made this year in the Indo-Thai market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s start with Suvarnabhumi, the primary airport of Bangkok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
