British Airways resumed its service between Bangkok and London Gatwick after suspension in 2020, from 28th October 2024 initially operating three times weekly, increasing up to five times per week in January and February 2025, and four times per week in March 2025. The route is operated by a three class Boeing 777-200(ER).

The airline also recently announced its expanded codeshare partnership with Bangkok Airways, giving passengers, the opportunity to seamlessly connect onto five holiday destinations from it’s Bangkok hub.

Director of UK, Ireland & South Africa, Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) Ms. Sadudee Sangnil said “It is great to welcome British Airways back to Thailand, and just in time for the peak season. With so much to experience across Thailand the addition of these flights means we can welcome more people, seeking winter sun, to experience Thailand’s warmth, beauty, and culture. Connectivity to popular hubs such as Phuket is fantastic but we also welcome visitors to explore beyond and discover local communities, national parks and lesser known beaches. Chiang Mai, which has quickly recovered from recent floods, is also welcoming travellers again.”
