CAAT reports domestic flight prices for 2027 New Year period

The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) has released a survey of domestic airfares for the 2027 New Year festival. The study, based on data from November 2, 2026, covered eight major routes, including Bangkok to Phuket, Chiang Mai, Hat Yai, Trang, Chiang Rai, Khon Kaen, Udon Thani, and Nakhon Phanom.

For Full Service Carriers (FSC), the average minimum price surveyed was 3,566 THB, while the average maximum was 5,028 THB. The Bangkok–Phuket route recorded the highest prices, followed by Bangkok–Chiang Mai. For Low Cost Carriers (LCC), the average minimum price was 2,532 THB and the average maximum was 3,512 THB. Phuket and Chiang Mai also showed higher prices compared to other routes in this category.

CAAT noted that while some affordable tickets remain available, budget options are limited and tend to decrease as travel dates approach. The authority recommends that passengers plan and book their flights in advance to secure better prices and flight options during high-demand periods.
