So you are planning a trip to Thailand. And want to know how long from India to Thailand travel time takes.
You are at the right place. After reading this blog you will have your answer and some other important tips to know before your trip. Like immigration, currency exchange Thailand’s airports, etc.
How to travel to Thailand from India?
To reach Thailand from India you have to take a flight from a major city like Mumbai or Delhi’s International Airport.
If you live in a tier 2 city then first you need to reach Mumbai or Delhi from your city and then take a ‘Direct flight’ to Bangkok city. (Thailand’s capital city) or you can take an indirect flight which takes longer to reach your destination.
I am from Ahmedabad. So when I was going to Thailand, I took a flight from Ahmedabad airport to Delhi airport.
After arriving at Delhi’s International airport at night our flight was at 2:30 AM midnight. We traveled through Thai Airways.

India to Thailand travel time. How Long Does it Take?
An average direct flight from Delhi International Airport to Thailand’s Suvarnabhumi International Airport takes 4 hours and 14 minutes!
In case of flight delay, it may take longer. So approx 4 to 5 hours it is.
our flight from Delhi airport took off at 2:30 AM and we reached Bangkok around 7:30 AM. So I can say from my experience that 4 to 5 hours for direct flights is appropriate from India to Thailand travel time.
What to expect when you reach Bangkok?
When you reach Bangkok, before you land you will be given an immigration form to fill out. Which you need to submit to the immigration officer. So fill out the form carefully. Don’t worry it’s an easy form. You just need your passport to fill out this form.
All the required details are in your passport so open your passport and fill out the form. Simple! 🙂
