• Flydubai will also offer you a flight directly from Dubai to Krabi about 4 to 5 times a week.
• You can also use flight options to reach Bangkok with Thai Airways or Etihad Airways (from Abu Dhabi instead of Dubai).
• So, if you want to plan your travel from the UAE to Thailand, you can utilize many direct flight options to cities (Bangkok, Phuket, and Krabi) in Thailand.

Frequency

• Generally, many travel lovers can easily get more than 30 direct flights every week from Dubai (DXB) to Bangkok (BKK) and Phuket (HKT).
• But if you want to visit Chiang Mai (CNX), you cannot use direct flights from Dubai. In this case, you have to first reach Bangkok and then take another flight from there to Chiang Mai. Still, you can choose the flight at your convenience.

Dubai to Bangkok

• You will reach Bangkok in 6 hours 10 minutes to 6 hours 30 minutes once you board the flight. Therefore, many of the UAE travelers find it easy to reach Bangkok. Emirates report saying that an average of 6 hours 15 minutes will be required to reach Bangkok.

Dubai to Phuket

• In fact, you should require 6 hours 20 minutes to 6 hours 40 minutes to reach Phuket. When you compare it with Bangkok travel time, it is a little bit longer with a 10-minute difference. Emirates and FlyDubai say an average of 6 hours and 30 minutes is required to reach Phuket.

Booking Tips

• Most importantly, airlines will start releasing flight tickets 12 months earlier. If you want to book the trip, at least you should lock the ticket 79 to 90 days earlier to get the best fares (especially for May or September).
• Wherever you plan your trip, never book the tickets on Saturdays because it will be a costlier time. If you want the cheapest flight tickets, book them on Tuesdays and Mondays.
• Finally, you can save money on flight booking by picking the option of early in the morning or late night flights.
