TLDR : Answer Summary

When entering Thailand visa-free with AirAsia, you may be asked to show a departure ticket when checking in, as the airline often verifies this to avoid boarding issues. Although it is rare to be asked upon arrival, having an exit ticket is generally recommended to ensure compliance with visa regulations.

Visa exempt entries require an exit ticket but whether you will be asked to show it is another matter.

Very rare you'll be asked on arrival. The vetting is usually carried out by the airline when you're checking in. You may (or may not) be denied boarding so best to check with AirAsia

Check with the airline. They might not let you board if you don't have one.
