Why are flights to Thailand more expensive than to Spain?

@Michael *******

korean i usually get 12 hours of wasted time lol but last 2 times got lucky only 4 hours. just enough time for the taco shack that serves tacos in chinese take out boxes with rice on the bottom :) japan ive seen they want you to change airports no way jose :)

@Brian ******

interesting. Ive always flown into Haneda with no change....but once i literally had to run to customs and the next gate be aise flight in from BKK was late....My Last trip I went through Hong Kong coming home for the first time. Place was huge.

@Chris *********

that flight is to Seoul.

you can log on to the Delta Airline website and use the departure and return dates if you care to check

@Chris *********

the point is they all stop somewhere. There are no nonstop flights from the US to BKK. We all know that any time you put down at an airport there’s another opportunity for problems.

@Dawn *********

in the nearly 20 years I've been going to Thailand I have touched down in Japan Korea Philippines China as a stopover I have never had an issue. Lucky?

@Chris *********

yeah, and who would have thought Spain, Portugal and part of France would have electrically gone down. We’re living in a different time. Baht back to the point. There are no nonstop flights out of the US to BKK.

@Dawn *********

yes those electrical issues as well as mechanical issues can in fact affect non-stop flights also

@Dawn *********

thank you for clarifying your comment about Delta flying to Bangkok Non-Stop which was not mentioned until I showed the Delta Airline website information. Just as an added note there are many airlines that travel to Bangkok with stopovers pretty much all year round and in addition some Airlines of those do have non-stop flights part of the year probably during High season. I am however not sure if this is the case with Delta Airlines

@Chris *********

I live here. Of course there are many airline that fly here. The US stopped non stop service to Thailand in 2012.

@Dawn *********

5555.... I live here too. I really like adopting the Thai people's way of communicating in a non-confrontational manner. An added point of interest for USA. The FAA upgraded Thailand's status from Level 2 to level 1 in February which is a precursor for non-stop flights in the future between USA and Thailand. Enjoy your stay here🙏

@Chris *********

LOL. You seriously think that is going to happen under Trump? I’d say you’ve been here too long.

@Dawn *********

I don't know where your head is at with some of these comments you are making I absolutely hate Trump and what he's doing to the world. Your assumption of the rest of the world thinks the way that you do is absolutely ludicrous and even more ludicrous believing that you are always right I merely made the suggestion that it is a possibility to have non-stop flights with Delta Air in the future because of the upgrade from FAA in Thailand international airports. I think you are a very rude and conceited individual exactly the type of individual is not fit into the life in Thailand. I will have no more conversation with you because of there is no point in talking to someone who has a very close mind it is beyond me how you are a top contributor with an attitude such as yours. You would do well adopt some of the tie away interacting with other people. We're done

@Dawn *********

I understand the original comment was the Delta Airlines did not fly to BKK the detail about non-stop flights was not mentioned. I was merely correcting the fact that Delta Airlines does fly to Bangkok.

@Dawn *********

there is a short layover in Seoul and then on to Bangkok. Information was taken off the Delta Airline website. There is also a two stop layover LAX Seattle Seoul and then on to BKK. They all have the DL prefix in the flight number indicating Delta Airlines they may be operated by a third party airline that it is all Delta Airline flight numbers and these were taken from the Delta Airline website.
