Flying from Bangkok to Melbourne

  • Updated

In short

Both airlines fly nonstop from Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok (BKK) to Melbourne Airport (MEL): Jetstar and Thai Airways International. The 7,332 km flight takes about 9 hours 40 minutes. Holidaymakers returning to Victoria use it, and so do Bangladeshi students heading to Melbourne, which has a large Bangladeshi student population, with Bangkok as a natural stopover.

Jetstar extras versus Thai Airways inclusions

Fares are not like for like. Jetstar is a low-cost carrier whose basic fares include only a cabin bag; checked bags, meals and seat choice cost extra, so add them when you book. Thai Airways builds a checked bag and meals into the ticket, with the allowance shown on the booking. Compare the total price.

Finnair starts flying the route on 25 October 2026. Airlines publish these changes in advance, but dates can move, so check the schedule for your dates.

For a halal meal on Thai Airways, request a Muslim meal when booking or at least 24 hours before departure through the manage-booking page. On Jetstar, meals are bought online or on board, so check the menu.

Suvarnabhumi and the SAT-1 concourse

Both airlines fly from Suvarnabhumi; nobody flies this route from Don Mueang. The airport has one main terminal building plus the SAT-1 satellite concourse, reached by an underground automated train after security, so allow time to reach a far gate.

Same-day connection from Dhaka

Biman, US-Bangla and Thai Airways land at Suvarnabhumi from Dhaka (see our Dhaka to Bangkok flights page), and the Melbourne flights leave from the same airport, which keeps a same-day connection simple. Booking both legs on one Thai Airways ticket, where available, keeps you airside with your bag checked through. Two separate tickets mean clearing Thai immigration and checking in again, which needs a Thai visa.

Tullamarine Terminal 2, SkyBus and Australian visas

Melbourne Airport is at Tullamarine, about 25 km north-west of the city. International flights use Terminal 2. The SkyBus runs to Southern Cross station around the clock, and taxis and ride-share cars are also available.

Bangladeshi passport holders need an Australian visa arranged before travel. Entry rules change from time to time, so confirm them with the Australian Department of Home Affairs or the official visa site before booking.
