Bangkok to Seoul flight guide
Multiple airlines fly nonstop from Bangkok to Incheon International Airport (ICN), Seoul's main international gateway. Korean Air, Asiana Airlines, Thai Airways International and Air Premia lead the full-service side, with Jeju Air, Jin Air, Thai VietJet Air, Trinity Airways and Thai AirAsia on low-cost fares. The 3,666 km flight takes about 5 hours 5 minutes, and it is one of the busiest routes between Southeast and North Asia for tourists, workers and students.
Several carriers depart from Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and Thai AirAsia from Don Mueang (DMK). The low-cost airlines (Air Premia, Jeju Air, Jin Air, Thai VietJet Air, Trinity Airways and Thai AirAsia) charge for checked bags, meals and seat choice. Korean Air, Asiana and Thai Airways include them. Thai AirAsia's service was listed to end on 25 October 2026, and Eastar Jet was due to return to the route from the same date, so check the current schedule in the search above.
Many flights leave Bangkok late at night and land in Seoul early in the morning, which suits travellers who want a full first day but makes for a short night on board.
Suvarnabhumi is 27 minutes from Phaya Thai on the Airport Rail Link. Late-night departures may board at SAT-1, the satellite concourse linked to the main terminal by an automated train through a tunnel of about one kilometre.
For Don Mueang, the A1 bus from Mo Chit 2 and BTS Chatuchak and the A2 from Victory Monument cost 30 baht, and the SRT Red Line runs from Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal.
Incheon International Airport sits on an island west of Seoul. Korean Air and its SkyTeam partners use Terminal 2, and most other airlines use Terminal 1. Check the terminal on your booking, as the two buildings are several kilometres apart.
The AREX Airport Railroad runs from both terminals to Seoul Station. The Express train takes about 43 minutes from Terminal 1 and about 51 minutes from Terminal 2. The cheaper All-Stop train takes about 59 minutes from Terminal 1 and 66 from Terminal 2. Express trains run from early morning until about 22:48 from Terminal 1, so very late arrivals may need the all-stop service or a late-night bus.
Travellers from visa-waiver countries normally need a Korea Electronic Travel Authorization (K-ETA) before flying. Korea has exempted 22 countries and territories, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan and Singapore, until 31 December 2026; travellers from those places can still apply if they want to skip the paper arrival card. Others should check the K-ETA site or the nearest Korean embassy for their own rules.
Biman, US-Bangla and Thai Airways land at Suvarnabhumi from Dhaka (see our Dhaka to Bangkok flights page), the airport used by eight of the Seoul carriers. A Thai AirAsia flight from Don Mueang means crossing the city and checking in again, so leave at least four hours.

Practical points for booking this route.
Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and Don Mueang (DMK) are far apart. Low-cost flights on this route use Don Mueang, so match the airport to your hotel or connecting flight before you pay.
Air Premia, Jeju Air, Jin Air, Thai VietJet Air, Trinity Airways and Thai AirAsia charge for checked baggage. It is cheaper added online at booking than at the airport.

General
The clock moves two hours forward from Thai time (Thailand is UTC+7). Neither side uses daylight saving, so the gap stays the same all year.
Yes. Fly Dhaka to Bangkok on Biman, US-Bangla or Thai Airways, all of which land at Suvarnabhumi, then take one of the Seoul flights. 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, which needs a Thai visa.
The AREX express train runs nonstop to Seoul Station, and the all-stop train is cheaper but slower. Airport limousine buses serve most districts.
What's included
It depends on the airline. Air Premia, Jeju Air, Jin Air, Thai VietJet Air, Trinity Airways and Thai AirAsia are low-cost carriers whose basic fares include only a cabin bag, so add checked baggage when you book. The full-service airlines normally include a checked bag; the allowance is shown on your booking.
Visa & documents
Travellers from visa-waiver countries usually need a K-ETA before boarding, though 22 countries and territories, including the US, UK, Japan and Singapore, are exempt until 31 December 2026. Others should check the K-ETA site or a Korean embassy.
Cancellations & changes
Thai AirAsia's service is listed to end 25 October 2026 and Eastar Jet resumes 25 October 2026. Airlines publish these changes in advance, but dates can move, so check the schedule before you book.
Stay & facilities
On the full-service airlines, request a Muslim (halal) meal when you book or at least 24 hours before departure through the airline's manage-booking page. On Air Premia, Jeju Air, Jin Air, Thai VietJet Air, Trinity Airways and Thai AirAsia, meals are bought online or on board; check the menu for halal options.
