Dubai to Bangkok flight guide
Emirates and flydubai fly nonstop from Dubai International Airport (DXB) to Bangkok, Emirates into Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and flydubai into Don Mueang (DMK). The 4,904 km flight takes about 6 hours 40 minutes. Thailand is one of the most popular holidays for the UAE's residents, and Emirates also carries long-haul passengers connecting in Dubai from Europe and Africa.
Emirates includes checked baggage, meals and entertainment. flydubai prices the seat alone and charges for bags, meals and seat selection. Families travelling in school holidays should compare the total with every bag added.
Emirates departs from Terminal 3 and flydubai mostly from Terminal 2. The Dubai Metro Red Line stops at Terminals 1 and 3; trains run from 05:00 to midnight Monday to Thursday and Saturday, to 01:00 on Friday night, and from 08:00 on Sunday. Terminal 2 has no metro stop, so a taxi is the usual way there.
Every non-Thai passenger completes the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before landing. It is free on tdac.immigration.go.th and opens three days before arrival.
UAE citizens are on Thailand's 30-day visa-exemption list from 15 September 2026, when the 60-day scheme ended. Most passengers on this route are expatriates travelling on other passports, so check your own category on the Thai e-Visa portal or on our Thailand visa page.
Emirates' wide-body aircraft may park at SAT-1, linked to the main terminal by an automated train through a tunnel of about one kilometre. Suvarnabhumi lies about 25 km east of central Bangkok; the Airport Rail Link reaches Phaya Thai in about 27 minutes and meets the BTS Skytrain, and Makkasan links to the MRT Blue Line. Metered taxis and Grab wait outside arrivals, and bus 389 runs to Pattaya from Exit 8 on the first floor for 130 baht.
flydubai passengers arrive in the north of the city. The A1 bus runs via BTS Chatuchak to Mo Chit 2 from 06:50 to 23:59 and the A2 via Chatuchak to Victory Monument from 05:00 to 22:00, each for 30 baht from Gate 6 of the international terminal. The SRT Red Line runs from the airport to Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal, where it meets the MRT Blue Line.
The Dhaka flights on Biman, US-Bangla and Thai Airways leave from Suvarnabhumi (see Bangkok to Dhaka flights). If you land at Don Mueang, minibus 555 crosses to Suvarnabhumi between 06:30 and 20:00 for up to 60 baht; leave plenty of time. Dubai also has its own nonstop flights to Bangladesh: see Dubai to Dhaka flights.

Getting there
Flights land at both Bangkok airports: one airline at Suvarnabhumi, and flydubai at Don Mueang. Schedules change by season, so check the flights for your dates in the search above.
About 6 hours 40 minutes in the air. The two airports are 4,904 km apart in a straight line; actual times vary a little by airline, aircraft and wind.
Both. Emirates uses Suvarnabhumi (BKK); flydubai uses Don Mueang (DMK). The airports are on opposite sides of the city, so check the code on your ticket.
Suvarnabhumi lies about 25 km east of central Bangkok. The Airport Rail Link runs to Phaya Thai in about 27 minutes and meets the BTS Skytrain there; Makkasan station connects to the MRT Blue Line. Metered taxis and Grab wait outside arrivals. Don Mueang is north of the city. The SRT Dark Red Line stops at the airport and runs to Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal (Bang Sue), where it meets the MRT Blue Line; airport buses and metered taxis cover the rest of the city.
Yes. Biman, US-Bangla and Thai Airways fly Bangkok to Dhaka from Suvarnabhumi. If you land at Don Mueang, allow at least four hours to transfer by road and check in again. On separate tickets you clear Thai immigration and collect your bag, so you need a Thai visa. See Bangkok to Dhaka flights.
General
The clock moves three hours forward on landing in Thailand (Thailand is UTC+7). Neither side uses daylight saving, so the gap stays the same all year.
Yes; see Dubai to Dhaka flights. Going via Bangkok is worth it if you want a few days in Thailand on the way home.
Emirates flights use Terminal 3. flydubai, which flies from Don Mueang, mainly uses Terminal 2. Your ticket shows the terminal.
What's included
It depends on the airline. flydubai is a low-cost carrier 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
UAE citizens are on Thailand's 30-day visa-exemption list from 15 September 2026. Expatriate residents travel under their own passport's rules, so check the Thai e-Visa portal. Everyone files the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card.
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 flydubai, meals are bought online or on board; check the menu for halal options.
