Flying from Manila to Bangkok
In short
Philippine Airlines, Thai Airways International, Cebu Pacific and Philippines AirAsia fly nonstop from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in Manila to Bangkok. The 2,187 km flight takes about 3 hours 15 minutes. Filipino and Thai airlines both compete on it, which keeps fares competitive for holidaymakers, overseas workers and business travellers.
Cebu Pacific and AirAsia also land at Don Mueang
A number of airlines land at Suvarnabhumi (BKK). Cebu Pacific and Philippines AirAsia also fly to Don Mueang (DMK). The low-cost fares cover a cabin bag only, so add checked baggage when you book; Philippine Airlines and Thai Airways include it.
Ninoy Aquino terminal changes from 29 March 2026
Check your departure terminal before heading to the airport. Assignments at Ninoy Aquino International changed on 29 March 2026, when the international flights of AirAsia Philippines and AirAsia Berhad moved from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1. Traffic around Pasay is heavy, so allow plenty of time from Makati or Quezon City.
Philippine immigration also runs eTravel for departing passengers. Registration is free on etravel.gov.ph or the eGov PH app, and the official FAQ allows it within the 72 hours before departure.
TDAC and visa-free entry for Philippine passports
Every non-Thai passenger files the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before landing. It is free on tdac.immigration.go.th and opens three days before arrival.
Philippine passport holders are on Thailand's 30-day visa-exemption list, which replaced the 60-day scheme on 15 September 2026. Other nationalities should check their category on the Thai e-Visa portal or on our Thailand visa page.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Getting there
Flights land at both Bangkok airports: several airlines at Suvarnabhumi, and Cebu Pacific and Philippines AirAsia at Don Mueang. Schedules change by season, so check the flights for your dates in the search above.
About 3 hours 15 minutes in the air. The two airports are 2,187 km apart in a straight line; actual times vary a little by airline, aircraft and wind.
Both. A number of airlines use Suvarnabhumi (BKK); two use 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.
It depends on the airline, as the terminals at Ninoy Aquino are far apart. Check your ticket, and allow time for the terminal shuttle if you connect.
General
The clock moves one hour back on landing in Thailand (Thailand is UTC+7). Neither side uses daylight saving, so the gap stays the same all year.
Yes. Departing passengers register on the free eTravel system at etravel.gov.ph or in the eGov PH app; the official FAQ allows registration within the 72 hours before departure.
What's included
It depends on the airline. Cebu Pacific and Philippines 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
Philippine citizens are on Thailand's 30-day visa-exemption list from 15 September 2026; other nationalities should check the Thai e-Visa portal. Everyone files the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card, which opens three days before arrival.
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 Cebu Pacific and Philippines AirAsia, meals are bought online or on board; check the menu for halal options.
