Domestic travel destinations served by Bangkok Airways include Chiang Mai, Krabi, Lampang, Phuket, Pattaya, Samui, Trat, and Sukhothai.
Additionally, the airline has international service to Yangon, Myanmar; Phu Quoc, Vietnam; Hong Kong; Luang Prabang, Laos; Mumbai, India; Phnom Phen, Siam Reap, Cambodia; and, probably most interestingly, the Maldives.
To accommodate rising demand from the rebounding tourism industry, other small airlines are expanding flight frequencies on already-existing routes and introducing new routes. Shan
Qatar Airways increased the number of daily services to Thailand to seven, including four flights to and from Bangkok, on February 1 with the commencement of three flights per day between Doha and Phuket in southern Thailand.
China Airlines, based in Taiwan, began nonstop flights two weeks ago between Chiang Mai in northern Thailand and Taiwan.
Five airlines have started operating direct flights between Phuket in southern Thailand and the mainland since China opened its borders. These services will connect Shanghai, Nanjing, and Chengdu to Phuket.
