Operating from four major hubs—Don Mueang (DMK), Suvarnabhumi (BKK), Chiang Mai (CNX), and Phuket (HKT)—the airline is providing maximum connectivity across 41 routes to 25 destinations nationwide.
The projected passenger load factor for the festive period between 10-16 April 2026 remains exceptionally strong at over 85 percent, with routes in and out of Chiang Mai, Khon Kaen, Hat Yai, and Phuket remaining the top popular destinations. To ensure a smooth and hassle-free travel experience amidst the high volume of travelers, the airline strongly advises passengers to allow extra time for their commute to the airport and to utilize online check-in options in advance.
Mr. Phairat Pornpathananangoon, Chief Executive Officer of Asia Aviation and Thai AirAsia, states “We know how important the Songkran homecoming is for the Thai people. Even with the current global pressures on fuel prices, our commitment to our guests remains unchanged. We are operating with full readiness, ensuring that there are plenty of flights, affordable fares, and the reliable on-time service that you expect from AirAsia.”
