Overview
- If approved, the scheme would run from September to November 2025 and provide one free round-trip domestic flight with a 20kg baggage allowance to eligible international air arrivals.
- The government would cover fares up to 1,750 baht for one-way tickets or 3,500 baht for round trips, with a total allocation for 200,000 tickets.
- Six carriers have agreed to participate: Thai Airways, Thai AirAsia, Bangkok Airways, Nok Air, Thai Lion Air and Thai Vietjet.
- Free tickets would be offered when booking international flights through airlines or online travel agents, and travellers who already booked trips would not qualify.
