Cheap Flights from Bangkok to Chennai — $140

Bangkok is served by two main airports with different roles. Suvarnabhumi (BKK) functions as the international hub for most full-service carriers and long-haul flights; it’s located about 25–35 km east of central Bangkok and can take roughly 30–60 minutes by airport rail link or 45–75 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares varying from modest rail fees to mid-range taxi costs. Don Mueang (DMK) is typically positioned as the budget and domestic gateway, favored by low-cost carriers and many regional airlines; it’s around 20–25 km north of the city center and usually reachable in 30–60 minutes by bus or taxi at generally lower fares. Suvarnabhumi’s strengths are its extensive international connections and modern facilities, while Don Mueang can be cheaper and quicker for domestic or low-cost flights—however, travelers may face longer road times in peak traffic and might need to transfer between airports if connecting.

Chennai International Airport (MAA) is the city’s main international and domestic gateway, serving full-service carriers and several low-cost airlines; it typically handles long-haul flights to the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Europe alongside domestic connections. Located about 13 km south of the city center, transfer options include the suburban train (around 30–45 minutes), taxis and app-based cabs (30–60 minutes depending on traffic) and airport buses with fares usually cheaper than private rides. The airport can be relatively busy but offers extensive passenger facilities and onward connections; travelers may find it more convenient for international transfers, while those on tight budgets can expect economical public-transport options but variable journey times.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Bangkok to Chennai is $148 (June 2026), while the maximum is $154 (May 2026). On average, a ticket costs $151–$154.
