Bangkok is served primarily by two airports: Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and Don Mueang (DMK). Suvarnabhumi functions as the city’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers as well as many regional airlines; it is usually positioned as the premium gateway. Don Mueang typically caters to low-cost and domestic operators, so fares there can often be perceived as cheaper. Suvarnabhumi sits about 30–35 km east of central Bangkok, with the Airport Rail Link taking roughly 25–40 minutes to Phaya Thai for fares around 45–70 THB; taxis and ride-hail trips are common and can take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Don Mueang is nearer to the northern suburbs, roughly 20–25 km from downtown; buses and shuttle vans connect to Mo Chit and central areas in about 30–60 minutes for modest fares, while taxis may be quicker but variable with traffic. Pros: Suvarnabhumi usually offers more international connections and modern facilities; Don Mueang can be more convenient and budget-friendly for low-cost carriers. Cons: Both can be affected by heavy Bangkok traffic, and transfers between the two airports typically require extra time and planning.

John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s primary international gateway and a major transatlantic and transpacific hub, typically serving legacy carriers like American, Delta and international airlines alongside many global alliances. Fares can be competitive for long-haul travel but often reflect peak-season demand. The airport sits about 15–20 miles (25–32 km) southeast of Midtown Manhattan; typical transit options include the AirTrain plus subway (about 45–70 minutes, fares around the combined AirTrain/subway cost), airport shuttles or taxis (45–75 minutes, meter or flat-rate fares), and ride-hailing services. Pros: extensive international connections and multiple terminals; cons: can be busy with longer transfer times and occasional congestion. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) generally functions as New York’s short-haul and domestic-focused airport, commonly used by domestic carriers and some low-cost airlines for regional flights. It’s closest to Manhattan — roughly 8–10 miles (13–16 km) from Midtown — so travel times are often shorter but can vary with traffic. Transit choices include buses and airport shuttles (30–60 minutes; low fares), taxis and ride-hailing (20–40 minutes; higher cost in congestion), and increasingly improved shuttle and rail links in redevelopment phases. Pros: proximity to Manhattan and frequent domestic schedules; cons: more limited international service and can be crowded during peak hours. Newark Liberty International (EWR) serves as an important international and domestic hub, particularly for United Airlines and several international partners, and is often positioned as a competitive alternative to JFK. It’s located in New Jersey, about 16–20 miles (25–32 km) from Midtown Manhattan; common transfers include the AirTrain to NJ Transit or Amtrak (30–50 minutes, variable fares), airport shuttles, taxis and ride-hailing (30–60 minutes, tolls and traffic can affect cost). Pros: strong United hub connectivity and frequent transcontinental routes; cons: being across the river can mean added time at borders and variable travel costs into Manhattan.

In different months, ticket prices from Bangkok to New York vary: minimum — $417 (November 2025), maximum — $468 (March 2026). Typically, the flight costs $446–$461.
