Cheap Flights from Qingdao to Bangkok — $111

Qingdao Liuting International Airport (TAO), now largely transitioned to Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport (TAO/TAO new), serves as the city’s main international and domestic gateway and typically acts as a hub for both full-service and low-cost Chinese carriers such as China Eastern, China Southern and Spring Airlines. Fares can be mid-range for domestic hops and competitive on select international routes. The airport is about 35–40 km from Qingdao’s central districts; travel options include the high-speed airport express and intercity rail (roughly 30–40 minutes), taxis or ride-hailing (35–60 minutes, fares varying with traffic), and regular airport shuttle buses (45–70 minutes, modest fares). Pros: modern facilities and frequent connections; cons: distance from downtown can add time and cost, and peak-period traffic may extend transfers.

Bangkok is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Suvarnabhumi (BKK) functions as the international hub, handling long-haul and many full-service carriers and usually offering the widest range of premium and connecting options; it sits about 30–40 km east of the city center and is reachable by the Airport Rail Link (25–35 minutes), taxis (30–60 minutes depending on traffic) and airport buses, with fares ranging from low-cost public buses to moderate rail/taxi fares. Don Mueang (DMK) is Bangkok’s budget and domestic gateway, typically used by low-cost carriers and regional flights; it’s roughly 20–25 km north of central Bangkok and reachable by shuttle buses, taxis and local trains in about 30–50 minutes. Pros: Suvarnabhumi is modern with extensive facilities and good international connectivity, while Don Mueang can be quicker for low-cost carriers and short-haul trips. Cons: both can be affected by heavy traffic to the city and transfers between them may take significant time and cost.

The cost of a one-way flight from Qingdao to Bangkok ranges from $108 (March 2026) to $147 (December 2026). On average, the ticket price is about $126–$132.
