By ThePip Desk
IndiGo introduces new bi-weekly non-stop flights connecting Gaya and Bangkok from October 26, 2026, enhancing travel for pilgrims and tourists.
Good news for anyone planning a trip between India and Thailand! IndiGo is set to launch non-stop flights connecting Gaya and Bangkok, offering a fresh travel option for both pilgrims and tourists.
InterGlobe Aviation, operating as IndiGo, will introduce these bi-weekly services starting October 26, 2026. This strategic new route aims to significantly strengthen the airline’s growing India-Thailand network and create a direct air bridge.
Bridging Cultures and Heritage
The service creates a vital link between two destinations deeply connected by centuries of shared Buddhist heritage. It directly links Gaya, home to Bodh Gaya, one of Buddhism’s most sacred pilgrimage sites, with Bangkok, Thailand’s capital, a country known for its deep Buddhist traditions.
Bodh Gaya, featuring the revered Mahabodhi Temple and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, draws thousands of pilgrims and visitors from Thailand and globally each year. This new direct service provides a convenient and efficient travel option for pilgrims, leisure travellers, and tourists from both destinations.
Boosting Regional Tourism
Beyond individual travellers, the new route will significantly bolster international connectivity from Bihar. It is expected to actively support tourism, foster cultural exchange, and drive economic development across the entire region.
Ultimately, this move expands travel choices between India and Thailand, promising to benefit Bihar’s local hospitality, transport, and ancillary sectors by attracting more international visitors.
