Other information

What is the cheapest month to fly to Thailand?

In general, May is the cheapest month to fly from South Africa to Thailand. Due to it being the ‘off-season’ during this time, you can expect flight prices to be around R10 652. If you aren’t able to travel to Thailand during the month of May, then flying in September is also cheap. Prices for this month can be found on momondo for an average of R10 916.

What is the cheapest day to depart on your flight to Thailand?

The cheapest day to depart on your flight to Thailand is on a Wednesday when prices can be found for as low as R12 063. This is often the case because there is less demand to fly during this day of the week. On the other hand, Saturday is the most expensive day to depart from South Africa because it is more convenient for both business and leisure travellers. As a result, prices tend to be around R12 663.

What is the cheapest time of day to depart on your flight to Thailand?

In the morning is the cheapest time of day to fly from South Africa to Thailand when you can find flight prices for as low as R11 844. Flying to Thailand in the morning is an ideal time because this is during off-peak travel hours. Flights to Thailand are more costly in the afternoon, with an average ticket price of R13 608. Departure times in the afternoon fall within the peak daily travel times, which is why tickets can be more expensive.

How far in advance should I book a flight to Thailand?

You are more likely to see cheaper flights to Thailand from South Africa when booking weeks ahead of your departure date. In general, you can expect to find flights to Thailand for around R12 034 when searching weeks before you fly. However, flight prices might be lower outside of this timeframe. For example, people recently found flights to Thailand from South Africa for as low as R11 162 on momondo.
