Bangkok Airways flies to and from Mumbai

With sizable India-Thailand traffic -- nearly 800,000 Indian tourists in 2010 and growing at 15-20 percent -- it makes good sense for boutique airline Bangkok Airways to start picking up customers directly from Indian cities.
A new service between Mumbai and Bangkok took off this month, with a frequency of six flights a week.
It's an Airbus 319 with 12 seats in business class and 106 seats in economy which departs from Mumbai at 1.50 a.m. and arrives in Bangkok at 5 a.m..
A return economy class ticket starts at Rs 12,500 and a business return is Rs 25,000 and upwards.
"Demands are there," says Bangkok Airways president Puttipong Prasarttong-Osot. "We expect to carry an average load factor of 60 percent."
