The Guwahati–Bangkok travel corridor has demonstrated exceptional resilience, with steady flight bookings despite the powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck Bangkok on March 28, 2025. According to Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (LGBIA) officials, there has been no significant decline in traveller demand, showcasing strong bilateral tourism ties and effective crisis communication by Thai authorities. With 35 weekly flights operated by airlines such as Thai AirAsia, IndiGo, and Air India Express, the route remains a key international gateway for Northeast India, offering both direct and connecting services. Affordable fares starting from ₹10,784 have made Bangkok an accessible destination for leisure, medical, shopping, and wellness tourism. Rapid restoration of public infrastructure and clear advisories from Thailand’s Tourism Authority ensured that major tourist areas and hospitals remained fully operational, reinforcing traveller confidence. As summer approaches, the Guwahati–Bangkok corridor continues to attract Indian tourists, underlining Northeast India’s growing role in regional travel to Southeast Asia.
