Thai AirAsia will temporarily suspend all international flight services in accordance with travel restrictions being enforced by various governments and relevant health authorities in response to the Covid-19 outbreak.

 

The suspension will only affect international services operated by Thai AirAsia (FD) from March 22 to April 25.

 

All domestic flights and services are still normally in operation, the airline said.

 

The options below are available for guests with bookings with Thai AirAsia booked prior to or on March 20.

▪︎A one-time flight change to a new travel date on the same route within 180 calendar days from the original flight date without additional cost, subject to seat availability;

 

▪︎Retain the value of the fare in AirAsia Big Loyalty account for future travel with AirAsia. The online credit account is to be redeemed for booking within 365 calendar days from the issuance date for travel with the airline. The actual travel dates can be after the expiry date as long as the flight schedule is out.

 

▪︎Obtain a full refund of the amount equivalent to the original booking.

 

Affected guests will be notified directly via their registered member email account, as well as via an SMS notification.

For information at this moment (Sunday 22 March 2020):-

Now that Air Asia no longer flies into Siem Reap (Cambodia) from Don Meaung (DMK), Thai Smile still has two daily flights from Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK).

WE 588 08:35 from BKK returning from REP 09:25 WE 589

WE 590 18:40 from BKK returning from REP 20:45 WE 591

These are currently the only two flights between Bangkok and Siem Reap.

Just stuck my application for a 'credit account' in for 4 flights next month.

Flying from CNX-DMK-PNH and back.

 

The CNX-DMK rtn flight seems problematic as it's still on, but I really don't have any reason to stay in Bangkok for a week.
