NokScoot to Launch Route from KIX to Don Mueang, Bangkok

Kansai Airports is pleased to announce that NokScoot, Thailand’s low-cost carrier based in Bangkok, will operate four weekly flights between Kansai International Airport (KIX) and Don Mueang, Bangkok, starting on Monday, October 29, 2018.

NokScoot was founded in 2014 as a joint venture between Singapore's no-frills airline Scoot and Thailand's Nok Air. Unlike other budget carriers that use narrow-body aircraft such as B737 and A320, the airline operates wide-body B777, a more spacious model, to serve mid- to long-haul routes.

The launch−NokScoot’s first flight service to KIX−is expected to attract more leisure and business passengers since Bangkok is a popular destination among Japanese.

Kansai Airports will continue to explore opportunities to expand its global network, including low-cost routes, to offer a more convenient and comfortable experience for all passengers.
