India Global Business Staff

NokScoot, a Thailand-based low-cost carrier (LCC), marks its entry into India with the launch of its first non-stop flight connecting New Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport and Bangkok Don Muang International Airport. While there are already a few airlines operating on the Delhi-Bangkok route, NokScoot projects that the growing demand for leisure and business travel between the two cities, can support the big capacity it is injecting onto the route. Passengers travelling between these two great cities will soon be able to experience the deferential hassle-free service and on-time performance of NokScoot. Giam Ming Toh, Deputy CEO of NokScoot, said: “NokScoot believes these flights will appeal to both leisure and business travellers travelling between Delhi, the fourth most populous urban area in the world, and Bangkok. Delhi, as the biggest air hub in India, is also very convenient for those making connections to and from most domestic destinations around India. “Following the launch of the Delhi service, NokScoot plans to further spread its wings in India with another destination in the first half of 2019.” From its Bangkok Don Mueang International Airport base, NokScoot operates regular flights to Nanjing, Qingdao, Shenyang, Tianjin and Xi'an in China, Taipei in Taiwan, as well as Tokyo and Osaka in Japan.
