Most of them make one layover in Singapore, and flight times can vary from around 13h to just over 23h, depending on how long the layover takes. You can also depart from Avalon Airport (AVV), which operates two-stop routes to Bangkok. These flights don’t add a significant amount of time compared to one-stop flights out of Tullamarine Airport, and there also isn’t much of a cost difference, so you can quite happily fly out from there. Arriving in Bangkok, you’ll land at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), which is one of the largest in Southeast Asia. It’s about 30 km from the city centre, and you can catch an Airport Rail Link train to get there.
