Drukair currently operates flights to Paro International Airport from Bangkok (daily), Kolkata (daily), Kathmandu (daily), Delhi (5× weekly), Singapore (twice weekly), Dhaka (thrice weekly), Guwahati (thrice weekly), Dubai (twice weekly), and seasonally from Gaya and Bagdogra. Schedules change periodically — confirm the latest with Druk Asia or Drukair directly.

Yes. Drukair operates twice-weekly non-stop flights between Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) and Paro International Airport (PBH). These are among the most popular Drukair routes for Southeast Asian travellers. Read our full Singapore to Bhutan flight guide for schedules, check-in tips and seat recommendations.

Yes. Drukair flies daily between Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and Paro (PBH). Bangkok is one of Drukair's busiest hubs and a common connection point for travellers from Southeast Asia, Australia and Europe. Read our Thailand to Bhutan flight guide for full details.

Flight times vary by origin: Bangkok to Paro is approximately 3 hours 30 minutes; Singapore to Paro is around 4 hours 30 minutes (including a technical stop); Kathmandu to Paro is about 1 hour; Delhi to Paro is around 1 hour 45 minutes. Flights from Singapore and Bangkok may include a short technical stop in Guwahati or Bagdogra where passengers typically remain onboard.

Flights from Singapore or Bangkok often make a 30–45 minute technical stop in Guwahati or Bagdogra in northeast India for refuelling. Passengers usually remain onboard during this stop, though a brief security check may occasionally be conducted. This stop does not require a separate Indian visa if you stay on the aircraft.

Email us at info@drukasia.com with your preferred point of departure and travel dates. As Drukair's official General Sales Agent (GSA), we check availability, advise on routing, and secure the best applicable fare — including seasonal discounts of up to 25%. We can hold your reservation for up to 30 days at no cost while you finalise your itinerary.

For peak periods — festival seasons, long weekends, school holidays, and Bhutan's tshechu season (spring and autumn) — we recommend booking at least six months in advance as seats fill quickly. For flexible mid-week travel, one to two months is usually sufficient. We can also place you on a waitlist if your preferred flight is full.

Yes. As the official GSA for Drukair, we can reserve your tickets for up to 30 days — sometimes longer if your travel dates are far out — giving you time to finalise your Bhutan itinerary and visa before committing to full payment.

You will need a valid passport (minimum six months validity), a confirmed Bhutan tourist visa, and your boarding pass. Critically, your Bhutan visa clearance letter must be printed — digital copies on a phone are frequently not accepted at Drukair check-in counters. If connecting through India on separate tickets, an Indian transit visa may also be required.

Economy class passengers are entitled to 30 kg of checked baggage; business class passengers may check 40 kg. Cabin baggage is limited to 5 kg. Note that the overhead bins on Drukair's Airbus A319 are smaller than those on most wide-body aircraft, so packing light is advisable.

For inbound flights to Paro (from Bangkok, Delhi or Kathmandu), the left-hand side (A seats) offers the best Himalayan views. On outbound flights from Paro heading west or southwest, the right-hand side (F seats) is preferable. Sit forward of Row 7 or behind Row 15 to avoid wing obstruction. Online check-in opens 72 hours before departure — use it to secure a window seat.

Yes. Drukair has maintained an excellent safety record for over three decades. Landing at Paro requires a specialised manual visual approach through mountain terrain, and only a select group of specially certified pilots are authorised to fly the route. Flights operate under Visual Flight Rules (VFR), which means heavy cloud or strong winds can cause delays or diversions — always build a buffer day into your itinerary.

Drukair operates economy and business class cabins. Fares vary considerably by season, route and booking lead time, and can include discounts of up to 25% for early purchase. Use the search tool above to check current pricing for your route, or contact our team for a personalised fare quote.

Druk Asia accepts both international bank transfer and major credit cards. We will provide a full payment breakdown and secure payment instructions after confirming availability for your preferred dates. See our payment options page for details.

Yes, but seats sell out extremely fast during peak festival periods — particularly the Paro Tshechu (spring) and Thimphu Tshechu (autumn). Drukair does not significantly increase capacity during these periods. We strongly recommend booking at least six months ahead for any festival travel.
