Mumbai: IndiGo has announced daily direct flights between Kolkata-Phuket, starting December 27, 2024. This will be IndiGo’s second direct flight to Phuket, following Delhi. The new route will expand IndiGo’s global network and cater to the growing number of tourists from India to Thailand.
The addition of this new route will enhance accessibility for tourists to Phuket from the eastern part of the country. The route will strengthen trade, commerce and tourism between India and Southeast Asia. Kolkata, India’s first metropolitan city and a regional hub for Indian tourists, is rapidly enhancing its overall infrastructure to meet the growing demand for travel from the region to Southeast Asia. This is also evident in the development of the Kolkata-Bangkok Highway, also known as the Trilateral Highway, an ambitious project aimed at connecting India, Myanmar, and Thailand.
