FAQs - booking Asia flights

  • What are some popular airports to fly in and out of Asia?

    Popular airports in Asia include Doha’s Hamad International Airport, Singapore Changi Airport and Tokyo Haneda International Airport (HND), which are some of the largest hubs on the continent. UK flyers tend to enjoy flying to Dubai International Airport or Hong Kong International Airport, both as a destination and a layover airport for destinations further afield, such as Japan and Australia.

  • What’s a good way to find cheap flights to Asia?

    If you want to find cheaper flights to Asia from the UK, you’ll generally find much cheaper tickets if you select a flight with at least one layover. For example, from London Heathrow Airport or Manchester Airport, you can grab flights to Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Airport (BOM) with Swiss Air or Lufthansa, while flights from Heathrow to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport with Malaysia Airlines stop in Kuala Lumpur; both are generally cheaper than the direct option. Furthermore, make sure you book it well in advance to possibly get a cheaper price.

  • What visa do I need to fly to Asia?

    Asia is a huge continent with many different countries with different immigration policies when it comes to UK citizens. Depending on the country you are visiting, it is likely you will need some sort of visa, with places such as China, Mongolia and Iran to name a few all requiring UK citizens to have an approved visa in their passport prior to arrival.

  • What options are there for direct flights to Asia?

    You can fly directly to most major cities in Asia, especially when flying with a national airline such as Thai Airways to Bangkok or Japan Airlines to Tokyo. You can also fly to Middle Eastern countries such as Jordan, United Arab Emirates and Qatar. However, these flights can prove to be expensive. A wise option is to find flights with a short layover, and this will reduce the price by a distance in some cases.

  • How long is the flight to Asia?

    An average direct flight from the United Kingdom to Asia takes 13h 47m, covering a distance of 5685 miles. The most popular route is London - Bangkok with an average flight time of 11h 25m.

  • What is the cheapest flight to Asia?

    The cheapest ticket to Asia from the United Kingdom found in the last 72 hours was £194 one-way, and £333 round-trip. The most popular route is London Heathrow to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi and the cheapest round-trip airline ticket found on this route in the last 72 hours was £441.

  • Which airlines fly to Asia?

    British Airways, Virgin Atlantic & American Airlines fly the most frequently from the United Kingdom to Asia. The most popular route is from London to Bangkok, and Thai Airways, Air Canada and EVA Air fly this route the most.

  • What are the most popular destinations in Asia?

    The next most popular destinations are Tokyo (17%) and Kuala Lumpur (8%). Searches for flights to Hong Kong (6%), to New Delhi (6%) and to Denpasar (5%) are also popular.

  • How does KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a given destination and date is likely to change within 7 days, so travellers know whether to wait or book now.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Asia

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Asia flight deals.
  • If you’re looking to visit various countries in Southeast Asia, convenient airport hubs to fly into include Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) and Hong Kong International Airport (HKG). Here you can find connections to other major cities in the region, such as Jakarta, Manila and Hanoi in Vietnam.
  • Be mindful about flying to countries in the Middle East during Ramadan, as you’re likely to come across much more expensive flights during this time. If you can be flexible on your travel dates and fly either side of the Ramadan period, you’ll save yourself some money.
  • If you want to travel around the Middle East, it’s wise to fly to a major hub like Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH) or Dubai International Airport (DXB), as these airports have great connections to other cities in the region.
  • Should you be planning on a backpacking trip around China, a great option to save some money would be flying to Hong Kong International Airport and starting your adventure there. This is the cheapest hub to fly to in the region.
  • If you’re looking to fly to the United Arab Emirates from London Heathrow Airport (LHR), it may prove cheaper to fly from alternative airports such as London Gatwick Airport (LGW). Also, arriving at Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) instead of Dubai International Airport tends to be a cheaper option.

Absolutely terrible delays for 3 hours changed seats after we paid an upgrade on both legs. It appears it’s up to us to request a refund after they down graded our seat. Never again !!

Absolutely terrible delays for 3 hours changed seats after we paid an upgrade on both legs. It appears it’s up to us to request a refund after they down graded our seat. Never again !!

The crew manager let the staff down by not ensuring special dietary requirements meal were coming in drips . The poor cabin crew did not stop . If organised the cabin could take a short break ..The cabin crew were AWESOME UNLIKE THIER TWO MANAGES!

They had superb boarding (started an hour before flight time). Timely pushback from them gate and an early arrival. Flight and service was very comfortable. I wanted to move my flight to an earlier one, only thing was there was no one at emirates in Heathrow to help. Had to call the call the center and pay to change. There were ample seats on the flight though

More leg room and comfortable seats at least for long flights

Very bad !! My confirmed ticket got canceled with out notifying me in hyd airport , crew didn’t help us out !! They were very rude!! They made me pay for the confirmed ticket again !! Can you please let us know how I can get the refund for the ticket I paid

Check-in counter at the airport took more than an hour of standing in queue with online checkin. And after entering the gate the flight delayed more than 30 mins.

Had the salad which tasted awfully spat it out but still got food poisoning 1 after running to toilet crew would not let me sit near toilets I was stuck in window seat

Lovely experience. I feel like travelling in Emirates.. The flights are always superb.Vegan food served was really good..

Cabin crew were not welcoming.was expecting excellent after traveling in Emirates from Houston to Dubai.

The flight was delayed in Jhb and I could have had some help in Dubai trying to get to my connecting flight to London

My seat that I booked over a year ago and some other passenger was sitting in it. They said they could not walk and they would not move. I was with my young kid and the crew did nothing to accommodate that. Just disappointed that the airline accepts that excuse from a passenger.

No separate queue for business class/platinum passengers. I had to stay in the long queue to board. I requested breakfast before landing, but the crew didn't offer, except a coffee with milk. No tea with milk was available. Had asked for cookies, but didn't receive them. The crew in the business class was not good in terms of service..

Excellent will be flying again in May with Qatar. to Botswana.

Crews are very rude and unhelpful. Cramped seats in economy. Foods are useless

The 2nd flight from Doha to Mumbai was not of international level expected while booking with Qatar

They ran out of some of the popular food items. 😞

The overall experience for the price we paid was mediocre. Nothing outstanding! Check in process was standard. Flight attendants could have been more well mannered. I found it rude when the attendant nudged me with the snack box to grab my attention when not looking. She could have said ,’excuse me’ instead. My son’s in flight entertainment was not working. The food was not great either. The snack options were not so great with kids in mind. Overall, might not travel qatar again.

Lovely aircraft and I flight entertainment. Good leg room. Full flight crew struggled a bit

You're like a poor man's Emirates Airlines. The Asian vegetarian food was awful. The entertainment selection was very limited and not contemporary at all. The seats were cramped. There was no plug for charging my phone (I refuse to plug into a USB port - A security risk). The plane itself was aged.

I liked the food and services provided. I think the seating should be updated cause it’s to congested for economic class.

I WOULD ADVISE NOT TO BOOK YOUR FLIGHT ON KAYAK. THEY SHOW BETTER FARES AND AFTER I BOOKED MINE, I FIND OUT THAT IT DID NOT INCLUDE LUGGAGE. i HAD TO PAY $800 TO CHECK IN MY BAGS.

Crew did not cooperate… I just asked water twice for one crew member and she didn’t get anything.. and when I asked other crew member he gave me water and he was not respectful.. I kept Hindu non veg meal chicken .. when I get my turn chicken was not provided and then they gave me veg paneer and green peas curry which I don’t like..

Very very bad service very tight seats never ever flying with Etihad again

The flight was small and was not cool very bad

Short travel duration. However, I had placed meal preference while booking my air ticket but was given vegetarian meal on board. Food was okay. Not so great. Didn't like Spanish eggplant, cold chickpeas salad. No hot soup was available. Everything cold cold only.

It feels like the seat did not have any cushion just plywood. The seats are so compact that I could not even move at all and I am slim. Just imagine someone else. Singapore Air and Emirates are far far better than this. Do not even travel for free. For a 12 hour flight sitting on a plywood is horrible experience and on top of that the person at checking counter at NY was worst and rude. Plus they charge arms and leg for everything. I think they would also start charging for belts and oxygen also soon. First and last time flying with Ethiad.

Check in was quick and gentleman was very nice and friendly, during flight crew members were polite and attentive, food wasn’t as it should’ve been. Entertainment section needed to be updated i.e add new movies

Dear Etihad Airways Customer Service, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep disappointment with my recent flight experience on Etihad Airways, which took me from India to NYC via Abu Dhabi. My flight details are as follows: [Flight Number] on [Date]. My overall experience was marred by a series of significant issues that I believe warrant attention and improvement. These issues include: Bad Conditions of Washroom: The state of the washrooms on the flight was far from satisfactory. They were inadequately maintained and lacked the level of cleanliness one would expect during a long-haul journey. Seating Space and Comfort: The seating arrangement left much to be desired. The seats were cramped, uncomfortable, and the legroom was insufficient for such a long flight. The seats did not recline as expected, making the journey quite uncomfortable. Cabin Cleanliness: The cleanliness of the cabin, including seats and tray tables, was not up to par. The lack of cleanliness impacted the overall comfort and satisfaction of passengers. Excessive Noise: The flight was notably noisy, with disturbances and loud noises making it difficult to rest or concentrate. The noise levels were considerably disruptive. Food and Catering: The quality and variety of meals served on the flight left much to be desired. Furthermore, there were issues with accommodating dietary restrictions, which is crucial for passenger satisfaction. Hygiene and Sanitary Facilities: The condition of the restrooms was subpar, and essential hygiene supplies were not adequately provided. This falls short of expectations for a long-haul journey. Overall Experience: Regrettably, the combination of these issues significantly affected my overall experience during this long flight, making it far from the comfortable and enjoyable journey I had anticipated. I understand that maintaining high standards on long-haul flights can be challenging, but I believe it's vital to bring these concerns to your attention in the hope that they can be addressed and improved upon in the future. As a loyal Etihad Airways customer, I had higher expectations for my journey. I kindly request that you take these issues into consideration and work towards enhancing the overall passenger experience on similar routes. Your attention to these matters is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and understanding.

Entertaiment center needed on that flight. I dont like to use my phone for entertainment.

Good leg room and I picked the seat in last 24 hours. Food was tasty with 2 full meals and first one smaller. The crew as expected courteous and on their toes serving extra water and items in between.

I sat in the last row of seats. On an 8 hour flight they allowed folks to stand and talk and drink in the back area near the toilets the whole time. They were at times loud and in the way. It was a little annoying. The crew on this trip were pretty mediocre and the plane was littered with trash when we disembarked.

I didn’t get to London or Amsterdam. They lost my connection flight . I was stuck in Madrid and they rerouted my flight to Austria where my son had to come and pick me up. To get to my destination and they lost my luggage and they’ve told me they can not find it very poor service so have no word for what happened

Boarding process needs to be improved. Business class passengers were told to stand in the economy line and vice versa.

Overall good, but the fact that there was no WiFi was a big deal for me. I am not used to having no WiFi during long flights. I always fly Delta-KLM and they never have had an issue with WiFi.

I asked for a wheelchair. I have a back health condition. I had to walk a lot

I travelled on biz class and f there is no water in the toilette to wash my hands I would expect to have this indicated somehow and not just finding out when I'm there expecting to be able to wash my hands and teeth. Also this is in general that it is always so rushy at the end of these kind of long flights. It is like we are sitting there for 9 hours and the last 1.5 hours just feels like I have time for nothing. Because food comes and at the same time we are close to destination everyone tries to pack their stuff and go to toilette and eat and everything :))) not that like I would know a good solution here I just wanted to raise this :)

Boarding = No one respected the boarding groups. The ground crew did nothing to enforce the boarding system. What is the point of being a Gold member when there are no benefits to that? Tired old plane

Almost 3 hour delay. First because the crew was late. Then a technical problem with the airplane.

Emergency row seat less comfortable than promoted. Restricted by emergency life raft storage.

My selected seat ending up being very uncomfortable both major flights. SFO to London and back. Seat arms did not go up so it was not like suggest by BA staff. On return flight my seat had a life raft barrier in front off me and large man beside me.

Very old plane. Broken tray tables n seats. Entertainment system super slow to operate and very little content.

The aircraft was very old, felt like poor economy seats. Entertainment was not working. Plug point was broken. For the coat of a business class ticket, I was very disappointed and dissatisfied. Crew on flight to Mumbai were good, on way back they were mediocre

The food was abysmal, entertainment system didn't work. seats were broken, toilets were unclean, I am going to write an official complaint because the experience was below average.

Flight got delayed by 3 hours but no compensation or anything

The crew on the flight was great and the food was good. The flight was on time and in fact arrived earlier than scheduled. The boarding process however was not great. I had a business class ticket but I had to stand in line for about 20 minutes at the gate before I could board. The bottleneck is that at the gate they check the boarding pass and passport all over again and there is no separate lane for business class and there were only 1 agent. The aircraft is very old . The entertainment system is antiquated and the programming is sub par.

I like to travel with Air India but this time flight is too late From Patna to Mumbai we have to loss 2 days In condition of flight delay please provide us lounge or etc

I did not expect from Tata group like this worst experience food is too worst

Gourmet Food served excellent. Toilet I'll maintained. Not value for money in Business class. Magazines may be supplied for time pass. Entertainment required.

Seats and trays broken , none of tvs working in flight, food and service poor , crews had attitude not friendly , my son business class seat got stuck they have to reset, how they got clearance to fly this aircraft? Never again

Things have improved still cleanliness of aircraft and maintenance of flights, still needs attention. Crew members have become more welcoming, which is indeed a welcomed change.
