Belavia, Belarus’ national carrier, will launch its first direct flights between Minsk and Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport from October 25, 2026, providing a non-stop connection between Belarus and Thailand for tourists and business travellers alike.
The carrier announced the new Minsk to Bangkok service will operate every Sunday using an Airbus A330-200 wide-body aircraft. The airline said the new route will eliminate the need for passengers to transfer through another airport when travelling between the two countries.
Flight B2799 is scheduled to depart Minsk at 3.10am and arrive at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport at 5.05pm. The return service, Flight B2800, will depart Suvarnabhumi at 7.05pm and arrive in Minsk at 1.50am the following day.
The launch of the direct Minsk to Bangkok route marks another positive development for Thailand’s tourism industry, which continues to attract travellers from around the world.
Belavia described Bangkok as the “Venice of the East,” highlighting the Thai capital’s culture, network of canals, cuisine and its reputation as one of Asia’s most vibrant cities.
The new service will also provide passengers from Eastern Europe with a more convenient travel option while supporting tourism, trade and future cooperation between Belarus and Thailand.
In a related development, the Minsk to Bangkok service was previously identified as one of the 11 new international routes expected to launch following the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Slot Conference in Bangkok from June 9 to 11.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) said 87 airlines had expressed interest in Thailand routes, with the winter 2026 to 2027 slot allocation expected to support new and expanded international services.
