Two and a half weeks in Thailand in March, while Madrid is still deciding whether it's spring.
Hainan Airlines flies from Madrid to Bangkok from €461 return, with one stop in Chongqing. The dates fall in March 2027, and a checked bag is included.
✈️ The Deal
- From: Madrid, Spain
- To: Bangkok, Thailand
- Airline: Hainan Airlines
- Stops: 1 stop in Chongqing
- Price: €461–€464 return

The outbound stop in Chongqing is short (2h45), but the return stop is about 10 hours, so check China's transit rules for your passport before you book. Hand luggage and a checked bag are included. Other dates in February and March cost €488 or more.
💰 How far does your money go?
A caña on a Madrid terrace now costs €3-3.50, about the same as a full lunch in Bangkok. A bowl of boat noodles costs €1.50, mango sticky rice €2 and a large Chang beer from 7-Eleven €1.30. A one-hour Thai massage costs €8-10, less than a menú del día.
☀️ The Weather
March is the start of the hot season in Bangkok. Expect highs of 34°C, nights around 26°C and very little rain. Plan outdoor sightseeing for the morning and the evening, and spend the midday hours in a museum, a mall or a pool.
