The direct flights on the Bangkok-Tbilisi-Bangkok route carry passengers twice a week between October 8-29.

The Ministry said the flights would also be operated in the winter season, while Deputy Economy Minister Mariam Kvrivishvili noted resuming the flights between the two capitals would contribute to ties between civil aviation and tourism sectors of the two states.

Therefore, we will actively continue to work to bring airlines from this and other Asian regions to the aviation market of Georgia", Kvrivishvili said.

Thai AirAsia X operated direct charter flights to Georgia during the winter navigation season of 2019-2020.
