About

Thai Lion Air is a Thai low-cost carrier and associate company of Indonesia's Lion Air Group, one of Southeast Asia's largest airline groups. Headquartered in Bangkok's Don Mueang District, the airline launched operations in December 2013 and has grown to become one of Thailand's leading budget carriers.

Operating an all-Boeing narrowbody fleet of approximately 30 aircraft (Boeing 737-800 and 737-900ER), Thai Lion Air serves both domestic Thai destinations and international routes throughout Asia. The airline focuses on providing affordable air travel with a no-frills model where passengers pay only for the services they need.

Thai Lion Air is not a member of any global airline alliance. However, as part of the Lion Air Group, the airline benefits from the group's extensive network and operational expertise across Southeast Asia.
