IndiGo has launched a promotional offer for travellers heading to Thailand, even as conflict continues to escalate near the Thailand-Cambodia border. The airline announced that passengers can use the code “6ETHAI” to get up to 10% off on bookings to Thailand.
The discount comes at a time when travel to Thailand is open and operational, with flights to major cities such as Bangkok, Phuket, and Chiang Mai running on schedule.
A broader context fuels this timely offer. Thailand and Cambodia had agreed to an immediate, 'unconditional ceasefire', effective midnight on 28 July 2025, ending five days of the deadliest border clashes in over a decade.
Although, Thailand, on Wednesday said Cambodia had clearly breached the truce agreement aimed at stopping cross-border clashes, alleging that Cambodian forces carried out a night time assault using small arms and grenades.
The conflict claimed more than 30 lives and displaced up to 300,000 people across both nations before the truce, disrupting civilian life and trade in border provinces. International pressure, including a US trade threat from Donald Trump, who warned of reciprocal tariffs, played a key role in prompting the ceasefire. Trump later confirmed he had instructed his trade team to resume talks with both governments after the ceasefire was agreed.
The Indian Embassy in Thailand also issued a travel advisory for Indian nationals. Travellers have been asked to avoid non-essential movement near the border areas of Chanthaburi and Sa Kaeo provinces. Emergency contact numbers have also been shared for those in the region.
Amid this fragile calm, IndiGo’s discount offer provides an opportunity for travellers planning vacations to Thailand. Despite the recent unrest along the Cambodia border, travel to core Thai destinations remains open.
