The route is served by Thai AirAsia and Thai Lion Air.", "methodology": "Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.", "toolsUsed": [ "flight_schedule" ] }, "q1": { "question": "Are there any direct flights from Denpasar to Bangkok?", "answer": "Yes, AirAsia (FD) and Thai Lion Air (SL) fly nonstop from Denpasar (DPS) to Bangkok Don Mueang (DMK), both operating daily.

We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. Carrier service, flight times and distances for this route come from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We report the days of the week and the departure times each carrier operates. The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time, given both per carrier and across all carriers on the route; where a schedule does not publish an elapsed time, it is derived from the scheduled departure and arrival times converted to UTC. Outbound and return times are computed by the same method, so the difference between them is directly comparable and reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in derivation. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two specific airports named, so an actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer. Where shown, on-time departure and arrival rates and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; where a typical fare is shown, it comes from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.", "toolsUsed": [ "route_airlines", "flight_schedule" ] }, "q3": { "question": "What are the ground transportation options in Bangkok?", "answer": "At Bangkok's Don Mueang Airport (DMK), the main ground transportation options are metered taxis, public buses, and an airport shuttle bus that connects to Suvarnabhumi Airport. Metered taxis are the most used and generally the fastest direct option to central areas like Siam, taking 30–60 minutes and costing about THB 200 plus a 50 baht airport surcharge and any tolls. Public buses (e.g., No. 29 to Siam) are the cheapest at around THB 18 but are slower, while the free airport shuttle within DMK runs every 15–20 minutes from 06:00–22:00 and the DMK–BKK inter-airport shuttle runs every 30 minutes from 05:00–24:00. There is no rail link directly at DMK, so mass transit requires a short bus or taxi ride to Mo Chit BTS/MRT station (about THB 150 by taxi).

Public buses like Trans Sarbagita are the cheapest way to reach the airport area, though they may require a short transfer or walk to the terminal.
