Belavia to launch twice-weekly Minsk–Phuket flights

Belavia Belarusian Airlines will begin twice-weekly scheduled flights between Minsk and Phuket on 29 October 2026, adding 2,248 inbound seats per month at Phuket International Airport.

The service will operate with an Airbus A330-200 configured with 281 seats. Flight B2787 is scheduled to depart Minsk at 22:00 on Thursdays and Sundays, arriving in Phuket at 12:05. The return flight, B2788, will depart Phuket at 11:30 on Mondays and Fridays and arrive in Minsk at 18:40.

The route is part of Belavia’s move from charter operations to scheduled services to Thailand. The airline also introduced a weekly scheduled Minsk–Bangkok service on 25 October, according to the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT).

TAT Executive Director for the Europe Region Suladda Sarutilavan said the direct Bangkok and Phuket services would create new opportunities in the Belarusian market and support longer stays combining coastal, cultural, wellness and nature-based experiences.

Belavia operates the Phuket flights with the same 281-seat Airbus A330-200 aircraft used for its Minsk–Bangkok service.
