The return flight 9W 251 will depart Colombo at 2135 hrs (LT) and arrive Mumbai at 0015 hrs, providing onward connections to Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the Gulf, Bangkok, Singapore and Hong Kong in the Far East and to North America via Brussels and London Heathrow with direct and codeshare flights.
 
In addition, Jet Airways on Tuesday introduced a third daily direct service from its international gateway in Mumbai to Bangkok. 
 
The new afternoon service will provide seamless connectivity to guests from the airlines domestic network. This would make Jet Airways’ the only Indian carrier to operate three flights a day from Mumbai to Bangkok’s International Suvarnabhumi Airport as well as providing on ward connections to Ho Chi Minh from Bangkok.
 
This new flight from Mumbai to Bangkok, offers a convenient afternoon service, flight 9W 060 which will depart Mumbai at 1255 hrs (LT) and arrive at Bangkok at 1835 hrs (LT). On return, flight 9W 061 which departs Bangkok at 0855 hrs (LT) and arrives into Mumbai at 1155 hrs (LT) daily. 
 
Jet Airways guests from Mumbai will now have the option of connecting to Ho Chi Minh city and to several destinations of their choice in ASEAN Region while they transit over Bangkok. This new flight is conveniently timed to connect guests travelling from Jet Airways domestic network to Bangkok and beyond to ASEAN points.
 
Gaurang Shetty, Senior Vice-President - Commercial, Jet Airways said, “Jet Airways is delighted to introduce these additional frequencies from Mumbai to Doha, Colombo and Bangkok that will afford its guests the convenience of seamless travel and unmatched flight options.
