What DMK to DPS looks like
The DMK to DPS sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Bangkok DMK to Bali DPS is a medium haul sector of 2,988 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 2,988 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 4h 19m.
Bangkok DMK is a mid sized airport in the network held here, 61 scheduled destinations and 218.3 departures a day. Bali DPS has 61 destinations and 211.1 departures a day.
Bali is one hour ahead of Bangkok all year.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on DMK to DPS from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.

Between them the two directions put about 20 departures a week on DMK to DPS, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.

When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 16 of them join DMK to DPS.
| Connecting at | DMK to hub, flights a day | Hub to DPS, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ho Chi Minh City SGN | 3.43 | 3.04 | 3,112 | 6h 07m |
| Jakarta CGK | 2.57 | 36.71 | 3,309 | 6h 13m |
| Singapore SIN | 2.71 | 18.43 | 3,117 | 6h 14m |
| Kuala Lumpur KUL | 11.43 | 14.57 | 3,212 | 6h 21m |
| Phuket HKT | 21.57 | 1.14 | 3,338 | 6h 24m |
| Hanoi HAN | 2.29 | 0.71 | 4,468 | 7h 27m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at DMK in the afternoon actually flies on.
16 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Ho Chi Minh City SGN, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 3 times a day.
Through SGN the routing covers 3,112 km against the 2,988 km nonstop track and takes about 6h 07m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 48m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Jakarta CGK at 6h 13m and Singapore SIN at 6h 14m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Bangkok, Bangkok BKK is 30 km away by great circle and carries 138 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DMK to DPS in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
