Beginning in July, it will go to Bangkok twice daily.
Doha-Bangkok Airbus A380 flights were not available for booking on Qatar Airways from July to October as per the most recent schedule filing. Now that the A380 service has been expanded, it is being offered twice daily instead of only once.
Bangkok-bound Qatar Airlines A380s
10 517-seat A380s total, seven of which were in use as of April 3rd by the national airline of Qatar. The double-decker quadjet will be used on two of the airline’s four daily flights to Bangkok, according to the company’s website, OAG, and Cirium. They used the Boeing 777-300ER exclusively up to the weekend of April 1.

Do not be duped. Bangkok is served by an A380 twice daily by Qatar Airlines. Prior to dropping to daily service on March 25th2, 2023, it ran at such frequency to Thailand. From October 2015 to June 2016, it ran up to three times each day; this frequency was briefly restored in 2022. Thailand flights from June to October
Its June–October schedule, with all timings in local time, is shown below. Due to the two A380 flights, Qatar Airlines currently offers 1,785 departure seats to Bangkok (double for both directions), up from the originally anticipated 1,502, for a 19% increase.

Eight A380 flights leave Bangkok each day.
Between July and October, Bangkok will be served by a total of eight daily A380 flights operated by Qatar Airlines, Emirates, and Asiana (seven from October 30th). This places Bangkok as the sixth-most-served airport in the world, after Dubai (what a surprise! ), London Heathrow, Singapore, and Sydney, according to data from Cirium.
They all operate from Suvarnabhumi on August 13th, the day of the snapshot. The flight number (742) of Asiana is extremely appealing.
