BKK to CEI

Are there any significant differences between the airlines that fly between the two destinations? For example, should I favor a mainline carrier like Thai/Thaismile over a LCC like AsiaAir, VietJet, Nok?

I have used most of them and my typical criteria is to go for the lowest price option on such a short route.

And some are more notorious for delays than others - from what I hear the Vietnamese one is one of those.
Personally, I do not do LCCs so could not comment other than I would do TG/WE any day.

TG/WE and PG. For others depends on weight of checked in baggage, which could increase the total cost and importance of delay to you.

Thanks. I've booked TG/WE.

And now for CNX-HKT, which unfortunately is only nonstop serviced by FD. I think PG used to fly the route, but I don't see any availability and don't want to connect in BKK for TG/WE.

Thanks all.

I believe AirAsia, Bangkok Air and VietJet all fly nonstop CNX-HKT. Of course it may be cheaper to fly through Bangkok (DMK/BKK). ✈️
