Blue Jasmine Train To Start In Thailand
The Blue Jasmine in Thailand will take passengers through gorgeous routes across the country. It will be operated by DTH Travel and will finally start its journey on November 16, 2025. This newly restored train aims to set a new standard for luxury train travel. With 10 carriages and three cabin categories–Classic, Premium, and Premium Suites–this train will ferry only 37 guests at one time. This ensures that the train is not overly crowded, making the journey smoother and hassle-free for passengers.
The journey on the Blue Jasmine train will be nine nights long. The itinerary covers Bangkok, Ayutthaya, Uthai Thani, Chiang Mai, and Sukhothai, before concluding back in Bangkok. The train service will start in November 2025. It will then run again on set dates in January, February, March, July, November, and December 2026.
