the term "we apologize for your inconvenience" has gotten more play in thailand than anywhere else in the world! every time something goes wrong they post that nonsense!  I don't think they even know what it means! and not just the Thai's. if they really apologize, than lt them spring for a hotel room! and maybe a box lunch!

The London underground has signs apologising for your inconvenience just about everyday.

As far as I know, most service providers post the same message when things go wrong.

When the cost of a plane ticket is less than a hotel room dont think that will he happening.

As seen in the other thread the problem was fixed yesterday morning.

It was not a total power outage but a specific failure for the runway lighting and hangars.

Daytime flights would be no problem or have they lost all their electricity & the generators won't start ?

It was closed at 7.20 pm and re-opened at 0800, so nothing to do with daytime flights..
