It probably escaped from one of the Thai Airline crew's lunch.

Gather that now.

Same as sitting in Airconditioned train sleeper carriage Bkk-Hatyai? Night brings out hundreds of creepy crawlers which thrive on garb.

Last flight on Thai 25 years ago when our cockpit window developed a crack, and we returned to Bkk after being airborne for one h.

Though Thai hosted us at the Sheraton, the experience stayed unfortunately with us.

The word in question: Overall cleanliness

 Thai Airways apologised after complaints from The HiSo passengers claimed the cockroach had not paid for its ticket and really ought to have been made to sit in economy anyway but insisted they would prefer to sit near to the cockroach rather than sit next to poor people.

It’s not impossible to catch them from a headrest etc. though it is uncommon. You can’t be certain in any case.

I can be as certain as certain can be, there's nowhere else I could have got them from.

Just crush it with the foot, hardly a news story.

If their are eggs, crushing it will spread the eggs to diff areas especially on carpets.  Never crush with shoe

Did Peter fly business like the other Thai freeloaders?

[Dumbastheycome]

In reference to the original insect I am wondering why so little has been said about the high possibility this cockroach came aboard in hand luggage on that flight? Is it for fear hand luggage will in future be  dipped and  fumigated  before boarding? Not only but also to allay fears of headlice all travelers will be similarly passed  through a livestock pressure sprayer? Could give greater meaning to "cattle class".?

Ryanair would have found a way to surcharge Mr Roach.

[natway09]

It's a cockroach for Pete's sake all you Thai bashers.

What about the middle eastern airline that had 2 big rats & a nest of babies in the galley.

As to the head lice off the seat,,, it is rubbish ,,, so show me some proof or stop knocking

[CanuckThai]

Thai airlines unrolled their new streetfood menu plan?  Wow...that was fast, it was announced only this week.  This will help the new CEO crack the top 5 global airlines in no time.

I used to highly rate Thai Airways, but now i have discovered Emirates and they are like chalk and cheese.

The fact that Thai fly direct from Brisbane to Bangkok matters little now, I much prefer the service, comfort and cleanliness of Emirates from Brisbane to Singapore, then hop on a small budget airline of Jetstar Asia.

Sooooooo much better ?

Can you do that as a transit passenger or do you need to pass immigration in Singapore

Another one for the mile-high cock_roach club.

So much fuss over one cockroach.

Do a google on how much in the way of human skin flakes are cleaned out of every plane during a full strip and inspection of all planes from every airline in the world.

It might surprise you.

Or get a microscope and take a look at the stuff you're drinking or eating. Full of all sorts of funky activity.

 

Luckily most of us have got a working immune system. And a foot to crush a roach.

Yep, just the stuff that makes the world go round.

Maybe the roach was taking a vacation.

When booking coach class, always important to check there's not an extra fold in the ticket.

Look at the size must be Japanese??

Is it a japanese made remote control spy camera? If it's a cockroach it's a healthy one, you see the shiny wings don't you? Good foods and friendly people around especially buddhist japanese they wouldn't whack them with newspaper or magazine. It had sushimi for lunch and green curry for dinner. Gluten free of course.

[sammieuk1]

How spooky its the word I once used to describe their customer services?  

[Stargeezr]

If Thai AIr had a small Dyson Vacuum on board, zip zip cockroach sucked up, and

problem solved.
