I was going to say that back on page 2 of this thread but you beat me to it. To me (and you, I presume) that is the obvious solution but sadly Thais seem to "always know best"..........until they don't! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Delta my flights benefits extend to; Spouse Minor Children Children in College up to age 26 Active Military Children One Buddy Pass who has to travel with me And as I said in a previous post, all of that depends on availability of non rev seats being available, so essentially you are always on the Standby List Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenKadz Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 “The company will suspend or postpone sending staff for training, attending meetings or working elsewhere domestically and overseas unless it’s important or it could have a negative impact on the company if they’re not sent,” I would think Staff Training, Work, and avoiding Negative Impact is pretty important! "managing directors and other top executives will be asked to limit their requests for travel expenses domestically and abroad to what is already specified in current regulations". And here we have the 'real' problem, managers and executives who refuse to follow the current regulations, because well..... they are managers and executives and do not have to follow regulations. Thainess! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All take a 50 percent wage cut. 2. All stop free travel until they are in good financial shape. 3. Get some outside help that knows how to get the airline in better shape. 4. Quit their corrupt practices, and too many free flights for too many staff and especially families and friends of the staff. 5. No more free flights for any Military people, and the Thai PM. 5555 It will never happen, but one can hope. Geezer "families and friends of the staff." Probably first to go "free flights for any Military people, and the Thai PM" Probably last to go - if ever!. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I wonder if they will be able to tell the billionaire generals that they are no longer welcome to fly free, in first or business class, anywhere in the world, whenever they want. I would love to see the looks on their faces! Get out of here. You are no longer welcome. You are bankrupting the airline. And you are not worth it. You do absolutely nothing for the nation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very funny, sir!! Lol. 38k feet in the air over the arctic, one gets out alive. Sky waitress/es On my return to BKK last month just thinking what a dreadful, dirty job it was. All the glamour long gone. Selling <deleted>, bussing trays. Always short staffed. At least most of the Asian airlines insist they are slim and attractive when hired.

josephbloggs Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Yet another Thai Airways thread, yet another group of the same old people making the same old comments about Hisos. Can one of you - any one of you - please post a link or some evidence that "hisos" fly free in First class, business class or any class. Government ministers used to get travel perks but as far as I remember that was stopped 10-15 years ago. So instead of perpetuating another good old TVF myth and bleating how a foreigner would save it, how about some evidence? By the way free (or heavily discounted) flights for staff and their family and friends is an industry norm. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
