Ah yes but after Thai Airways purchases 38 new aircraft it will likely hold No. 1 position for having the biggest accumulated debt of all the international airlines.........beat that! Thai Airways has nearly double the number of employees per aircraft compared to Singapore Airlines........beat that! http://bakertilly.co.th/insights/thai-airways-drastic-action-required/ 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thainesss Posted November 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2019 As a person who fly's often, my main focus point is the seat. Nothing else matters. These editorials are deceptive and annoying because lets be honest - of all the people flying, are you choosing your flights based on the "food" and "service" and "safety record" or on the price and seat configuration. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gimo Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Interesting to note the top 10 , all from Asia and the East .

It depends. I fly F so yes, seat does matter but just as equally important so does the service I receive, both on the ground and in the air. Price does play a part but I've switched recently from Emirates to Thai mainly because it's a direct flight. Thai is often more expensive.

brucegoniners Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Of course THAI isn't there. They keep falling. They're on the verge of going BK. That has to effect their standards. And if they want to survive they need to lower their prices. I fly all the time in and out of BKK and they never come up in a search for near the lowest price, while fine airlines like Qatar and Singapore come up all the time. Why is that?
