THAI maps out return to the skies

By TTR WEEKLY

 

  

BANGKOK, 11 May 2020: Confident it has a government fiscal bailout in the pipeline, beleaguered Thai Airways International released details of a July startup of flights on routes worldwide.

 

According to timetable information posted on booking systems and reported by Airlineroute, Thailand’s national airline has filed details of flights resuming 1 July.

 

Earlier reports had suggested the airline would stay offline until late October when the winter timetable kicks-in.

 

Frequencies vary from just a few services per week to daily flights to London Heathrow, Copenhagen and Frankfurt.

 

The decision to resume daily services to  London Heathrow 1 July could come under review as the UK has introduced a 14-day quarantine for all passengers arriving in the country.

I can confirm this news.

I have a booked ticket to Copenhagen on the first of July.

- I also had one for 29th March and 12th of June, and they were cancelled. Let's see what happens to the ticket for 1st of July........

Scheduling all these flights to Australia, is it just optimism. Whilst I can see there might be a few people wanting to go from here (Thailand) to there, at the moment there is a ban on international travel out of Australia (except for a very few exemptions, whatever that means, I just spent 10 minutes on Smart Traveller and could not find that bit). So anyway, I had a booking for 16 April which I changed to 8 October early on in the piece, would prefer to go earlier but also want to be able to get back, early New Year. They couldn't run all those flights 3/4 empty surely or are they going to scale it back once they realise.
