Popular Post RandolphGB Posted April 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2022 The commercial passenger department is overpriced, poor quality, corrupt and generally difficult to navigate the booking system. So it’s no surprise they’re losing money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 While TG is sitting around complaining and have not been flying for two years, others managed a black zero = Thai Vietjet Air. A professional Low Cost Carrier (LCC) operation which works. The customer has the choice and they chose NOT to use TG for its arrogant, snobbish and elitarian market approach - not talking about the air fares. Good luck with their catering idea by being ever so gracious and "willingness" to accept bids from interested agencies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SidJames Posted April 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2022 How are all the politicians & hangers on going to be able to fly around the world on fact finding missions if TG doesn't get back on it's feet? It will affect the global economy as other countries will not now know that the Thai government is one of the best in the world & that they should study how it's run the country for the benefit of a small elite group of familes who look after the poor of the country as best they can. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny on the spot Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Very gracious of them accepting bids. That scabby doomed airline needs scrapping and a few of the thousands of customers they owe refunds too for years repaid. Starting with my 40,000 baht ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post zzaa09 Posted April 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2022 Should've been put to bed a decade ago. A pathetic struggle on a corrupt and highly mismanaged system. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s no surprise they’re losing money. I thought they were making a profit now. The full article claims it did last year. 'The company reported a net profit of 55 billion baht in 2021 after debt restructuring, a huge turnaround from net loss of 141 billion baht in 2020.'
