Neeranam Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I wonder why this story in the main Thailand news. Some dude's flight was cancelled. I'm flying soon and if it cancelled, I don't want my ugly mug plastered all over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The least hardship and suffering, especially financial (schadenfreude angle), of one of "our lads," a privileged though often impecunious class, is always of intense interest on the forum and generates lots of page views (12.6k in this case), hence revenue. 1 hour ago, Neeranam said: I'm flying soon and if it cancelled, I don't want my ugly mug plastered all over here. The readership will demand it. Now if you could somehow also injure yourself, say while rushing to meet the cancelled flight, then get your hospital bed pics posted as an innocent victim of Thailand and need a GoFundMe--that'd be perfect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was back then during Covid , a few add ons though like luggage and food Cheapest BKK-UK flight I have seen in the past few years was 10,000 baht one-way with Thai Airways... Upcoming the cheapest one way is with 3 stops !!! (Mubai, Abu Dhabi, Tel Aviv) not a journey I’d wish on my enemies !!! (10,817 baht). Its entirely conceivable that a Budget carrier adds promotions to fill a plane - 4000 Baht seems extremely cheap and is possibly a quoted price before taxes etc... its still jeffing cheap !!!...

Unless there is significant savings, it makes much more sense to go direct with the airlines. I made the mistake of booking a ticket though an agent a couple of years ago. Flights were cancelled (Qatar Airways)... It took 5 months to get a refund, Qatar Airways were the slow ones, but the Agent offered me about 80% of the refund cost claiming they had costs too. I wasn’t interested and got IATA involved, I was quickly refunded the full amount. In short - the Travel Agent still tried to ‘take some of the moment’... but the airline were still extremely slow to refund, by EU law the had a legal obligation to refund within a week... (something they never stuck to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
