Instead, Thai Airways have managed to turn an 'non-issue' into an own goal and managed to secure negative publicity out of thin air... ... This is known as the Streisand effect... Where attempting to limit and censor what they see as a negative information back fires and generates greater negativity... I seriously hope it will backfire on them!

Highlandman Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 20 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: He wasn't jailed for making a negative review . He posted numerous fake malicious reviews on various websites attacking the hotel The hotel asked him to stop with his malicious campaign against the hotel and he refused to stop and the hotel took legal action against him to make him stop posting lies on line about the hotel US man avoids jail in Thailand over bad resort review https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-54473407 I understand he still spent 2 days in jail. If he hadn't been jailed at all, he would have spent 0 days in jail. That's the whole point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only became enraged afterwards and proceeded to post his complaint (he needed to vent) after the flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you do that? The man posted lies and slanderous comments saying that Thai skimp on fuel risking safety, the pilots were wrong to divert as he could see out of the windows and no other flights diverted (they did), and that the pilots' command of English was too poor to negotiate more firmly with ATC. It wasn't just a complaint that he was late home, he posted that the airline was risking safety in several ways. But you would reward that with a business class ticket and photos? He comments were slanderous. I disagree with Thai's approach and they should have just made him take them down and apologise, but I have no ideas why you think slanderous comments merit a free business class trip. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 A weather related diversion occurred that happens daily all around the world. The only reason this is news is TG suing a passenger where in any normal jurisdiction a simple tweet on X would suffice, or just ignore. I would say mods please close the thread but reading you amateurs' Monday morning quarterbacking for 12 pages is amusing. I won't bother to respond to the tosh, pish and rubbish contained within other than to say most of you have no understanding of flight operations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorrow Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Image? And what about all the monies Thai Airways have not paid back to customers relative to pre- covid 19 bookings? Perhaps a refocusing on paying back customers who never got what they paid for maybe more appropriate than wasting money on suing a customer who is already apologized. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
