Do you know specificly the type of aircraft? The only prop jobs I could think of that would make that trip would be some of the Antonov or Ilyusin cargo haulers. Maybe they take a few passengers to pick up extra revenue?

Ask your friend what aircraft is listed on the itinerary and post back.

Antonov makes several models of turbo-prop passenger aircraft. But generally they are for short haul flights (~2000km) and carry around 50 passengers (Antonov-140). Seems strange to to use a turbo-prop for such a long distance. In the US I have flown in turbo-props several times in the mid of winter and they are warm enough but they are really loud and wouldn't want to fly several hours in one.

Ok, that covers the taxiride to Don Muang, but we're talking about a flight here.
