Great news for business travellers into Bangkok.

Bangkok (BKK) Within a 60km radius of Suvarnabhumi International Airport. Itineraries which are exclusively between Bangkok and Hong Kong are not eligible for Chauffeur-drive. Excess mileage charged at THB 35 per km for First Class and Business Class. Payment can be made in cash or by credit card.

Etihad also offers the 60KM ride for F/J pax, let's see if Oman matches.

EVA and Cathay offer me a smirk.

United offers flatulence, and while not being able to offer the taxi ride, offer a different ride, which consumers call the fee ride.

ANA didn't have a ride on the menu, but I did get some flight delays.

Singapore says,why do you need a ride. Stay in Singapore and you won't have to worry. Good point.

TG used to offer pick-up and drop-off service for F travel, with an escort from the curb to the lounge and from the arrival gate to your destination; it was very nice. When they moved from Don Meuang to Suvarnabhumi they dropped this service.

With both EK and EY offering this service in both F and J it seems like they will need a lot of cars and drivers?

Very good, I use Emirates Business class all the time, the more service they offer the better.

Oman Air does.(a couple of years already)

Bangkok 60 Km

London 60 Miles

It's Emirates matching its competitors not the other way around.

Nice motors as well.

I think the limit now is 100miles or km...not sure which.

In the UK there's only a limit if you fly Business. First Class gets you a ride from anywhere.

Emirates business offers pickup service at Amsterdam as well. Too posh for me, but my (poshy)uncle was excited about this new package until he learned about the 3 hour layover at Dubai..
