george Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Gulf Air signs codeshare agreement with Thai Airways DUBAI: -- Customers from the Middle East and Thailand now have more convenient options to travel to popular destinations in Thailand, China, Oman and Bahrain with a codeshare agreement signed between Gulf Air and Thai Airways. The agreement paves way for Gulf Air to codeshare on Thai Airways' services in the following sectors: Bangkok-Muscat, Bangkok-Phuket-Bangkok, Bangkok-Chiang Mai-Bangkok. Thai Airways codeshares with Gulf Air on its Bangkok-Bahrain and Bangkok-Muscat sectors. The sale of tickets for these sectors has already begun with Gulf Air and Thai Airways. "We are delighted to become codeshare partners with Thai Airways, another airline of repute. It is part of Gulf Air's growth strategy to strengthen its network and expand its operations in association with like-minded partners for mutually beneficial business propositions," says Gulf Air vice president network Fareed Al Alawi. --Agencies 2006-10-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinrada Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 So does that mean that Gulf Air has now joined up with the Star Alliance Network....???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florin Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Nope, it seems to be a partnership solely with Thai...it could lead to greater things, but for now I don't think it will mean much to the average traveler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai already have a codeshare agreement with Emirates, any four digit flight number between Dubai and Bkk i.e. EK2600 is actually a TG flight.

Thai already have a codeshare agreement with Emirates, any four digit flight number between Dubai and Bkk i.e. EK2600 is actually a TG flight. I'm booked on a Gulf Air flight from Bahrain to BKK on 13th February. Does that mean I can expect Thai stewardess types on the flight? Probably not. Last year I had some German fraulien and an Omani girl in business class. This year.....???? Edited January 13, 2006 by IMA_FARANG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
