geriatrickid Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I am more concerned about TG transferring too many of its routes to Thai Smile. It's frightening. I don't think most people are aware of the extent of the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 One of the posters mentioned it a week or so ago with the view of the paint job it has here. The thread currently lives over in the Pub Forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roamer Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Bangkok – Paris CDG eff 15FEB13. They must be expecting an upsurge in numbers then. Never flown this route without empty seats., which always surprised me as the alternative was Air France. Maybe I got lucky ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaiUan Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Thai Smile are using THAI Airways TG flight numbers, what a scam What's the scam? They are part of TG but operate as a distinct product.. Exactly, it's actually a smart move, all the distribution channels and interline agreements are available directly, so they can focus on the product in itself... and currently it looks good as it is not presented as a low-cost (knowing the previous announcements for Thai Tiger etc.). The target here seems to be Bangkok Airways rather than AirAsia... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
