dinger Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Back to the original post: I was just informed that the mid afternoon flight from KK to BKK is being canceled. I now get to enjoy a 6.5hr layover in BKK on my way to Sydney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkGM1957 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Thai Air apologised with a standard email. i complained and the same bs email came back to me. No evidence of corrective actions. So I don't use them anymore. Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showbags Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 'Thai Airways doesn't have a gleaming safety record either — four fatal crashes in 1.98 million flights, an Adjusted Fatal Event figure of 3.69 and an accident rate that is 306 percent worse than average.'

Taggart Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Not a complaint against Thai Airways, but booked a flight to Khon Kaen from Bangkok. Tried to select seats for my wife and myself online, but I get an error message saying they can't give a seat map, and we have to try to get seats together on checkin at the airport. Possibly because we chose the cheapest tickets? No problem on an earlier trip to Chiang Mai selecting seats online with NOK Air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Dunno where or how the OP checked Thai Air's KK schedules. But when I check Thai Air's website today, they still show four daily flights departing KK for BKK, departing at 8:45 am, 12:30 pm, 5 pm and 8:10 pm. Based on their website, the cheapest fare they offer for the trip is the early morning flight, which comes in at a "steal" for only 4000b RT per person as their "Saver" fare. It's an A320 into Suvarnabhumi with a 20 Kg baggage allotment per passenger. Wow...that 4k return for a 30 minute flight is a bargain. I can only go all the way to Phnom Penh return for the same 4k on Air Asia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorecard Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Nothing to do with the original post for which I apologise, but the heading fits perfectly. Today I looked on Skyscanner fo BKK to London in July. I wanted direct, economy class. The results were: Eva Air GBP699, BA GBP741, Thai GBP1,970! I actually booked BA premium economy for under a grand but why is Thai just so far out of line? Same same Thai logic...raise the prices cos less people travelling to make up for the empty seats. G'kid will be along soon to justify the enormous difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tw25rw Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I recently had a bit of luck with their specials.. Took the gf to Sydney for a few days for £550 from BKK. Couple of days later it was over £2k.. Bizarre considering my ticket was £1100 from London. That said, I hope I don't have to fly the route in economy again...
