My Thai wife will be making her first trip out of country and I have heard that you can arrange for someone to meet a 1st timer at the terminal entrance and walk her through the intimidating gauntlet from the check in and baggage counter and security stops, all the way to the waiting room for flights.

Is this true and how can it be arranged??

I believe it is through the airline she is flying with. Contact them. Usually it is for children flying alone but try anyway,

• Our friendly Airport Hostess will meet & greet with you at a previously agreed on location in the departure hall, holding a sign with your name or a more discrete expression like a company name, logo, initials, etc.
• She will then assist with check-in and lead you to the exclusive fast track immigration counter, where she will ensure that your official exit from Thailand occurs without any delays. If so required, she accompanies you to the VAT refund claim center.
• After escorting or directing you to your departure Gate or your airline's lounge this Bangkok Airport fast track immigration service in concluded.

Thanks Chicog...............exactly what I was looking for.

If she is flying Thai Airlines they will also assist at both ends of the journey if you ask them. They are also very good with people who only speak Thai , who are elderly like a MIL or who need interpreters etc. Give them their dues they are good in that way.

Several such services popup when you Google for: bangkok fasttrack

All the other refer their bookings to this lot.
