Great to hear Thai Airways is back on track! I wonder if this means the refund for my cancelled flight will also be back on tract????!!!
Abbandonata l’Italia
Whoopee, so the moribund Airline is prepared to fly me to BKK where I’ll be promptly ‘escorted’ into quarantine for at least 2 weeks in the Covid Capitol of Thailand.
No provision made to ‘fast track’ passengers who’s final destination is elsewhere in Thailand.
Desperate times calls for desperate measures.
£944 to London and back by Thai airways.
£476 to London and back by Swiss Air.
And Swiss Air is likely to fly you home.
I am surprised that Thai Airways is risking flights to western countries where there is a risk that their aircraft will be seized for debt.
You might want to check the list….Australia isn’t accepting flights unless they are repatriation flights of Australian Citizens, with a mandatory 14 day quarantine on arrival. I can’t imagine it being a “lucrative” flight.
Does anyone seriously think that Thai Airways are going any sell tickets as long as they still need to refund a huge amount of tickets from the last 2 year???
Thai Airways running the risk of their leased Airbus planes confiscated once they land on European soil.
Whats the point in running Sydney-Bangkok?
I Hope also from Milan and Rome!!!
Sandbox is their last roll of the dice. Suckers.
Why would you fly to Manila where Covid if rampant ffs
It shall only be a one way flight as there birds will be impounded due to the insane amount of money they owe.
And they will fly “until September”, so probably a new lockdown is planned due in September.
I wonder how much the IMF pays for every lockdown? They offered the president of Belarus 1 billion USD under the table for a 1 month hard lockdown.
Only fully vaccinated people are allowed to travel to the EU and must be vaccinated with vaccinations approved by the EU.
Sinovac is not one of them.
@Slugger – because the Thai dont know you are living in Nazi Germany and aren’t allowed to leave. They have made a list based on low covid countries. Time for you Aussies to kick Csomo in the nuts. He hates CCP but is just as bad.
A friend arrived in BKK yesterday. Horrible quarantine hotel with terrible service. Spain to Doha 4 seats to lie on, Doha to BKK maybe 28 people on the plane. Can’t see it lasting. Going through customs and baggage collection he had his medical docs inspected 9 different times. Said it was comical.
Their maintenence mechanics, ground staff and cabin crews have all had their wages and benefits slashed. Employees not overjoyed. This airline is bankrupt owing for cancelled flights and equipment lease payments. Proposed routes to some closed countries. Much higher fares than solid, reliable carriers. Sounds like a plan!
Why on earth would anyone book a ticket with Thai Air? 5.4 billion US in debt, tens of thousands of customers still owed refunds from over a year ago, scared of landing planes in Europe as they could get impounded by creditors. All while the border restrictions change overnight countries. I guess there’s one born every minute.
empty flights further pushing the airline closer to extinction.. again
be a brave person who book’s a flight on tg at present.best use your credit card and have a plan b ready.
May I have my 3.000 Euro?
let this junk company stay on the ground as long as they do not pay back what they owe. Then they can have the shit themselves and without tourists.
Could be risky to book a ticket they owe too much money to Germany, swiss, usa and Japan.
After being charged and thereafter paying £2700 for a one way ticket last September from UK, while Thai Airways held a repatriation monopoly on seats I vowed never to use Thai Airways again unless I was desperate. I used to be a gold card holder on this airline, but never again.
