But the company bounced back from that setback a year later returning a net profit of 55.1 billion baht. It was Thai Airways’s first net profit in five years following a company overhaul of its infrastructure.

 

Creative accounting in the 2021 financial returns surely included asset sales and 'savings' through redundancies.  Can Thai ever recover?

I think you should say something about thousand of people who are waiting refunds from Thay Airways since 2020. They, literally, stole our money and theay are saying refund will arrive probably in 2024.

Check Facebook group Thay Airways Refund group.

Thanks

Ah, see, that's how bankruptcy, receivership etc. works. The creditor gets nowt except if he's 'preferred', normally government. Painful but true.

Thai Airways used to be my favourite airline and my first choice for direct flights from London to Bangkok.  I loved the 380, the smiling cabin crew and the excellent service.  With the restrictions now lifted I was looking at returning to Thailand but was disappointed to find flight prices from August (normally cheap) onwards had doubled from what I used to pay.  I'm now looking at indirect flights with other airlines to save money.

With Thailand taking a “neutral” stance in the Russia-Ukraine conflict,   why can’t Thailand buy cheap oil from Russia to alleviate the rising fuel costs.
