Your friend is right :) When I used to visit my best friend in Singapore (before he moved), I always took Singapore Airlines because, after the first step in the plane, you already feel like over there because the crew is made of singaporean people. Then the asian food is confirming this feeling. And on the way back, it's like you are still on holiday. ;)

Thai Airways even in economy in those days was simply the best and compared favourably to Emirates ; Ettihad and Qatar Airways . Their business class was as good as any first class . Sadly due to overpricing and far too many Thai Airways executives and flunkies flying for FREE the airline has been in decline for the last 15 years and really should cut its losses and close !!

Talk about recovery, It won't be easy for Thailand to recover from the side effects of COVID-19. Most of the bachler degree graduteds are still unemloyed (me included) due to lots of companies and civil organizations prefers the experienced workers over the newly graduated ones. The situation is even worse when tons of experienced workers got lay-offed during the first wave of COVID-19 which make the chance of getting employed even low than it was.

It's not, it's terrible with bad attitude cabin crew and check-in crew. Put simply customers are a nuisance. HAd one really bad exprience flying business class with my Thai 18 year old son Bangkok to Jakarta; after evening meal all finished and all packed away my son asked politely for a glass of Coca Cola, bus class hostess didn't stop to take his order just yelled at him 'go and ask in economy class' and kept walking.

Being a crew member myself, not for Thai I can really relate to a lot in this video. The embarrassment I feel handing our premium customers food on one tray for a business class service is shameful. Especially when they pay so much to fly with us. So much stuff now is only 'on request'. Mostly this comes from the airlines clawing back any un-necessary costs as possible to recover from the pandemic. When does this end though? The aviation industry is in a bad place at the minute so being patient with them at this time is obviously essential. Hopefully we will get back to life as it was pre-pandemic so we can all get back to doing what we love soon! Great video.

I really appreciate all the crew and pilots to continue to transport us all around the world in these sad times. As a passenger, I become more patient and understanding with all temporary cost cutting measures. I know sooner or later, things should go back to what it once was. Now in 2022, some airlines offer meal services course by course (Qatar, Singapore etc.), some still do the one tray get all style. I have a good feeling that, say, by 2023 or 24, things should go back to normal. Let's hope so.....

They consistently make bad decisions like the A380 (now retired) and are seemingly always on the point of folding. Why take the risk?

However after the bad politicians ate it alive (sent their families and friends to be the board for 10 years and spent Thai airways’ profit to fund their own political party), TA lost all Thai people’s support. The last straw was that the crew treated Thai passengers snobbishly. Therefore when it went under to almost bankruptcy, we even encourage the current government to let it go bankrupt and builds the new airline.

Something I have always wondered about. Every KZitem video is always spouting about how it only cost a few dollars along with the thousands of air miles or points they spent. What about how these points were earned? I know credit cards with gifted points in signing up are often cited as the source for ‘free’ points but surely taking on cards for that reason alone (ie; more and more credit) isn’t really great financial advice?

Years ago I flew Thai from the UK. I was sat in amongst many Thai's that had visited Europe. After chatting with some of the 'happy travelers' it became apparent that they were employees of or had some close affiliation to Thai Airways. After a couple of drinks they were telling me of 'allowances' and 'perks' they can take every year! Seems none of them had paid anything like what I had paid! No wonder the financial deficit! This was once a really nice airline! Sad.

The benefits that they receive are just like other airlines. The free ticket is not confirmed. You only get the seat when it's available and it's not totally free. You still need to pay some money. Other airlines also have the same or even better welfare.

I used to fly Thai when I was little. It was at the time when Thai started repainting their aircraft from the old-looking white and pink stripe to the beautiful current livery. I even flew in their MD-11. Those were some days. Loads of good food, amenities and the best service I have ever experienced. Tears me to pieces to see my favourite airline remaining stuck and dealing with unfortunate economic struggles. Their B747 was another plane I flew with them, and the air hostesses switching their uniforms according with the hours (therefore, the light). Those were nicer days, when flying was something pleasant.

I can say one thing and that’s that they have improved a lot. The lounge is the same but now they will give you options on the plane once your op in the sky on what you want for dinner and breakfast and you tell them what you want so they now exactly what to give you when it’s time to eat. The movies haven’t really improved. But over all I think they have definitely improved from when you where flying. So give them a little break

nice honest review. I'm flying from LHR-BKK with Thai airways in 7days time. I've 99% of the time fly with Thai airways direct to bkk and I always enjoy flying with them. it's been 2 years since I've not been to Thailand. im looking forward to going back in April this time and for the first time I've booked business class. appreciate your review but I'm still really looking forward to my first trip to Thailand in business class. it's a shame they don't do the menu which I was quite looking forward to add to the experience but it's not put me off anything better then economy class food lol .

As a Thai citizen, I am happy to see many comments that express their good times with Thai Airways. But anyway their financial status has not been great even before COVID-19. So COVID-19 is just worsening the bad financial state. Your flight to Phuket before London is just their way to cope. And I am sorry for that. You would not believe that Thai airways even tried selling their famous fried dough. It became a frenzy for a moment since people kinda felt nostalgic for the delicious dough on planes. I really hope the management will be more efficient and reasonable, so this airlines can really shine the way it used to be.

I just flew with Thai in business in this configuration 3 days ago from Phuket to FRA direct. It was a A350. Loved the crew , and this seat - by the window, was really private. But the video choice on their system? Really bad. They’re showing us tv series that never lasted for more than a few episodes ! 😂

It is probably best not to stay on the aircraft if the next leg is a really long one. Health-wise, it is much better to walk around for an hour. Most people overeat on an aircraft due to boredom, which can affect them with a negative mood.
