Had been flying THAI since 1986 & it had been consistently top notch. Post-covid had been a struggle but THAI is coming around smooth as silk!

If you go on a round trip, like most people do, the pricing is quite different. On round trips, you are likely to pay 800~900 Euros minimum for Thai's Economy whereas middle eastern carriers sell Economy tickets from 600-700 Euros (with a layover in the middle east).

Oh, welcome back to ASEAN. From VietNam. Hope to see you again in my country:)). Nice trip!

nice honest review thanks

With the Thai Airways Screens you have to use your Fingernale, that's how I do it all the time

Your accent and demeanor is adorable 😊

I flew Thai from bkk to Melbourne recently. The food was fine, the service was basic.. they serve meals and disappear. I had to walk to the gallery to ask for a second glass of wine on a 9hour 30 min flight.. they ignored the call buttons. Walked straight past. No handing out of water. No offering of service of second drinks. Also I caught influenza from the flight. It was freezing cold. But they didn’t bother to increase the heat until I went to the galley and requested it. They are a good airline but the price I paid was too expensive. $650.00 AUD

The key thing to say about Thai economy from Europe to BKK is that they haven't densified their 777s to ten. The old school 9 abreast makes a big difference for spaciousness. I don't think they have re-introduced their A380s or even if they still have them. So 777 is your typical aircraft of comparison with - BA, Lufthansa and EVA, which are all ten abreast. One review or another may find poor food or service or suggest an airline has gone downhill or whatever, but, that might just be a bad one off. To me, the fundamental of hard product is key, especially when in economy things are so tight. If you can get 9 abreast, that matters most. Thai have it. A very valid alternative is the middle eastern route, which has a longer total time but makes it perhaps feel more reasonable in two stages, which is important as the seating is cramped to be stuck in for so long. It is possible to have both more spacious seating and this staging benefit if you choose Emirates and make sure your planned aircraft are the A380 for both stages. To me this would be an ideal, however there is the risk of aircraft substitution which means it would likely be a 777 and yes Emirates put theirs to 10 abreast also. Qatar has a more diverse aircraft fleet so even if you find a two stage A380 flight with them there is more risk of substitution. Going Premium Economy, the best direct service is with EVA, from various European airports. Thai don't do it. BA and Lufthansa ( they being particularly annoying as their seat width varies so much by aircraft ) are smaller and less well served. BA suspended the route so that helped make the route more expensive in recent times. They are due to return but their PE product isn't nearly as good as EVA. Choosing a two stage middle eastern way, its only Emirates that bother with PE. While it is rather gorgeous, you do also pay for it ! From Europe probably your best bet in PE is with EVA after BA return to the route. The benefit of breaking the journey via Dubai is less in PE as your comfort is a good bit better than in economy anyway. Better to get it over with in one go - with EVA. So to conclude, your best options from Europe to BKK : Economy direct : Thai Economy two stage : Emirates, choosing A380 flights. PE direct : EVA PE two stage : Emirates, any aircraft that has it

As a Thai person I would recommend business class for long flights on Thai airways. I have been using Thai airways for more than 12 years now and it’s great

Nice flight! HS-TKK was the thai oldest 777-300er or the one HS-TKK-HS-TKR was 777-3ALER or leased version butHS-TKV-HS-TKZ wasn't leased the dif is the seats colors and 3 new 777-300er with first class HS-TTA TTB TTC but thai still use3-3-3 config i recommended you to buy prefer seat for legroom. I have been using it

Definitely yes! I have started flying with thai airways as my first flight. One time i changed airways but regretted it. Thair airways has the hest economy class

Thai has always been my favourite. However, I can’t understand the flight attendant, as I have serious hearing loss and even with my hearing aids on and the attendants wearing masks, I can’t hear what they are saying when giving me the choices of meals. Please PLEASE bring back the card menu. Or even hand out A4 paper printed menus? It’s so difficult for us deaf people.

No matter if you are hearing impaired or not, often you don’t understand thai English anyway. Especially when you hear it for the first time. But sometimes they struggle with my thai accent, too. Always have a laugh with the crew

Very enjoyable and informative video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. My only complaint with THAI is that on their 787 Dreamliners, the Econ seats are very hard and uncomfortable on long haul flights.

Thai Airways Is Better Then Moost Of Europian Airlines In Economy My Opinion.Great Trip Report

I love my flight in 2014. But I think after covid, thai airways did not manage to recover its quality

Ermmm TG have 81 cm. seat pitch as same as EK while QR have 79 cm. 🤔

Even ticket cost €200more I prefer to fly direct flight instead transit in Dubai or Doha.

Love TG.❤

Please always request for an extra meal in any such flight

Even still my favorite airline 😁

I have only fly with SAS and Thai Airways and Thai Airways is best

Nice review :) ❤❤❤ i agree with you, I would choose Thai airways rather than Lufthansa :)

If you have evidence that there is approval for the refund, contact your bank and do a charge back on the credit card. I had the same issue during Covid and the bank immediately refunded the full amount.

Lufthansa, I will never travel with them again! This summer I came back from tokyo to paris with a transfer at Munich with Lufthansa! My munich paris flight has been cancelled for whaterver reason, so I spent a night a Munich. It takes us 46 hours to do Tokyo / Munich / Berlin / Paris! It is known that Lufthansa cancelled flights due to lack of personal, so never again with this company
