Bangkok-Luang Prabang return. Rather chaotic check-in at BKK. Long queue out towards the airport entrance,
leading to the 5 open desks (all flights). Being interrupted by staff looking for passengers on earlier departing
flights (& moving them to the front of the line). So by turning up 2 hrs before my flight probably meant I queued
longer. After that, the service was faultless, on the ground and in the air. The meals both ways were very good,
the cooked breakfast on outbound, and a delicious chicken salad with Thai dressing on the return. The staff were
smart, friendly, and helpful. Flights on time, and a dedicated lounge at both airports. Also enjoy the ATR 72 plane,
I am tall, so was lucky to get exit extra legroom. A pleasure to fly.

BKK-DAC. I ended up having to purchase their flight ticket due to abrupt cancellation of my original flight (GMG
Airlines). Although the ticket cost was high as it was a last minute purchase, I felt their services made up for it. The
flight was on time, the plane was new and clean, ground staff was efficient and professional and accommodated
with luggage transfer etc. The flight attendants were courteous and the food was top quality for a small airliner. I
wish I had booked them for this leg instead of GMG! Due to short connection time in BKK, my luggage could not
make it with me in the same flight. But BA made sure the luggage made it to DAC on the very next flight and their
ground staff in DAC informed me in a timely fashion when my luggage arrived in DAC. They even checked with me
several times to make sure I had picked up the luggage and everything was in good shape. Excellent all round
service.

Utapao-Phuket. The cabin crew were absolutely first class. We had a few gentlemen flying on the flight who did not
seem to understand basic rules. Not once did the stewardess get flustered, or angry. She remained the
consummate professional. Its only a short 1hr30min flight but Bangkok Airways have always delivered the goods,
and I fly this route often.

Laung Prabang-Bangkok. At first I was a bit apprehensive about flying on a local Asian airline. I soon discovered
that the service and standard were far superior to most European short haul airlines. The flight departed and
arrived on time in difficult conditions. Access to the airport lounge in Luang Prabang was included. The lounge was
quite basic but appreciated with a free snack and refreshment. The in flight cabin on the ATR72 was quiet small but
comfortable. The food served on board was excellent. I highly recommend this airline.

Our flight was Bangkok-Phuket, I found the service was excellent. Food was
very good quality, I would definitely choose Bangkok Airways again.

Good business clasS lounge in Bangkok and the lounge in Samui is welcome as it can be very humid if
you're not in a lounge. Airline food ok for short flight. Boarded first on plane in Samui (as it
should be) but they boarded business class passengers last in Bangkok. This is unacceptable. You pay
more to board first, not last. Second time this has happened but was boarded last in Samui last year.
They really do need to get their act together.

BKK-USM-BKK. The lounge at BKK is really good and airport facilities at Samui also good. They
serve food/snacks with drinks on this short flight, and are also able to interline your baggage
with many other airlines which is a real boon when connecting in BKK.

UTP-USM-BKK-CMX-BKK. Bangkok Airways are almost always good apart from their route to and from
Samui. This flight is expensive and from Samui regularly late. We flew back USM to BKK on
Songkran (thai new year). As few people were leaving the island Bangkok Airways cancelled a
few planes. This was to bump us all onto less flights. Luckily I had no connection that day
but the delay of 2hrs was annoying for the person picking us up. Bangkok Airways had a special
deal to Chiang Mai and the flight was half full. The flight attendants were great and the
flight was smooth. For locals and regulars to Samui, Bangkok Airways are not liked on the
island due to their high prices. An island struggling for tourists after the bad flooding
needs help form everyone.

The best treatment I received in an airline. Helpful staff, meals in flight, free drinks in
the lounge, personal assistance in transfers and access to lounges in the airport for all
users.

HKG-Samui in Business with A319. Small delay, but good flight, perfect seat room and dinner,
friendly girls serving you. Three hours gone like nothing, if you want you get a DVD and
headphones to see movies also.

Luang Prabang to Bangkok on ATR72-500. Staff very polite, meal including wine served &
comfort for such a small plane better than most other airlines. One of the most pleasant
journeys I have had.

BKK-CNX-BKK. Good price, on time, good crew and a nice little meal on 1hr flight. The lounge
at BKK airport is a really nice touch and made a real difference waiting for the flight. Will
be using them again for sure.

BKK-PNH on A319 "Hiroshima" - carpets threadbare, food terrible. Only use them due to time
pressure, otherwise I'd fly AirAsia, save money.

Bangkok Airways are such a pleasure. One feels the staff really wish to make even a short
flight a real delight. Our family votes them the nicest airline.

I love the Blue Ribbon Lounge at Suvarnabhumi Airport. It is very comfortable, snacks and
drinks at the lounge are superb. Bangkok Airways have excellent staff - polite, helpful, , and
informative.

Sukhothai-Bangkok. Sukhothai airport is tiny but beautiful! You get free juice, coffee, tea
etc while waiting and magazines/newspapers. It was only just over an hour flight, but still
got drinks and a meal. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The plane was quite
small but just able enough to get comfortable.

Excellent service. I sprained my ankle and was taken by a young man with a wheelchair into to
the lounge to wait for my flight in Bangkok and then taken right on to the plane. The
inflight service was great and the flight on time.

Samui-Chiang Mai via Bangkok Got the flight for a good price which is surprising as Bangkok
Airways are overpriced. Service was good although my girlfriend and myself had to sit
separately. We should have checked in online. Bangkok Airways always have good service and the
FA's are always turned out well but they are over priced for regular travellers to Samui.

Bangkok-Male return. Great staff both in the air and on the ground, International Lounge is
not as crowded as Domestic one. Check in counter at Bangkok Airport Rail Link station is very
quick. Bad point - A319 aircraft with very tight seat pitch and very uncomfortable for such 4
hours route. Meal service is disappointing, flight is only two third full but they manage to
run out of food choices before reaching me for both flight, and the taste is bland. Not up to
usual PG standard.

SIN-USM-SIN on holiday trip with family. I choose this airline because of the good comments I
read about it, and have to state they are all true. Very swiftly check in, on time departure,
clean plane, very friendly staff, a decent meal (in spite of the short flight). In short, this
was absolutely value for money.

Have flown with this airline on many occasions and cannot fault them. Courteous, efficient and

If you are a holiday maker you will find this airline diverting and fun what with its own
lounges open to all passengers with free snacks and internet plus further in flight snacks and
quaint privately owned airports like Koh Samui. However if you live in Samui and frequently
wish to travel to Bangkok you will find it a different matter. Long waits on booking
reservations through their call center, very expensive flights on the Samui to Bangkok route
and the ground staff indifferent. Once in the air the service is good. Delayed flights often,
gives the impression that if not fully booked, two flights are compressed into one. I now
prefer to drive to Bangkok that must tell you something!

BKK-HKT-BKK. This was the first time I've flown Bangkok Air. Great airline that understands
customer service. Tickets were half the price of Thai. Quick, easy check-in at both BKK and
Phuket. Excellent lounge in BKK for economy passengers. The lounge at Phuket was too small to
be or use. Boarding from the gate to bus and on to plane took a while at BKK but everything
else worked like clockwork.
