Thai Airways customer review

(Germany)

The new seat design is comfy, only the middle seats are quite close to the neighbor. Food very good choices. Beverages reasonable. Inflight entertainment with lots of films. Monitor does not allow you to tilt vertically or sideward. Headphone is very big and heavy and it does not have the noise suppression. They took the menu after i order the food. I ask for white wine and they just brought any wine, even that they had 3 kinds available.

(Australia)

Flew Melbourne to Bangkok return in economy. Melbourne to Bangkok: Hot towels were given out after take off, a drinks round and then dinner was served. Food was decent for economy class. Good choice of inflight entertainment. Cabin crew were polite and friendly and did their jobs to a high standard. Drinks offered many times by staff, and drinks were available in the galley as well. Breakfast served before landing. Bangkok to Melbourne: Much the same as the in bound flight, crew excellent and several drink rounds were offered. However had to take shuttle bus from terminal to the plane even though the aerobridge was not in use.

London Bangkok Business class. First time in Silk class (Business) on the upper deck of Boeing 747-400. The cabin felt jaded, but in a few days this route will be using the A380, so you can see why Thai Airways are not investing on this aircraft. The inflight service was friendly and efficient, though breakfast felt a bit rushed. Will be interesting to see how the A380 compares on my return.

Thai Airways customer review

(Singapore)

Thai Airways offered the most direct route from Singapore to Islamabad and the timing is good too. Onboard meal service and inflight entertainment option are good. I enjoy the flights both to and from Islamabad. Only small problems the flight does not operate on a Sunday and price tend to be expensive for this route. It is even more expensive than flying to Europe return. Other than that, I am happy with the flights. The route and connectivity of Thai Airways are very extensive, it can compete with other major airlines if only the price is comparable to others. The same route by Qatar Airways or Emirates always ended up cheaper during the sale time, compared to Thai Airways. Considering Thai Airways using older aircrafts compared to these airlines, the fares must be made competitive.

Thai Airways customer review

(New Zealand)

Our trip started well in United lounge at Heathrow but we had poor service on the plane. The Business seats on Boeing 747 were narrow with thin padding and mine wouldn’t recline. The flight attendant wasn’t interested when asked for assistance to fix the seat. He disappeared and never came back. Finally after the meal we got someone to come and they forced the seat to recline but it never worked properly. The seats are nowhere near lie-flat and are quite uncomfortable. There was a limited range of movies and hardly any TV programmes. How hard is to offer a decent range of entertainment? The food was mediocre and seemed the same as you get in Economy. The breakfast was terrible – a hard, fully cooked egg that was called poached on a tough muffin. We were never offered the bread basket. The steward walked straight past us. We had the same disinterested service on our next flight on a 777-300. The food was a bit better but not great. There were no snacks offered overnight. The staff seemed more interested in serving dinner quickly so they could spend the rest of the flight resting and chatting. And seats were even worse. Even fully extended they’re far too short and the footrest flops down to the floor with any pressure on it at all. The most uncomfortable Business seats we’ve ever had. Two very disappointing flights.

(Thailand)

Good journey overall. Outgoing flight is cancelled, but Thai Airways offer a seat on Thai Smile Airways (their subsidiary) with more favorable departure time. A320 are new and comfortable. Snack bag served with bottle water by polite and friendly staff. Return flight on old Boeing 777-300 with generous seat pitch. Snackbox is tasty and adequate for 1 hour flight.

Thai Airways customer review

(Canada)

The glory days of Thai Airways are gone and have been for some years now. I fly Thai several times a year in both business and economy and find them to be very poor. Unfortunately they offer the only direct flight on some of the routes I need to take. On this particular flight the disappointments just kept adding up. From the poor service provided by flight attendants who were more interested in chatting in the galley to the very poor quality meal and drink selection. For the price they are charging for a business class ticket one would think they could provide some decent wines and video entertainment. Seats are not flatbed and were not long enough for my 180 cm frame. The business class lounge was very poor although not operated by Thai they should not be using 3rd party operators that provide poor food and drink selection and no in site rest rooms. What continues to amaze me is how 2 of the top airlines are operating only a few hours from Bangkok and yet Thai Airways cannot seem to emulate them in the least - how hard is it to go and study what Singapore Airlines or Cathay are doing?

(Thailand)

This is the best airline that operates this route. Great food and food choice. Plenty of legroom. Amenities are good. The only thing is that the crew can't speak much English. If you are planning to fly the LHR-BKK route, I would strongly recommend this airline. In a month or so, they will use the A380 on this route, which will be even better.

(India)

I fly often with Thai from BLR to ICN via BKK. And I have enjoyed all of my experiences with Thai. Economy food was very good unlike many other high class airlines. I especially enjoyed the dessert. Cabin crew could be a bit more attentive and friendly but generally good. Communicating with the cabin crew can be quite difficult as they don't speak much English. This can definitely be improved to give more comfortable flight experience to the customers. Otherwise, I will definitely fly Thai again.

(United Kingdom)

Flew Bangkok - Rome. Start with the good thing: Food was very good and inflight entertainment excellent. The fact that the plane was less than half full helped as you could get a row of seats to lie down and the staff were relaxed about you moving seats unlike some airlines that tell you they cannot take off until you have returned to your seat. Staff were attentive enough but as soon as their duty was done they disappeared to rest. Some were friendly and helpful but most are perfunctory and a little disinterested. Having flown Singapore nothing can match their genuine helpfulness and friendliness. Saying that Thai are better than Qantas who are too strict and not friendly. Overall Thai is good and I'll fly them again.
