GBAn airline that brings dishonour to Thailand I had to reschedule a flight. It was impossible to do this online which is very unusual these days. Getting hold of anyone in customer services is an absolute nightmare. The phones are hopeless. If you search around online you may be lucky to get an email address that someone may answer. If you need any kind of money back then, after they have helped themselves to a sizeable slice of your pie, you will wait months and months. You will enter a fog of unknowing. There is no contact, no updates, no means of finding out anything. You hit an opaque wall through which light cannot penetrate. It wasn’t even as if this was a cheap ticket. We’re talking over £1000 (USD 1250) economy for LHR to CNX via BKK. This is an opaque airline which damages and dishonours Thailand.

GBMiserable experience I was looking forward to flying Thai Airlines. Flight wasn't cheap one way £995 LHR however, it was 13hrs straight through to london no changes brilliant. Oh dear, not so brilliant. Horrible Horrible where to begin. Seating can you make it any smaller, food order vegetarian safe side bad bad choice disgusting. Cabin cold why do you want to freeze your passengers on 13hour flight. Staff surley as cold as the cabin temperature. Service definitely not with a smile. Never fly this airline again,NO!!! rather extract my back teeth.

GBWaited 4 years and 3 months for refund… Waited 4 years and 3 months for refund of flight cancelled during covid. In the time since booking my cash will have lost 35-40% to inflation while Thai probably had it sitting in a high interest account. Seeing headlines about plans to double their fleet size and business is booming. Greedy and ignorant business only concerned with lining their own pockets.

DK8 hour flight delay, no compensation I recently experienced a significant flight delay with Thai Airways, in total an 8-hour delay. This delay caused me to incur additional expenses: - an extra night's stay at the hotel - meals - transport Further, it led to missed meetings. Despite attempts to address and seek compensation for these inconveniences, I found the responses from Thai Airways to be unempathetic and unwilling to help. Additionally, some of the provided email addresses for contact were outdated or unreachable. This experience has significantly impacted my view of the airline and its customer service and taught me the value of flying with European airlines which are covered by European aviation regulations, which offer better passenger protection. Additionally, I have a preference for airlines with a predominantly Airbus fleet over Boeing, given the recent safety concerns surrounding Boeing.

GBTheft, damage and non-existent customer service I flew with Thai Airways in Nov 2022. My luggage went missing but was returned to my address about a week later. The case had been broken into and something stolen. I sent photos and flight details as requested. Since then they have blanked all efforts to get any compensation. 15 months later, 20 plus emails and still nothing. This airline is happy for property to be damaged and people's belongings to be stolen. Don't fly with them. Customer service is so shocking it barely exists.
