A flight from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi to Phuket International Airport onboard Thai Airways Boeing 777-300 reg. HS-TKF on 19 february 2009. My seating was in Business class cabin. Originally was a 747-400 scheduled for this flight, but the switched equipment to a 777-300 shortly before boarding… Anyway… a very nice flight, enjoying the Royal Silk Class Class service.

Kuwait Airways Riyadh to Bangkok

This is my experience flying with Kuwait Airways last 11 Sep 2010 from Riyadh to Bangkok with 10+hrs stopover in Kuwait. Any passenger with more than 8 hrs stop is entitled for a free accomodation at Safir Airport Hotel with buffet dinner, use of hotel facilities and free wifi. It’s a small but clean & confortable hotel for a short stop. Better than staying at the outdated, messy & confusing main airport. KU planes are old and outdated, seat monitors mostly not functioning. Food and legroom is ok. Flights going to BKK is the same flight going to MNL. The flight was full and only 18 passengers disembark at Suvarnabhumi Airport at that time, myself included. But hey, what can you expect from the airline with the cheapest airfare?
