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.

GBVery poor service I flew codeshare with Thai Air, having booked on Turkish Airlines. I tried to book seats on the phone for our return flight, as we did not book direct with Thai Airlines. Kept on hold, no reply. At the airport all seats booked on the return flight to Turkey. My husband and I had to seat separately, both in middle seats - 3 seat plane. We ordered vegetarian food, and ended up with inedible vegan food! Obviously, Thai does not understand the difference between vegetarian and vegan. Entertainment on plane was poor, I had to ask for a blanket on an overnight flight as they had not put one on my seat. No amenity kit given, unlike Turkish Airlines. Cabin crew, practically non existent, after serving food. Avoid this airline, unless you are looking for below par service.

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.

GBI had a good experience with Thai airways I had a good experience with Thai airways on my flight London-Bangkok. It was an overnight flight, seats were comfortable enough so I managed to sleep through most of the night. Film collection was a bit limited but there were some recent movies available. Food was a bit of a small portion and a bit tasteless, but was ok and perfectly edible. Their staff at the airport were helpful when we couldn't find my boyfriend's backpack, and called us promptly when the person who took it by mistake returned it.

THNo compassion on Thai Airways I had fallen and broke my foot while on holiday. Had booked a wheelchair but because that was pre booked I could not change my seats online. The doctor had written a letter to state that i should be upgraded to business class due to it being necessary to keep my foot elevated. Upon arrival at the airport they were not willing to change my seat not upgrade to business without paying the full fee. I begged if I could just sit there seeing the seat was available without any extra or at least pay a discounted fee, however they did not care even with a medical certificate.
