Euh...the ones who booked prior to all these events maybe I had booked in September 19 for June 20 Also the ones who are desperate to get out and back without the hassles currently imposed and will take the opportunity to do so as soon as the conditions are relaxed ????

JeffersLos Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 So when Covid is under control globally, there's going to be no airlines for people to fly on, and no hotels for them to stay even if there were. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some have booked after their bankruptcy which would be rather stupid. 37 minutes ago, JeffersLos said: So when Covid is under control globally, there's going to be no airlines for people to fly on, and no hotels for them to stay even if there were. ????

All their flights (except those organised by Thai government) have been cancelled until October at the earliest, and even that might not happen. Haven't you seen any news at all? The hearing in the bankruptcy court is on August 17 (I think). And they reveiled about a week ago that they had loads of unpaid debts here and there. Debts they never mentioned earlier. If the court don't accept the suggestions for reconstruction Thai Airways has to come up with, no one knows when commercial flights will start again. They are only allowed to do repatriation flights at the moment. Selling tickets for September before even showing up in court is crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QPRFC Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I'm still waiting for a refund on my cancelled flights at end of March 2020, they told me 4-6 weeks, then at week 6 told me 6-8 weeks, then at 9 weeks I see the bankruptcy was filed. This was always smelling fishy.....I hope to never see them fly again TBH, I certainly won't fly with them again!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tso310 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 They have opened booking from October. Does not mean the flights will run but they will have your money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterphuket Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Funny, in Europe we have a government who will protect the customer in case of bankrupt by there national airlines, but in this country you'll get a thick middle finger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not selling it They merely adjust the dates of departure to a later one, although these dates are just for reference and no flights are programmed anymore (only for record) This being said, if one holds a non refundable Thai Airways ticket, as this is my case, and wants to fly it will be issued on another airline ( such as Swiss Air from experience) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never meant bashing Thai air ....mixed in translation probably Only people seems to only put hope on Thai air while others are flying out Thailand .....as Thai air is only delaying whatever they can to spray hope month by month ....they are bankrupt and shall probably highest rise up again under new legal organisation ....dumping their debt as much as possible...

Thai Air is no longer a national airline, the government sold out so they don't own the majority of stocks. However, Thai Air has published that they will fulfill all tickets refunds and flyer bonus. The creditors should, according to the news article I've seen, already have accepted the reconstruction plans, so the court hearing might mainly be formalities. By the way, how many real national airlines do we have left in Europe..? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
