Passengers can also connect onwards from Bangkok to a host of destinations across Asia and Europe, but on that Sydney-Bangkok leg, the airline's business class … Medical Outlet. Surprised youre not a member of any FF program. These are people who truly love their job and helping others, which blows my mind considering how different things are here back at home in the US. Just note that a ‘cappuccino’ on Thai Airways is more of a chocolate-coffee drink rather than a coffee drink with chocolate powder sprinkled on top as you’d find in Aussie cafes:Thai Airways doesn’t offer full ‘any time dining’ in business class – instead, the second meal of the flight can be ordered at any time after the main service: perfect if you’re peckish throughout the afternoon and don’t want to wait until closer to landing, but doesn't give you the flexibility to work first and take your first meal later in the flight.The options given were a rice noodle soup with braised beef; salty fish fried rice with prawns or a Turkish bread roll with grilled herb chicken, Swiss cheese and onion relish, and having tried the Thai option earlier in the flight, we were content with the Western-style roll:Thai’s wine list is all-French with Veuve Clicquot Brut (NV) joined by two whites from the Loire Valley and Burgundy, two reds also from Burgundy and Bordeaux, and one dessert wine from the same region – but while those we tasted were pleasing, wines don’t Whisky choices included Chivas Regal 12-year and Johnnie Walker Black Label, with Prince Hubert de Polignac XO the Cognac of choice and a range of other spirits available too.15-inch seatback screens deliver movies, TV shows, music and games throughout the flight, and handily show your flight number on the home page to help you complete any necessary arrivals cards…… although our system crashed before we’d even left the runway and needed to be rebooted after take-off:A nearby passenger had the same issue but both reboots did the trick, and while noise-cancelling headphones were provided, ours were of poor quality – delivered with a broken pin and a crackling cable – so we ditched these in favour of our own, rather than asking for a new set.We also found it best to operate the screen via touch rather than using the in-arm remote control, which only responded to our actions when we squished each key down as hard as we possibly could.Cabin crew on today’s flight responded promptly to drink requests and addressed passengers by name initially, reverting to a more generic “sir” and “ma’am” soon after, but served meals in a very sporadic way: our seatmate had finished their dessert before we’d received our first bite of food.Overall, Thai Airways’ Boeing 747 business class service is a decent-enough way to fly from Sydney to Bangkok during daylight hours, but on overnight journeys where sleep takes priority, the same can’t be said.We hope that when Thai Airways eventually retires its Boeing 747s from Sydney, they’ll be replaced by a jet with a more competitive and up-to-date business class seat – at the very least, one that extends completely flat.Chris Chamberlin is the Associate Editor of Executive Traveller, and lives by the motto that a journey of a thousand miles begins not just with a single step, but also a strong latte, a theatre ticket, and later in the day, a good gin and tonic.This really is an awful J seat in 2017 – I’ve flown it a few times I opted for the chicken fried rice, which actually ended up being fried chicken in regular rice.
Its good to see Thai have finally The flight was operated by Thai Airways Boeing 747-400, and while I was traveling in business class, I got to experience the airline’s first class seat given that there is no “real first class” sold on the route.While dropping off my bag – which only took a minute or so – I tried to ask if it was possible to change my seat from 3K to either 1A or 1K, or an upper deck seat (although that would mean “downgrade” to an actual business class seat).Neither of those was possible since 1A and 1K were occupied and the whole upper deck was closed (as it later turned out, it was occupied by deadheading crew members).With my bag on its way to the aircraft, I cleared security check and walked towards I left the lounge around 7:40 and headed towards gate B5 where the flight was scheduled to depart from at 8:30AM. I mean, it should be obvious by now how bad of a thing I’ve got for that sweet yellow fruit from the tropics, so the fact that it wasn’t even an option left me a bit disappointed.The second meal service was served with roughly two hours of flying time remaining, and was much lighter in substance. We booked the flight via United MileagePlus, for 100,000 miles plus about $64 in taxes and fees.
