Work and thailand are words that should never be said together !,. what have you got planned ?, aparently the new 60 day (plus extendable) by 30 days is allowing unlimited border bounces by land, i dont fancy getting taxed on income when i put 800000 bht in thai bank and receive 20000 bht p/week from my pension !, i may just keep my cash in uk and blag visa exempt entries for as long as possible , surely your work permit wont let you do a job a thai person could do, i wouldnt work for a general thai persons daily wage either, surely your eligible for an over 50's retirement o visa ? you seem to be bossing the work permit system anyway, not many do or can be bothered with the expense and hassle cheers.

Flew with Thai LHR-BKK and back in May. On the way there, empty row and able to lie down, on the way back middle seat was free but unable to lie down. Having flown non direct multiple times, I will never do so again. The extra circa 200 quid is so worth it for me. Flying back on the 00:55 flight is also perfect, able to sleep on the plane and then straight back on to UK time when back, even with 12 hour work day the next day I felt fine.

I;m somewhat lost here...your upload of 31st May is on KZbin displayed on smart tv but not laptop for some reason....the £500 one way ticket......I was trying to ask on that video (but can do here anyway) did you have any issues with ground handling at Heathrow at check in over that one way ticket ?? Or did you have an onward ticket (somewhere) anyway ?? I ask as I took that same flight and one way but despite having multi entry visa I was offloaded at check in until I could buy an onward ticket.....clearly they weren't going to be satisfied with one of these "fake" $15 onward tickets and openly told me so so ending up wasting £58 (which wasnt too bad) getting cheapest Vietjet flight I could find out within first 60 days !

I did and online check in on the Thai airways website, printed boarding pass myself at Heathrow then went to bag drop. So I didn't have to interact with any staff who would question the one way ticket. Back drop staff just weigh you bag and tag it. Once landed I wasnt questioned at Bangkok. But I had a online ticket book with onwardticket.com/ It only cost $16 and was "just incase" Maybe it was just circumstance and wasn't questioned that time?

The passport number used to book the flight. I checked in via the Thai Air website and then only needed to print my own boarding pass on a self-service terminal. At this point, you need to scan your passport. So no need to see anybody and hand over your passport. Then when I landed I got a stamp in my passport as usual.

Seems the airlines would rather the plane fly empty than offer lower fares. A lot of flight revues showing lots of empty seats lately. Yet Thailand just announced longer visas stays and easier entry for many nations. As inflation and a falling economy begins to bite. Tough times coming for all these countries that rely on tourism. And airlines bury their heads in the sand rather than fill seays.

Not necessarily. Sometimes this is done intentionally for cargo capacity rather than passenger service. In the context of Thailand, that country does export quite a few things to the UK and Europe, like tropical fruit and veg, fresh tuna/prawns etc. On the return leg the UK does export high end engineering equipment, medical devices etc which may be too high value to sit on a cargo ship for months. The airlines make a huge premium from air cargo, sometimes more than what people pay in the cabin above. It’s the same reason why Turkish Airlines sends A330/A350/787 and even the 777-300ER to Heathrow daily. Unless it’s peak school holiday season, airlines like TK make a loss on their passenger revenue with every wide body they fly to Heathrow. But as far as I’m aware, the bottom of these widebodies are again rammed full of fresh fruit and veg, seafood and perishable goods for the UK supermarkets. Talk about why the cost of Mediterranean sea bass from Turkey at the local fishmonger is so high; it’s because the airlines take a huge premium for bringing it to you.
