I’ve always found Thai to be better than Cathay and Singapore, even in economy class. Haven’t flown with them since 2006. They still look very good. The food and service still looks great and after seeing this video I would fly them again today
Great video, great service. My favourite part had to be the engine spool during takeoff and the sunset and sunrise. I actually love flights that take you from sunset all the way to daybreak. Hope to experience such flights soon. Spectacular service by Thai there. Greetings from Ghana❤❤
Great video and great service. But also, the takeoff roar here was one of, if not the best one I've ever listened to in a video by Simply Aviation and maybe in general; so congratulations to (apart from Rolls-Royce 😂) Simon and his camera equipment for the beauty and quality of recording 🤩
Thai Airways catering never disappoints even on their Economy Class, always delicious! For me TG has one of the best catering services after Turkish Airlines.
I just had a direct comparison between Thai and Emirates, as I was (unfortunately rebooked from Thai to Emirates due to some technical problems) flying from Stockholm via Dubai to Melbourne on Emirates and from Melbourne to Stockholm via Bangkok on the way back in the last three weeks. The Emirates seat, service and food from Stockholm to Dubai was a 1/10 in business, on the A380 I would rate the seat as pretty good, the service, the food and the atmosphere was mediocre and I would give it a 3/10. On the way back from MEL to BKK the seat, the service and the food was excellent on Thai, only the entertainment system is lacking, I would rate it a 9/10, on the BKK to ARN same again, excellent crew, delicious food, 5 times wet towels, just the entertainment system is not on par, I would rate it a 9/10 again. I do fly 200.000 miles a year and would rate Thai due to the excellent crews and food as my current favourite airline. Qatar has a better seat and entertainment, BA also has a better seat and entertainment, JAL is on par seat and foodwise, just the crews are totally akward (and I speak Japanese), Singapore, the seat, food, entertainment and mostly the crews are lovely, Cathay is hit and miss, Lufthansa is mediocre and Finnair has a nice lounge and hard product, the crews are hit and miss.
It’s nice to see a tripreport from Simon again! Thai business class is good, even though their A350s aren’t that new. Thanks to Simply Aviation and personally to Simon for this marvelous tripreport 😀👍✈️
Wow, it’s Simon again! Glad to see him back :) Will there be a brutally honest review of Garuda Indonesia? They are one of the forgotten five star airlines from SCAMtrax.
An excellent trip report buddy. Good shots, especially in the details and the incredible roar of the engines at takeoff. Thanks for sharing. Waiting for more videos like this, congratulations. Have an excellent week.👍
Finally Business class comrades! VERY GOOD VIDEO! IT'S GOOD TO SEE BUSINESS CLASS AGAIN! Btw I thought that Thai has BC lounge too... I know it's so expensive but I very like business class tripreports!😅😮😂
I flew with Thai Airways (Business) from Sydney to London once. The plane's interior was quite of poor quality but apart from that the food, the lounge and the services were awesome.
Nice presentation Simon 👍🏻. A suggestion … please show the menu because some of us don’t tolerate seafood at all and would like to see the other choices on offer. I always travel with ear plugs in my front pocket because I never know if there will be a child whose ear pressure makes them uncomfortable and open to letting everyone else know that they are 😩
Thai really took a hit during covid, glad they are trying to make a come back. But even before that I felt the business class was in need of an upgrade itself. The service is great but the plane and seats are sub par, compared to sone of the middle east airlines. I do have to say though that their economy class can be a great deal
I'm happy for you Simon. Coming to my country with a pleasant and wonderful flight. I'm truely approved how the flight in this video went so far and smooth! (i'll leave this for Simon)
@@Pakanin wow, that's a surprising omission on what looked like a pretty great trip otherwise. I don't get to travel as much as I'd like to, but I'd feel pretty confident that eyeshades would be one thing I *didn't* need to have taking up space in my bag on a business class trip lol
anyone who travels long haul a lot buys their own blindfold, special ones with an outward bulge so that it doesn't irritate your eyelashes and they let a lot less light in too, I don't use ear plugs, I use Samsung noise cancelling earphones that I put memory foam tips on to totally block any sound, I often don't plug them in to anything, just put them in my ears and hit the ANC button for silence
Great videos guys. I'm a big fan. In your experience, what do you think is the best way to search and book flights? Google flights? Skyscanner?. Other?. Thanks
Always wanted to fly business class but I really can't justify the extra price for what you get. sure you get some extra leg room and a bigger seat, but honestly its like 4 times the price of economy. It's just not worth it.
Must admit any review should automatically show what the menu alternate even if it’s just a scan of the menu. Based on a single main course I’d be reluctant to fly them - sorry.
