Buying tickets for a Thai Airways flight

Tickets for this flight were bought in a devilish haste, the day before departure, and cost 37,060 rubles, although the standard cost is about 5 thousand rubles cheaper. Fare type: economy class with 30 kg of free baggage. By the way, Thai Airways is the only airline that makes direct flights to Auckland from Bangkok. If you fly with connections, then you can get there for almost a penny - at Air Asia, when searching for air tickets per month, the price for this flight is only ~ 10,000 rubles one way + luggage surcharge! So, if the fact that the flight duration will almost double due to the docking in Kuala Lumpur does not bother you, then for the sake of economy, you can choose this option. I needed to get there as quickly as possible, so I had to pretty much unfasten the cache. Aviasales helped to find the cheapest tickets; on other aggregator sites and the official website of the airline, it was published, albeit not globally, but more expensive.

Boeing 777-300 a / k Thai Airways

Thai Airways check-in

Departure took place from the main airport of Bangkok - Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK). It is worth noting that due to the importance of the company, the airport is filled with entire zones assigned to this air carrier, where you can do everything from buying tickets to checking in for a flight exclusively at a specific counter. The plane is a large Boeing 777-300 for 364 passengers. Seating for 3 seats in 3 rows.

I tried online check-in for the flight, because ended up at the airport 7 hours before departure, but on the Thai Airways website, according to the selected fare, only seats were offered near the aisle or in the middle, and even then closer to the back of the plane. This prospect did not smile at me, so it was decided to check in at the airline counter and ask the operator to sit me at the window. This scheme works almost always, well, unless you are flying some kind of Victory - if possible, then in most cases they will go to a meeting and put you wherever you want.

By the way, there is free wi-fi at Suvarnabhumi Airport. In order to connect, you will have to register, indicating your email and passport data. It is given for exactly 2 hours, but there is a small life hack! As soon as the time runs out, you can re-register with other passport data, but the email you still need to indicate the valid one - it contains information with a login / password to connect. But, something we digress, let's move on to the flight review. 🙂

Food on board Thai Airways

The boarding of the flight was delayed by about an hour, and a representative of the airline twice went out to those waiting with an apology for the delay. The flight itself lasted about 11 hours and took place at night.

The flight review will mainly focus on the most important moment during the trip by air: food on board, or more precisely, serving dinner and, in my case, breakfast. 🙂 By the way, if you are flying first or business class, then during online check-in, you can choose your meals on board in advance.

After landing, about an hour later, the passengers were given disposable towels, after a while they were given individual portions of cashew nuts and drinks, including non-alcoholic (water, juices - apple, orange and tomato, soda) and alcoholic (beer, whiskey, White wine).

Dinner

Dinner was served about 40 minutes later.

The choice was: steamed fish with vegetables, chicken with rice and a vegetarian option - baked vegetables. I chose the first option.
What is noteworthy, in parallel with serving trays with dinner, the staff at the same time brought the entire salon to the trash and indulged in sodomy hot (!) Bread, represented by portioned buns (wheat or barley, to choose from), and bottled water without gas.

Clickable photo - you can look at the diet better.

Main dish
Presented with boiled vegetables (potatoes, carrots and broccoli) and steamed fish with a creamy cheese sauce with herbs. Everything is too healthy, and therefore moderately tasty.

Cold snacks
They were presented with a salad of seaweed and soy meat (spicy enough, but tasty), portioned processed cheese with mushrooms, butter and crackers in an individual package (three pieces each).

Dessert
For dessert, there was a decent slice of lemon cheesecake. And to it hot drinks - you could choose between tea or coffee, with the ability to add sugar or cream to taste.

Each tray has been complemented by pepper, salt, wet and dry napkins and cutlery as per the standards.

Breakfast

About three and a half hours before boarding, it was breakfast time.
The morning meal was also presented in several variations to choose from: teats with an omelette, a slice of potato gratin and fresh tomatoes, or fried potato slices with sausage and beans. I took the first combo set. Apart from that, there was probably a vegetarian option, but it was not announced this time. As before, passengers were offered bottled water and hot bread to choose from - a croissant or a sandwich bun.

Main dish
Chicken sausage wrapped in an omelet is quite worthy of attention. The potato casserole played a secondary role due to its size, but it was not superfluous.

Cold snacks
This time they were presented in a more varied form. The set included fresh fruit (a slice of apple, pamels, pineapple, pears and grapes), yogurt, Multifruit juice, strawberry jam and butter.

After that the ritual with hot drinks was repeated again, as in the previous time. There were no changes in equipment with devices, spices and napkins.

Outcome:

My impressions of the flight were extremely positive. At the bottom there are ratings for different categories with comments.

Airplane - 9 out of 10
The aircraft is large, modern, with a comfortable seat spacing, even in economy class. The chairs are equipped with a special footrest that allows you to change the position at least a little during the entire journey.
Among other things, it is possible to watch films, listen to music, participate in a virtual guide to the city-destination. If necessary, you can charge your electronic devices - the socket is located under the chair. Each passenger is given disposable headphones, a pillow and a blanket.

Crew - 10 out of 10
There are no claims to the crew. They work in a well-coordinated and organized manner. It is worth noting the lack of deliberate courtesy, which sometimes makes you feel awkward.

Meals - 8 out of 10
In general, I liked everything, but for my personal taste, sometimes the food seemed either undersalted or oversalted. I was surprised by the presence of spicy food (salad), which not everyone will like. Among other things, yogurt at high altitude is a rather dangerous enterprise, so be careful when opening the package.
