Flight:Thai Airways , Frankfurt To Bangkok Boeing 747- 400

[LarrryBB]

FRA- BKK ..No inflight entertainment and lots of grumpy folk on the return flight. Prefer flying via AUH with Etihad

[comsfan09]

I know the wings are supposed to move so they don't break, but DAMN that wing moves a lot.

[lauriersroses333]

it suck, no tv screen on the seats !!!

[hajo2503]

@lauriersroses333 Now, they have



[lauriersroses333]

@hajo2503 on 747 ?? i dnt think so, yes thai have on airbus and on 777

[runway34r]

4:28 OMG THE BUTTER MOVED!!!!!!!!!

[mraquinas]

I am wondering why Thai still uses their 747 regional (old) configuration for their 921 rounte. I am pretty sure as usual in flight and ground services are fantastic on all Thai flights, but not even AVOD on a 10 hours flight is only can be called 'bad'....

[am1966ath]

THAI uses their fleet forever before getting new aircrafts, same as in the 1980s, had old,ugly,worn out DC10 and B747...while SIA gets new planes on a regular basis.

[funnorthwestboy]

Wish they flew out of Seattle, but we just have Eva and Hainan.

[baierlh]

tomorrow its time for me to fly with them :)

[sebirius970]

OMG doesnt thai airwas have a tv like on the chair like ur own individual one !! ?????? plzz respond i need to know :)

[4duff5]

No none of there 747s have individual TVs there only on A340 and B777s have them

[plushest2]

no they don't

[icecoldkilla08]

they do but the Boeing 747 on this video is old.. so they have refurbished them all.. so all of Thai Airways 747, a340 and so has TV's now.

[TheChrisu79]

@icecoldkilla08 :

There is no personal TV in Thai 747 economy class!

[Anomyzz]

@TheChrisu79 so what, bring your own ipod, the service is really good.

[NeverSoftProductions]

Of cousre^^ Thai air does own Tv's in every seat^^ We booked 1 class and in every seat there was a tv with about 300 movies which are actualy in the cinema^^ and in a lot of languages^^

It will be great when we will fly to thailand :P

Sorry 4 bad english ;)

[harkamalchana]

Too bad that you were sitting on the wing. Overall great video. I like Thai Airways. The flight attendants are very friendly and the food is good.

[lonelyHill147]

YES , Suvannaphum is awesome !

Smooth as silk ! XD

[ANTMfan26]

suvarnabhumi airport is awesome

[TheCARRE74]

[TheCARRE74]

Hello!Great flight to Bangkok and nice flight!How long time you flight to Bangkok from Frankfurt?

I like passenger flight and flight video!

I give you 5 star!I dont flight to Bangkok.

Thank you I got sharing your flightvideo.

Greeting TheCARRE74=)

[shari94]

about 10 hours

[hugit4249]

Good video and GREAT airline. I have flown supposed 5 star airlines and other top airlines but these airlines usually have surly or miserable flight attendents. Thai's service is brilliant with genuine smiles and who cares about no personal screens - you get great leg room. Take an iPod or personal DVD player. Thai Airways to Thailand is the best by far!

[shari94]

my mom went from fra-bankok with the same plane and said it was horrible..everything was full/loud and not very nice..she will never fly with thai again...qatar airways are the best! believe me! and theres more (leg)room

[avesraggiana]

If your mother wants to experience an airline she'll never want to fly again, she ought to fly any, ANY US carrier, international or domestic. No food (on domestic flights), no legroom, no pillows , no blankets, no orchids, no flight attendant uniform change, no overhead bin space, no IFE, and lots and lots of inconsiderate passengers and fat, old and bitter flight attendants who should have retired a long time ago....then I suggest your mother give Thai another go.

[shari94]

haha...yeah thats right..we never flew with an us-airline and i never will!..they scare me!...they have so many accidents, too

[am1966ath]

@hugit4249 when they go on time and everything works..I ve had some miserable longhaul flights on THAI...SIA and EMIRATES are way ahead of THAI.

their old IFE sometimes break down also...and the awful english their staff speaks.

[TheHugit4249]

@am1966ath - I have not been fortunate enough to fly SIA, but I hear that they're great. Have flown Emirates before and was not impressed. Perhaps I had been too hyped up with what to expect on EK. Still like TG but agree that flights can be a bit miserable especially when they are 100% full. Have got a bit fed up with non stop long distance flights so now seek out Qatar Airways to BKK with a short stop in DOH to stretch the old legs.

[am1966ath]

@TheHugit4249 Qatar airways is good, but Doha airport is not great, and at transfer time in the middle of the night its very crowded. If you don t travel in premium class(first or business) you can pay extra to get acces to a lounge,relax,internet and shower and buffer of fruits,drinks etc...blieve me, the transit are is overcrowding with arabs and Indians/Bangladeshi at midnight.

hardly a seat.

[am1966ath]

@TheHugit4249 Ive travelled with Qatar to Muscat and Hongkong so I have some experience.

[am1966ath]

@TheHugit4249 You can also go on Etihad or Gulf air......Abu Dhabi airport is great for transit but see to it that transit time is not an eternity okey, thats a problem with emirates..some horrible transit stopps in Dubai..6-8hours..awful.

[lauriersroses333]

@hugit4249 personal.screen tv is important for long trip as europe to asia

[lauriersroses333]

@hugit4249 i have flown with emirates,lufthansa, and swiss airlines, the sevice was good and no surly flight attendants :) u probably was unlucky :)

[Nimmdenbus]

@hugit4249, you´re so funny!! Ever been on a 14 1/2 hour leg from let´s say DXB - SYD?? And no chance than watching what they have to offer? NO WAY! Even for a 7h flight I want to decide what to watch myself. Big screen for everyone is 60s standard, not 2011!!! Wanted to try Thai for my next trip DUS-CHC but good that I saw this vid. Will stick with Emirates then. Did the trip 4 times and the DXB Lounge is really annoying but at least I have 600 Movies/TV-Shows I can choose of.

[futurepilot2394]

WHOAAAA!!! damnnn 10 hours .....your but must have been hurting!!!.......anyways that landing looked really smooth and slooww!

[Dangthom]

Toronto to Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific (little leg room, but good entertainment and food)....all for 16.5 hours of flight non-stop

[peteboy1113]

how long was the flight. i love the -747-400. great upper class i hear thia airways is great. do they have a new economy section .

[asianteen1990]

WHAT?? no pvts?? seriously?? how can they survive with more than 10 hours of flight??

[sfotpe]

What an outdated cabin...............

[19bootsy68]

Great video, I love the B747.400 with no IFE on the seat in front, I have found out that Thai will now use a A340 on the daylight flight out of Heathrow and the good old B747.400 on the night time flight out of Heathrow, Thai are the best for legroom 34 inches but on the A340.500 you get 36 inches, Im not that sure on the A340 from Heathrow it could be a A340.600 and the legroom is 34 inches on the that one...But still very good and if you like the IFE then its great..

[hadekul]

I can not understand why people choose to travel to Thailand in the rainy season there. I would never go there during the rainy season. Field instead between December and March, much better weather then.

[hades47826]

now that was one smooth landing.. gr8 vid

[risewiththelive1]

TG is great, and so is this video :)

[thefsxflyer2]

i LOOVE thai airways:P
