Emirates Airbus A380 landing Bangkok Suvarnabhumi airport and taxi to the terminal

Emirates Airbus A380 landing Bangkok Suvarnabhumi airport and taxi to the terminal. Departed DXB at 04:15 hours, landed BKK at 12:25 hours.

I don't really like this aircraft. On any other aircraft type, the gap between the inner and outer windows is only a couple of centimetres or so, but on the A380, it's around 12 centimetres. This impedes your view out of the window and prevents you from taking near vertical shots of the ground.

@Catdogfisher, hi there, sorry I didn't reply before: been away in Thailand for a couple of months and only got back yesterday evening. As regards your question, I'm afraid I don't know the answer to it. Emirates seems to broadcast announcements in many languages. It sounds like Arabic, but I can't been sure.

I heard that same music in Emirates boeing 777-300 ER when I had landed in Singapore, I also want to know where I can get it from.

@Ivan13521

Maybe contact Emirates via their site and ask them what it's called. It may be something composed especially for them like the music Dragonair (part of Cathay Pacific Airways) plays during landing. In that particular case, ask them for a copy.

@Xircal supply and demand. They have a lot of demand even for domestic routes, so they use big aircraft because it's more economic.

@JakubRacek1 @JakubRacek1 Yes, Thai is a wild airline. They use a 747 for the flight between Phuket and Bangkok and that only 1:15 hr flight. You can see it on my Channel for the Dragonair landing in Phuket I uploaded. The Thai 747 is visible preparing for takeoff just as the flight I was on prepares to land. You also see it takeoff and to me it looked pretty steep and way too soon. Glad I wasn't on that one.

@Xircal nice :D

but i was a bit surprised when i founf out than thai uses such an big airplane (a330-300) for flights from Bangkok to Krabi.... it is only about hour flight so i dont understand why dont they use they 737s... but i am statisfied but i dont think its too economic...but it was very comfortable. And also at first i thought a380 wil be such an great airplane and i dont know i like boeings better

[Xircal]

@JakubRacek1 I did it deliberately actually. Thai doesn't fly to Amsterdam where I live and I wanted to see what their flights were like. But no PTV although the seats were very comfortable and they gave me lots of beer :)

[JakubRacek1]

@Xircal wow that had to be very bad... i went on a380 from dubai there and on the back journey too

[Xircal]

@JakubRacek1 Did you fly on it on the return journey as well? I came back on a codeshare flight operated by Thai, but it was a really old 777 with no PTV.
