Due to an upsurge in demand Emirates will operate daily A380 ex Gatwick from 10th December.

Back to UK looks like its via BKK !

Commencing 3rd July Thai Airways will commence flights LHR to Phuket. This is the trial opening of visitors to Thailand who have been double vaccinated.

I think BA commencing flights LHR-BKK in November gives the biggest hint for when Thailand borders will open up to tourism.

BA are now accepting bookings for LHR-BKK direct from 31st Oct 21 using 787-9 Dreamliner.
