It seems Manchester will eventually get its Thai flights after all. From the Bangkok Post .......................

 

"Thai Airways International is spreading its wings to five new destinations: Moscow, Johannesburg, Berlin, Sendai in Japan, and Manchester.

 

The scheduled flights to Moscow and Johannesburg are set to start in November and December respectively, while flights to the three other cities are expected to begin between 2006 and 2007......................

 

..............Three or four flights a week are planned for the service to Manchester, the airline's second serving city in the UK, in 2007, while it plans to start flying to Sendai three times a week sometime next year.

 

Mr Vasing said the the introduction of new destinations, timing and frequencies would be in line with the airline's fleet expansion and delivery schedules."

 

The timing of the MAN service seems to indicate that it is tied-in to the delivery of Thai's 777ERs which will commence in the latter part of 2006. It's still a bit of a way off but it may be worth taking into account if you are in the habit of accumulating airmiles.

Be nice to see and give another option from heathrow.

Also most of the thai 747`s i have been on are the older ones with no personal inflight entertainment, just the big screen which isn`t as good.

New planes and an airport near pattaya, cannot be bad for us brits :rolleyes:
