BANGKOK, 14 July 2020: Expectations that Thai International may resume flights in August are fading fast after the airline extended its suspension until 1 September at the earliest.
It had earlier intimated that scheduled services could resume 1 August, but that became unlikely as the airline awaits a crucial decision in the Bankruptcy Court later this month on its financial restructuring plan.
Confirming comments from reliable sources in the airline, it is now targeting a relaunch 1 September.
The planned startups filed by the reservations system as of this week will still be conditional on travel restrictions and whether Thailand and the listed destinations continue to ease Covid-19 measures.
Flight restart first week of September.
