Swiss International Airlines - ZRH-BKK-ZRH in Y. Swiss or Thai?

I'm planning a couple of weeks in Thailand in Sep.
If I fly through ZRH, Swiss sells both flights operated by them and flights operated by Thai (Swiss codeshare) at the same price.

Since the price is exactly the same, any recommendations on what to chose?
I'm an FTL with LH if it matters.

Thanks!

I'd go for LX. I like late evening departures and the seat is quite comfortable also in Y. Food is good and usually a good bord atmosphere.

I'd go for TG, because of more generous seat pitch (34'; on LX 31-32').

My vote goes to TG: better seat pitch, better food, more friendly F/A's... IMHO LX is overrated these days...

I find on the contrary that Thai is overrated. Ok the trays are bigger in Y, but the F/As are usually not friendly. And I am not even talking about those awful business class seats.

I avoid them if I can and would go for LX

In case you plan on earning miles on this flight, be very careful with the booking class if you choose for the code share. Last year I did not get the miles on a ticket booked on the LX website, LX flight number but operated by TG - even if during the booking process they promised me 100% miles.

So make sure to check the booking class on the Star Alliance website before buying!

Apart from that, I prefer flying TG above LX on ZHR - BKK, mainly because of the extra legroom.

How can I know which booking class am I being booked to in TG if I'm booking on the LX website?

I couldn't find any such tool on the Star Alliance website.

This is a mystery within Star Alliance and nowhere published. Therefore I personally never book codeshares.
