Cancellation of TG922/ TG923 BKK-FRA starting BKK-DUS Dec 2014

Hi,

I got word that TG922/ TG923 will be cancelled starting Dec 1st - 2014.

Instead they will be starting a BKK-DUS service?!


Any information would be helpful as I am booked on TG922 in December....but TG reservation has no info of this yet - they claim TG922 is just always sold out after Dec 1st......


Thank you!

I have no information but there will still be TG 920/ 921 between FRA and BKK on the A380.

Thumbs down

YUP - confirmed that - but the timing is really different by around 12 hours!

This will mean a lot of trouble for us!

I found the new times to DUS unfortunately are not the "right" timing either!

11. Dez TG 927 DUS 13:15 BKK 05:50 10:35 Std. nonstop

27. Dez TG 926 BKK 00:55 DUS 07:00 12:05 Std. nonstop

Will be interesting what TG will offer as alternatives (SWISS ? ) once they finally find out they are not flying and update my reservation!

TG website still shows BKK-FRA direct flights post Dec 2014 though?

Try to book that flight on the TG website or any other website you will see it is gone!


It is still confirmed because they have not started the rebooking yet!

Only TG 920 / TG 921 will stay - TG 922 / TG923 will be cancelled!

That seems about right - TG is notoriously known to take ages to upload to various systems...

Hopefully it will take them after September 19th to update their current PNR for TG922

Cancellation of TG922/ TG923 BKK-FRA starting BKK-DUS Dec 2014

Just talked with TG on the phone - no confirmation about anything yet, and there was some certain surprise about DUS route.
I was promised to get information within next week.

I tried to dummy booking and no 922/923 option was shown any more.

Seems to be correct, awaiting more info during work hours next week.

More and more systems show the DUS flights and the 2nd cancelled FRA flight!

Ineresting choice by TG to cancel 922/923. Obviously TG is not happy about the loads out of FRA. Now I just hope the don`t cancel or reschedule their MUC route again.

I am very surprised they do DUS with a 747 - it seems a bit big for DUS!
Also not sure if having FRA/ DUS/ MUC with the same timing is really a plus?
I would have thought that having a daytime + several flight at night would beneficial......more choices for the travellers!

Not entirely true on the DUS. DUS schedule is appearing in the OAG, but not in the airline's reservation system.

Can you share with us which systems show the BKK-DUS flight? I just tried directly on TG and three other systems and neither of them has such a flight...
