Thai website not working?
Is it me? Regardless of what platform I use the 'Book Now' button on the Thai Airways website appears not to be working. Anyone else experiencing this? I've tried mobile, laptop plus multiple browsers

Multi-city workable workaround!
Cheers, D

I ran into this issue earlier in the week.
But on Tuesday I was able to pull up an itinerary.
So it seems to be intermittent.

In Thailand every Web site of any significance, in particular government web sites, only ever "guarantee" that they'll work with Internet Explorer. It more than halves the investment in IT they have to make by standardising on a single browser. I can often start a booking in Chrome or Firefox but end up with a server error and remember {groan, groan} that with TG it's Microsoft or nothing (and sometimes both even then)

There was a month or two long period where TG site wouldn't work at all for me on Chrome. Endless loop.
That said, I use a mac which won't run Explorer and have booked plenty of tix on TG over the years using Safari/Firefox/Chrome with no real problem.
