In so many cases it is not the parents or the relative that picks up the passengers, so if as the OP advised that there are two passengers arriving on two different flights, it is important that there is the one meeting place decided on and he/she makes it clear they or their drivers will not depart this location.
In theory, nothing will go wrong. In practice, things go wrong. To suggest problems "can not happen" if only one flight is involved is naive. We're talking about young children here and I am assuming they do not know their own way around Bangkok.
Accordingly:
- Do not "decide on" a meeting place. Instead, ask TG for the designated handover point and meet your nieces there.
- Do not specify a Bangkok meeting place, this is just asking for problems (you may never see your nieces again)
- Ideally, collect your nieces yourself or have some other 100% trusted person do the collection
Please be wary of those who claim to know better than the airline and thus suggest imposing alternative systems for UMs.
