I would consider cutting the stay short by a night if anyone thought that the difference in flights (seat quality/service mix) would be worth it. Looks like the flight switch would most likely mean Bkk-Europe-IAD vs BKK-PEK-IAD which ends up being a quicker trip.
Thanks again
Personally I would be taking TG F via Europe over UA F any day of the week! If you can make changes close to travel date too, then you might have a chance of doing something like BKK-FRA-IAD with TG F on the refurbed 747 and then FRA-IAD with LH F on the A333 ^ Connection time is a bit long at 3hr40 but it's not the end of the world since you will be in the FCL/FCT at FRA anyway ^
