TG LHR/BKK Schedule changes from 1st April 2013

Thanks to Sam Bee for highlighting this over in the TG Forum :- LHR Switch Again

Basically, TG910/11 and TG916/17 are changing from Airbus A340-600's back to Boeing 747s (hopefully the recently refitted ones!).

Small timechanges (all less than 1 hour) are implemented for all 4 flights from 1st April 2013.

As this routing was common on BMI redemptions, and may still feature in a few future redemptions, I thought it useful to highlight here.

Here are the details :-

Current Schedule

Thai Airways Intl (TG 911)
dep: 11:50 - London (LHR) terminal 3
arr: 06:10 +1 day(s) - Bangkok (BKK)
equipment: Airbus Industrie A340-600

Thai Airways Intl (TG 917)
dep: 21:35 - London (LHR) terminal 3
arr: 15:55 +1 day(s) - Bangkok (BKK)
equipment: Airbus Industrie A340-600

Thai Airways Intl (TG 910)
dep: 00:15 - Bangkok (BKK)
arr: 06:20 - London (LHR) terminal 3
equipment: Airbus Industrie A340-600

Thai Airways Intl (TG 916)
dep: 13:30 - Bangkok (BKK)
arr: 19:35 - London (LHR) terminal 3
equipment: Airbus Industrie A340-600

From 1st April 2013

Thai Airways Intl (TG 911)
dep: 12:30 - London (LHR) terminal 3
arr: 06:05 +1 day(s) - Bangkok (BKK)
equipment: Boeing 747 All Series Passenger

Thai Airways Intl (TG 917)
dep: 21:30 - London (LHR) terminal 3
arr: 15:05 +1 day(s) - Bangkok (BKK)

Thai Airways Intl (TG 910)
dep: 01:10 - Bangkok (BKK)
arr: 07:15 - London (LHR) terminal 3

Thai Airways Intl (TG 916)
dep: 12:50 - Bangkok (BKK)
arr: 18:55 - London (LHR) terminal 3

Let's hope it doesn't cause significant hassle for those with future redemptions (including me!) on this route.
