And product-wise: Thai smile can by no means be compared to Biz-section on a mainline (longhaul) aircraft (equipment).....If I had to chose from I would definitely go for the slightly higher fare with about 8-10 daily flight options....

TG217 or TG221 are 747 and because this is peak season you might get lucky and get an F suite. These and all the other flights are all available at the 9,550 fare. You have to select this fare for the flights not to be greyed out.
