I guess they are forced to use the older planes due to the A350's that they have grounded.
Thailand also only fully reopened to tourists under the test and go programme on 1 Feb with rather short notice so the schedule was probably based on demand pre opening.
My guess is that there are more plane swaps or increase in frequency on the cards as the flights are filling up fast.
True the 787 isn’t bad, but compared to the Qsuite it’s not great. So now that Thailand has opened again, do you think the flights will become Qsuite? With the world still shut down two years into this, I have to imagine they have spare Qsuite planes?
