I already enjoyed 4 bus rides with TG within the last week. All of them were in connection with a flight on AB6 equipment. In Don Muang I also had most of my bus rides before/after flying AB6.

Is there something with this a/c type and the contact gates in BKK?

Though I saw some AB6 parked at the gates it still looked like the majority were parked at remote parking stands.
