Haha! That's because LGW is where all the cool kids are - god knows why they let me fly out of it...

Good timings, probably designed for O&D, but does connect to the ex-Asia midnight runs.

Nah, they'd lose too much cargo.

I reckon there'll be a 4th daily by the end of the year. No knowledge, just a hunch.

Good grief! Would that make BKK EK's most served LH destination in terms of flight frequency? LHR has 6 daily flights, so...

Yes, it's the busiest outstation on the network with 8, soon to be 9 flights departing a day (don't forget the BKK-HKG and BKK-SYD-CHC continuations: there are non-negligible amounts of pax who originate at BKK especially on the BKK-HKG sector of 385).

They also have fun scheduling: LHR's 6 daily are spaced relatively evenly throughout the day, BKK has a morning, afternoon, evening (9pm) then 3 flights within 90 minutes at 0115, 0225 and 0240. load factors consistently in the 80-90s too...!

Timings seem odd for connections?

In terms of the current schedule you have going DXB-BKK and v.v.:

EK376/377 0340/1250 // 1540/1900
EK372/373 0940/1855 // 2105/0050
EK370/371 1520/0055 // 0225/0535
EK374/375 2230/0735 // 0930/1300

EK384/385 0300/1215 // 0115/0445
EK418/419 0850/1810 // 0240/0545

In terms of connections ex-DXB, EK384 and EK376 take on the bulk of the lunchtime ex-EU departures and evening MENA, i.e. flights that arrive at around DXB peak c.0000.

EK418 and EK372 pick up the morning traffic at DXB, i.e. flights that have come in from evening the day before ex-EU, morning shuttles in the region and some US flights.

That leaves EK374 as the morning ex-EU connector and EK370 which is pretty much the local O&D service.

For the return, all the late flights - i.e. 385/371/419 all connect to the ex-DXB morning rush (i.e. morning flights to Europe and the US, hence the frequency required ex-BKK: there is no lunchtime connecting demand ex-BKK as evidenced by only EK377 servicing it; that's more for DXB residents).

EK377 does the O&D demand, leaving EK373 - which does a mixture of O&D and midnight peak connections - and EK375 doing the lunchtime EU and GCC departures.

BKK scheduling is very optimised towards connecting to the various waves, especially for EU departures, which is no surprised given the passenger profile.
