The connection is really very tight, only 55 minutes in BKK. Will they even leave me in the FCL for a while?

Thanks!
I doubt they even stock pajamas on a 2 hr flight.

You should expect a whole heap of awesome. Seriously. I've flown some shorter F segments on other carriers like CX, QR and QF. TG was not a disappointment.

Here is my detailed TR:

if you arrive on time or early, yes you will be escorted to FCL even transfer time is only 55 minutes; otherwise you can ask and board a bit later
Thanks, BinSabai! Let's see what I'll get.

Thanks, Jermyn. Very nice TR indeed! This is not going to be my first experience on TG F, as I've flown HKG BKK last year in their 380. I was not even supposed to fly with them in my next trip to Asia, but when I realized I have the the chance be in such a nice cabin again, I opted for it.

What shorter F segments have you flown on CX may I ask ?

For CX F JFK-YVR, you get slippers, caviar, PJ, and amenity kit. For TG F Japan-BKK, you get no caviar, no PJ unless it is a redeye, you don't even get slippers for the shorter BKK-HKG in F !

I got no slippers HKG-HND in F. The breakfast was not very good either.

I was impressed by CX service on HKG-TPE a few months back.

Amenity kit was Porsche and slippers given on NRT to BKK the other day in F on A380. There was a hand held sign for cart service upon arrival to immigration Fast Track. After that you are on your own.

usually they should also take care of your luggage, pick it from the belt and bring it through customs to your limousine, taxi or train
probably they lost track of you after immigration as people in charge change there

Actually only had carry or roller board on. After immigration cleared customs on my own then down one level to taxi. Thank you for the clarification.
