if on one ticket and luggage checked through doable
normally at that time, there are not so long queues at transit security. If there are long queues, tell the agent and they will let you ev. jump the queue
there are 2 international transit securities, East (A/B/C/D intersection) and West (D/E/F/G intersection)

A question about GUP....do they have to be consumed within the period of Gold membership ? For example, my Gold expires Dec 31, '18. I haven't decided yet wether to stay with Thai or go to another Star member. I have one GUP left. Do I need to ticket and complete travel before 31/12., or just ticket and commence the journey. Mine would be FRA-BKK-MEL-BKK-FRA. I'm hoping just commence but I have some vague memory that it must be completed. Advice, please.
cheers

GUP I you get at the end of the qualifying period, if you requalify and it is valid until the end of the next period
GUP II you get for additional miles flown and validity is much shorter, 6 months
if the one you have is a GUP I so it likely expires on 31.12.2018, you need to purchase a upgradable ticket and upgrade this ticket before that date but you can fly as well after that date
you see the GUP and it's expiry date on your online ROP account

BKK-USM Disappeared?
Hi all - I’m looking to book a redemption USM-BKK-HKG next year. Have been monitoring for a while waiting for it to become bookable, however as of yesterday the USM-BKK leg has disappeared.
Checked the TG website and it seems to be unavailable from summer 2018 onwards. I know the route is well served be PG so wondered if TG had pulled it, or if it had just temporarily disappeared because of an IT glitch or schedule update?

this would have been in the media if TG pulls out and also would come as a big surprise

I've got a 1.5 hour connection coming up. KUL-BKK-HKG. Will there be anytime to dive into a (Priority Pass) lounge? Not flown into BKK before so have no idea what's what.

probably around 20-30 minutes depending on arrival and departure gate and whether transit security is busy or not
