Can you please provide link/reference? I don't see anything like that on AirlineRoute... These are the two latest entries related to TG:
  1. http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/...as-of-26jan17/
  2. http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/...as-of-26jan17/
All I can ascertain from that is that A350 will be flying BKK-BRU as of 1 August 2017, BKK-FRA until 28 October 2017 and BKK-LHR from 1 September 2017... That would suggest Australia is off the drawing board...

Correct. Double 77W daily from August. Potential 350 from October on one daily.

one of the dailies in May should be a 77W?

ExpertFlyer shows me that in mid-May (13-19), the earlier MEL-BKK at 15:15 TG466 is a 77W, the later flight TG462 is a 772.

I have an upcoming flight to MEL (TG461) in mid of October. When I booked the flight it was scheduled on the A350. Now it has changed to B773, So it seems there will be no A350 to MEL in the near future.

The overnight flight #465 is an A350. This was changed last month.

TG461: 777-300ER
TG465: A350

Obviously TG465 is subject to change.

Per routesonline.

Haha, 'tentatively'. They should put that on all of Thai's aircraft allocations!

What's the exact date? Unusual for them to have the 773 on a flight of late. (I did a quick search from, June 23 onwards and they're all showing 77Ws still...)

Oh wow! That is strange, and bad luck. And it just seems to be that Monday the 26th - the 19th for example shows the 77W

No worries, knowing TG, it can change at anytime
