Loved my experiences on Thai F in the past with inflight, ground service in BKK and of course the spa.

Ranking the cabins I personally experienced, I'd have to say the A380 was my favourite despite having the most seats.
  • A380 (12F)
  • 747 Refurbished (9F)
  • 747 (10F)
  • A340 (8F)
The new 77W F looks reasonably nice and might sit in #3 on that list.

Probably not, this airline is under rehab because its equity is negative.

On the May 7th is flown HS-TKY - an older 773 without F. I thought they fly 7/7 with the new planes with F cabin?

This is pretty cringeworthy and blogger territory - can’t believe they use this as official advertising..

On the plus side, these two planes may be the only ones in the fleet which colours aren’t completely faded

I am not sure about the mini (rows 11 and 12) business class cabin, looks a bit claustrophobic to me.

Should be similar to the ones of CX, JL and LX on their respective 77Ws - a private feel and not claustrophobic at all.

But of course the perception will vary by person

Good to know. I have a flight LHR to BKK using UA miles. They have put me in 11A so I will leave it as it is.

Beware 11A and 11K on HS-TTC are broken (cannot recline)

That did not take long! However, surely they will fix it rather than flying around with broken seats after they have been discovered as broken?

WOW!

Thanks for the heads up. Too long a flight to risk no recline.

Hopefully they keep the new 777 on the NRT-BKK route starting next month. Im supposed to fly that route and Google maps is showing individual suite for F.
