THAI  uses bigger aircraft for southern routes

Thai Airways International (THAI) is utilising larger aircraft to southern destination during the flooding crisis, in response to higher travelling demand.


“The numbers of passengers travelling out of Bangkok have increased due to the severe Bangkok flooding. The airline will increase its seat capacity in order to support the current volume of travellers," said THAI President  Piyasvasti Amranand.
 
The larger airplanes will be operated on Bangkok-Phuket, Bangkok-Hat Yai and Bangkok-Krabi routes.

The State Raiway of Thailand on Saturday resumed the services to 18 destinations in the South, following suspension on Friday as the tracks are partially flooded.
