Thai Airways Mourns Late King, Waives Fees on Rebooked Flights
26th Oct 2016
As the country mourns the passing of King Bhumibol Adulyadej (88 years), many businesses in Thailand have closed, events and festivals postponed or canceled, newspapers and websites gone black and white and flights cut off or rerouted. Thailand has issued a list of events that will be postponed or cancelled, as well as what businesses will be closed during this period.
Many travelers may have booked flights for events which have now been cancelled. To accommodate those visitors Thai Airways International (THAI) has decided to officially implement a rescheduling/rerouting fee waiver.
In an official statement on its website, Thai Airways said:
Thai Airways International Public Company Limited (THAI) implemented a rescheduling/rerouting fee waiver for the passengers who hold tickets in sector to/from Bangkok which is booked on/before 14th October 2016 for the travel date between 14th October 2016 and 14th November 2016.
Conditions for Rebooking
In addition to this, the statement also explains the conditions for rebooking a flight. According to THAI, if the customer wants to change a reservation, he or she is allowed to change the date of travel within the ticket validity or to extend the travel date until 14th November this year, sans any fees and surcharges.
On the other hand, the passengers will be able to reroute their travel within the ticket validity or to extend travel until 14th November, 2016, also without any fees or surcharges.
THAI warns, however, that fare differences and taxes will still apply, so be prepared to pay those.
Tickets, therefore, must be booked according to the two conditions above and also within the expiry date.
For more information, customers can call the THAI Contact Center at via telephone at +662-356-1111 or they can contact their local Thai Airways office.
King Bhumibol Adulyadej of Thailand died at 88 years old after being a monarch and leader of the nation for 70 years. TheThai people are mourning their late sovereign wearing customary black colors. Visitors and tourists are encouraged to do the same.
