Thai Airways leads as a cultural ambassador
Thailand and Indonesia have been enjoying a long and harmonious relationship for years. Thai Airways International Public Company Limited as Thailand's national flag carrier has played a vital role as a cultural ambassador for the Indonesian people. It has showed its commitment by scheduling daily flights to Indonesia, especially to Jakarta and Denpasar. Moreover, THAI has high hopes that the two countries relations could be improved more in the future by air transport.
Thailand and Indonesia, as members of ASEAN, have many things in common, such as their cultural backgrounds, natural and beautiful landscapes and, not to mention, the friendly faces and smiles of the peoples.
Thailand's unique landscape, which stretches from the majestic and enchanting mountains in the north down to the white sand and crystal blue water beach in the south, has charmed tourists to explore its beauty. THAI, as the major carrier in the country, has assisted tourists to reach this destination with its daily flights to as far away as Mae Hong Son, Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai in the north to Phuket, Had Yai in the south of Thailand. THAI constantly promotes Indonesia as one of its major destination in Southeast Asia. Despite the political and economic situation in Indonesia, the number of tourists using THAI to come to Indonesia, especially Denpasar, is rising, based on its flight statistics.
In honor of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej 73rd birthday on Dec. 5, which is marked as Thailand National Day, THAI has prepared a special in-flight menu for all classes. This special menu will be served throughout December 2000. The special ingredients for this special menu were taken from the Royal Project, which is sponsored and handle personally by the His Majesty. Every passenger who departs from Bangkok will be able to enjoy a variety of the unique dishes served on board.
Recently, the Business Travelers Asia Pacific magazine, based on its annual travelers survey, voted THAI as the best economy class, best airline food, best cabin crew service and best frequent-flyer program.
In order to position THAI closer to its Bahasa Indonesia speaking customers, THAI has launched a local Bahasa website (www.thaiairways.co.id), which was developed especially for its local customers, besides its main English website (www.thaiairways.com), the local website features information about our products and services and also information on how to reach THAI in Indonesia.
