ALL Thai Airways Staff on Temporary Leave from 4 April - 31 May 2020

Thai Airways has announced that all of its staff will be placed on temporary leave from 4 April to 31 May 2020.

The airline suspended flights on 1 April and is currently hoping to resume operations on 31 May 2020, though this could change depending on the COVID19 pandemic and the many different global travel restrictions and border closures.

All Thai Airways' overseas offices have also been temporarily closed and some of the staff were transferred to Bangkok.

Thai Airways' customers will still be able to contact the airline through the following channels:

- For ticketing, contact the Larn Luang office on weekdays, except public holidays, from 08:00 to 17:00.

- For reservations, contact the 24/7 contact center on 02 356 1111.

- For cargo the 24/7 contact center telephone number is 02 137 4200.

According to the airline, the above services are being provided by volunteers who would normally be working as Thai Airways' pilots and cabin crew.

Passengers can also try to make changes to their itineraries personally on Thai Airways' website.

A statement issued by the airline on 2 April 2020, said, "THAI will resume full services as soon as the situation improves. THAI conveys apologies for any inconvenience that may arise."
