During the football tournament,THAI's get a profit from capacity on the route was 80%. Since the end of football World Cup, Thai Airways has declined for flights between Thailand and South Africa.There was a "slight slowdown" in demand for THAI's Bangkok-Johannesburg services with advance booking at 50% to 60%.The carrier anticipates advance bookings to pick up with start of South Africa because many foreign tourists will advance booking on highest holiday season.THAI's code-share with Nippon Airways and South African Airways and They have help the airline fill seats on its Boeing 777-200ERs deployed on the Bangkok-Johannesburg route.The carrier functions three flights a week on the route.There are the twin-engine long-range jet which has 292 seats, 30 in business and 262 in economy.The marketing of THAI's resumed on June 2 after being taken out of service for 18 months. THAI lost about 900 million baht on the route.Thai Aways Company said we will never allow history to repeat itself. There must not be any more lack of success.
I think football World Cup can help many airline because tourist want to advance booking for watched the World Cup in South Africa .Therefore,Thai Airways can earned money from sell tickets to South Africa and got to profit on the route was 80%.However, THAI's lost lot of million baht because violence in Thailand so THAI's need taken out of service.Thai Airways Company can share with other airlines and start with South Africa.In the future, I believe that Thai Aways will work to stimulate more demand and add more flights later.
Thai Airways Promotional
