They have, for what can only be political reasons, got rid of the guy who has turned them around and is probably the best one they have had in a long time, Piyasvasti Amranand.
Funnily enough there is currently an interview with him on CNBC by Christine Tan where they openly discuss the rumours he may be sacked. That was done on 17 May and on 22 May he was gone. D*ckheads. When even the union is questioning the decision and asking for an explanation you know things are not right.
He has taken what was, to be honest, a laughing stock and made them into a much better airline. The quality of service in First has improved greatly from a couple of years ago, when to be frank it could be a comedy sketch. He also put an end to the embarassing free on board upgrades, where people with J and even Y BP's would stand at the back of the F cabin waiting to be told what seats were empty and then plonking themselves in them. I can't remember the last time I saw that.
I suppose that's the sort of thing that earned him a few enemies, and we know how things work in Thailand...
A real shame.
