The Thai F Check-in and Lounge at Bkk is amazing. This is really First Class in an Old World sense. The 3 Ss, Service, Service, Service in Spades.
Just after entering the airport, you see the Thai F Check-in portals which after that reality departs. The minute I walked through the portal I was asked for my passport and flight data. Another person then took my wheelie. I was then escorted to a waiting area and served a drink and / or snack. I was also asked what type of massage I desired and at what time. By the time that discussion was completed, my boarding pass and passport was returned. After finishing my welcome drink and snack, I was escorted to a totally 100% F dedicated security line and immigrations, escorted by my aide through the whole process. When that process was completed, I was driven, yes I did say driven, to the Thai F Lounge and then shown to my personal 5 x 5 mtr very nicely furnished apartment. Shortly thereafter by wheelie arrived.
Then a small lunch while I waited to be called for my massage.
The Thai F Lounge is about the same size as the Mel QF F Lounge but I feel elevated about 2 levels in service and style. I could get very addicted to this airline.
Oh BTW, the wireless internet is VERY quick.
After my 1 hour full body Thai massage, lunch will be the Mussaman Curry with Beef or Chicken. Think I'll go with the chicken. They claim this dish is the top ranking of the world's 50 most delicious foods according to
