Bangkoktraveler Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Thai Airlines isn't the only airline with this problem. What makes it worse is some people are not picking up their luggage and it just sits there. No security, nothing. If somebody wants a bag I guess they can just go and get one.

Old Hippie Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 I just posted this in News...good argument for carry on only. I do leave a bag with the essentials in BKK, just in case I do get stuck with no luggage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 I read an article a couple of months back about problems with the luggage carousel at the new airport and that it wasn't going to be ready when the new airport opened. Looks like the article was right, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 If no one is checking, might be worthwhile to go to the airport and load up a pickup or two with bags that look expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Airlines has the contract to handle ALL ground services. Their problem affects ALL airlines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
