AIRLINE OVERVIEW
Thai Airways International is the flag carrier of Thailand, headquartered in Bangkok. Founded in 1960, the airline operates its primary international and domestic network through Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), its principal hub.
Thai Airways flies to destinations across Asia, Europe, Australia, and beyond. Its fleet includes Airbus A320/A321neo, A330 and A350 aircraft, alongside Boeing 777 and 787 aircraft, with the exact type operating any given route depending on scheduling and demand. Thai Airways is a member of Star Alliance, and travellers can extend their journey through Star Alliance partner connections in addition to Thai Airways' own network.
Thai Airways offers Economy and Royal Silk Business Class across its network, with Royal First and premium-economy-related products available on selected aircraft and routes. Frequent flyers can join Royal Orchid Plus, the airline's loyalty programme, to earn miles and tier status on eligible bookings.
Note: Fleet composition, destination counts, cabin availability, and loyalty programme terms are set by Thai Airways and change periodically. Always confirm current details on the official Thai Airways website or at the time of booking on iCanFly.

Baggage
Thai Airways' checked baggage allowance varies by fare family, cabin class, route and ticket conditions. Thai Airways applies piece-based allowances (a set number of bags, each with its own weight and size limit) on most journeys, with the exact number and weight of bags shown for your specific fare. Always check the baggage allowance displayed during booking before purchasing, as this reflects your actual entitlement.
Cabin baggage limits are set by Thai Airways and may vary by aircraft and route. Check the latest allowance for your flight before travel.
Baggage allowances are set by fare family, cabin class, route and ticket conditions, and are subject to change by Thai Airways. The allowance shown with your fare at the time of booking takes precedence over general guidance.
Acceptance, allowance and any charges depend on the equipment, route and fare conditions. Confirm arrangements with Thai Airways or iCanFly support before travel, ideally in advance of your flight.
Baggage allowances and fees change periodically and depend on your fare, route, cabin and Royal Orchid Plus tier. Always verify the allowance shown during booking on iCanFly or directly with Thai Airways.
Travel classes
Thai Airways offers Economy and Royal Silk Business Class across its network, with Royal First and other premium products available on selected aircraft and routes.
