EMIRATES TO RESUME FULL OPERATIONS TO BANGKOK DEC 9
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 5 (Bernama) -- Dubai-based Emirates Airline will resume full operations to Bangkok, starting Dec 9.
In a statement here Friday, Emirates said it was transporting additional
flight and cabin crew to Thailand in preparation for the start of normal
operations.
Alban Lee, Emirates' country manager, Malaysia, said after conducting a
comprehensive security and infrastructure review of Suvarnabhumi Airport, the
airline concluded that it was the right time to resume full Bangkok
operations.
He said the first priority was to clear the backlog of passengers stranded
in Bangkok, after which it would accept new bookings.
"The relief services will use Boeing 777 aircraft to cater to a larger
capacity and ensure that maximum number of passengers were being recovered from
Bangkok," he said.
