Thai Airways has launched a new schedule for its flights from the Tan Son Nhat International Airport between now and October 2011.

Accordingly, the TG551 flights on route Tan Son Nhat- Bangkok will leave at 11:15 am in the summer schedule on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, or 55 minutes later than currently, so they will take off Bangkok to HCMC an hour later.

The airways asked Vietnam aviation authorities to start its flights from Tan Son Nhat to Bangkok at 10:20 am everyday but they are only available on Friday and Sunday, said Thai Airways’ Director in Vietnam, Narinthorn Purnagupta.

Thai Airways is one of the largest foreign carriers in Vietnam with four flights daily on the HCMC-Bangkok route.

Narinthorn Purnagupta added, the airways will replace its 299-seat Airbus A330-300s with 309-seat Boeing B777-220s from May 16th.
