Thai Airways is reactivating three Airbus A330s and two Boeing 777s ahead of the bustling summer travel season. The carrier is seeing strong need through July and August, with Europe appearing as the most-booked market for July and beyond.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thai Airways A330<\/a> fleet has been grounded since Feb 2021 and was extremely considered to be retired as the airline consolidated its fleet of almost the A350, 787, and 777s. However, this may not be the case, according to ch-aviation. Thai CCO Nond Kalinta recently told Nation Thailand that 5 planes will return to action.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will see 3 A330-300s, of which nine stay in the fleet, and two 777-200s brought out of long-term storage for the busy forthcoming months. The decision marks an important milestone for Thai, which was looking to evolve into a much smaller carrier as the pandemic shuttered journey to the popular tourist country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story is similar to the 777-200s (not ERs), which have not flown since last July and were earmarked for retirement. Now, both types will be back in action ahead of the July-August travel surge. So what are the numbers looking like at the Bangkok-based airline?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
