Thai AirAsia Reviews and Experiences

In this age of advanced technology, looking for online Thai AirAsia reviews before or while you are planning to use this airline’s service should be considered as a necessary thing to do. As one of the largest low-cost airlines in the world, Thai AirAsia is a carrier that covers your flight demands to experience the beauty of Thailand and other neighboring countries.

Thai AirAsia was born as a joint venture between Thailand’s Asia Aviation and Malaysia’s budget carrier AirAsia. It serves mainly domestic flights within Thailand, with main hub in Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok, and secondary one in Phuket International Airport in Phuket. Despite focusing more on domestic routes, Thai AirAsia also offers international flights, especially to countries in Southeast Asia and South, as well as Japan and southern part of China.

Inflight Services and Features by Thai AirAsia

Reading about Thai AirAsia reviews can help you to get information about various amenities provided by the airline.  While it’s true that the carrier prioritizes affordable airfares, it also offers a wide range of inflight services to give convenient flying experience to business and leisure travelers.

Here are some of the inflight features provided by Thai AirAsia:

  • Seats

The cabin quality of Thai AirAsia makes it hard to believe that it is categorized as low-cost airline. All of the seats are covered in black or red/black leather and even the ones on economy class are as comfortable as legacy carrier. The dimension of the seats depends on the fleet type.

 

Thai AirAsia’s Airbus A320 fleet has standard and hot seats options. The standard seats have 16”-17” of width and 28” of pitch. Meanwhile, the hot seats have 16”-17” of width, 29” of pitch, and 20.3” stretchable legroom that are located near the emergency exit and at the front part of the plane.

 

On the other hand, Thai AirAsia’s Airbus A330 fleet has both options and more. The standard seats have 16” of width and 30” of pitch, while the hot seats have 17”5 of stretchable legroom. Airbus A330 also provides an option of premium flatbed seats, which has 19” of width and 59” of pitch. The flatbed cabin can be transformed into full flatbed when you want it too. As an addition, the A330 offers twins seats option as well, where you can get extra privacy of being seated with your companion together without middle seat or stranger’s distraction.

 

Considering that the airline offers much more affordable price of ticket flight than a full-service carrier, seems like it successfully delivers great cabin experience with comfortable seats and sufficient space of legroom. You are even allowed to buy or rent pillow and/or blankets. Moreover, it comes with quiet zone – a seating area that’s not available for passengers who travels with children under 12 years old.

 

On top of that, there are plenty of additional features available when you book the ticket, such as early boarding, vacant neighboring seat, and many more.

  • Health Measures

In regards of the current global situation, all of the Thai AirAsia’s passengers are obligated to go through sanitization and disinfection processes according to the aircraft manufacturer’s protocols. The aircrafts are all equipped with High Efficiency Particulate Arresters (HEPA) filtration system that’s able to filter out 99.99% particle of dust and airborne contaminants like bacteria and viruses.
