  • Thai Airways heads to bankruptcy court in last-ditch restructure

    I previously had a flight with Thai Airways from Sydney to Hanoi in business class. They said it would take 3 months+ to process the refund.

    Mar 22, 2021, 09:26 PM

    Hi,After waiting 180+ days I received a refund of nearly $6000. However, it was a major fight to receive this with letters to the ACCC and fair trading.
