Hyderabad: Having recently started serving Hyderabad and offering seasonal flights to Bodhgaya and Varanasi, Thai Airways International (TG) is considering plans to add more Indian cities such as Amritsar and Jaipur to its growing subcontinental network.
The introduction of additional destinations in India is regarded as essential for TG, not only to cash in on the country's booming air traffic demand, both for business and leisure travel, but to compete with other international carriers flocking into India's semi-opened skies and India's own fledging airlines.
Though the revenue tally does not look outstanding on its ledger, India has been one of the most lucrative markets for the national carrier, after China and Japan.
Today, TG operates 36 flights per week from Bangkok to eight Indian destinations.
