Covid-19 has caused a very difficult time for the entire aviation industry, along with Thai Airways international which is based in Thailand. Covid-19 has seriously affected them financially as it has affected most of the world. One of the industries which has seriously been influenced is the aviation industry, with Thai Airways greatly feeling the impact of Covid-19.
In may 2020, after many months of immense economic struggle, Thai Airways filed bankruptcy protection. This was a big announcement from Thai Airways , which many have interpreted as the end of getting their tickets refunded, thus negatively effecting the company’s reputation. The future of the Thai airline is therefore still uncertain and the upcoming months or years will be crucial.
To ensure that you do not loose your money from Thai Airways International you will need to take action now. Therefore, we do not recommend you to be passive in relation to getting your refund from Thai Airways International for your unused Thai Airways flight ticket.
Being passive in getting your money back, means that you just write emails and call Thai Airways International and not fully knowing the Thai Airways cancellation policy. However, this will not trigger a payout of your unused Thai Airways flight ticket as it can also be read online, based on the latest reviews from the many thousands of dissatisfied customers.
It is a long and tough battle to initiate a refund for your Thai Airways flight ticket and it often requires taking the airline to court before you receive your ticket cost refunded.

What does a bankruptcy protection entail for Thai Airways international (Avoid not getting a refund on your unused airline tickets)?
If an airline goes into bankruptcy protection, it means that they, together with their selected trustees, will try to initiate all actions to avoid bankruptcy. This is to protect both the airline, their customers and other financially involved parties.
However, even though they are trying to save their customers they might end up sacrificing them in the process due to them not being able to pay them back their money. Thus, making the customers lose their trust of the airline making them not come back and use Thai Airlines in the future.
An airline that went through the same problem as Thai Airways and has had already taken its route to bankruptcy protection is Norwegian Air Shuttle. This ended in a reconstruction of the airline, where the company erased their debt to their customers, thus ensuring survival.
The survival of Norwegian was at the expense of their customers, who all lost the money as they did not get any refunds. This pushed the clients to be fearful of purchasing any other flight tickets with Norwegian during the Covid-19 period. You can read more about this here: Norwegian Bankruptcy.
Therefore, we recommend that all Thai Airways customers whose refund is still pending to initiate a legal process to recover their money. The Thai Airways cancellation policy is to currently refund their flight passengers. If you need help with this you can have your entitlement checked for free through Air-delay.com without further financial risk.
All airlines such as Thai Airways cancelled many flights due to Covid-19, and this has triggered a lot of refunds to be refunded to their customers. This is because all airlines along with Thai Airways have to pay the money back for all the cancelled flights. Airlines are given a deadline for when the refund must be refunded, but not all airlines meet this deadline.
This can be due to many different reasons, bankruptcy in Thai Airways’ case. However, it should never be the customer’s problem that the airlines cannot pay the money back for a cancelled flights or flight delays. It’s not just Thai Airways that is quite resistant when it comes to the reimbursement topic.
Almost all airlines including SAS Scandinavian Airlines, Aegean Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Air France, TAP Portugal, Lufthansa, Ryanair and many more have not refunded their customers on time. That is why we at Air-delay.com help to recover a refund for a cancelled flight and deal with companies who are going through situations like Thai Airways.
Booked with a travel agency, and not directly through Thai Airways?
In principle, it is always the operating airline that is obliged to pay a refund for the flight ticket. Many travelers try to get Thai Airway flight refunded through the travel agencies, who often do not have the option to refund the flight tickets if the money has not been received from the airlines yet.
The reason for this is that when a customer buys the ticket through a travel agency and not an airline then the agencies only take a percentage of the money and transfer the rest to the airlines, as Thai Airways International. For example if you were to buy a flight ticket from Denmark to Thailand you would have to send the money to the travel company instead of the airline, which in this case is Thai Airways.
If you have booked your trip through travel companies such as Mytrip, Flybillet.dk or Supersaver, you should not expect to get your refund from Thai Airways through them. If you have paid by credit card, then a possible refund will be made to the card you have used, if the travel company has the money for your flight tickets.
However, you can avoid a lot of challenges by starting the legal battle through companies like Danish Air Delay, which has its background in the recovery of compensation and reimbursement regarding flight cancellation. Companies that help people in these instances are usually knowledgeable and attentive about the rules and rights of being a flight passenger.
These are skills which are required in order to protect people from getting their money taken from them without receiving any service that they initially thought they would get. Thus, Danish Air Delay and other companies as such will help flight passengers get the needed guidance about their rights regarding a flight cancellation and a full refund from travel companies.
What does Thai Airways International’s situation mean for your compensation and refund?
It is still unknown how this bankruptcy protection will affect Thai Airways and their customers. However, there will be great uncertainty in having your refund credited from Thai Airways. That is why we at Danish Air Delay recommend that everyone initiates the process to get their receivables back as soon as possible from companies that are like or are heading the same way as Thai Airways. If you have not received your refund yet, it is most likely you will not receive it without legal action against Thai Airways.
This recommendation stems from the bitter experience with Norwegian, where their customers lost all their flight money. The same can happen with some of Thai Airways’ flights, and therefore we recommend that you contact us at Danish Air Delay, as Thai Airways will probably try to adapt to ‘’Norwegian’s way’’ afterwards, if this will be able to secure them financially.
With the financial pressure from all countries and all weekly departures, it is therefore important that you force Thai Airways to deal with your cancelled flight in order to get a refund. This is best done through lawsuits. We can file the case in Copenhagen and thus help all passengers with their cancelled flights with not only from Thai Airways but other airlines as well.
