Thai Airways International Signs General Sales Agency (GSA) Agreement with MAC Holdings Private Limited

Expanding its subcontinent profile, Thailand’s National carrier “Thai Airways” has announced their resumption of direct flight services to Colombo, connecting the Fareast and Southwest Pacific towards the pearl of the Indian Ocean. Thailand being one of the famous leisure destinations in the region with Bangkok being its capital city is well known for nightlife, excellent cuisine and an oasis of history and culture. Bangkok being a vital hub is not only popular for tourism but also religious, economic and trade activities. 

“We are delighted to announce the resumption of Thai Airways flights from Bangkok to Colombo, marking a significant step towards enhancing bilateral relations and promoting seamless travel between our nations. As the General Sales Agent, we reaffirm our dedication to ensuring the best in travel experiences and are committed to serving our passengers with excellence” said Andre Fernando Managing Director of Mac Holdings Private Limited Sri Lanka. 

The operation of Thai Airways marks its re-entry to the Sri Lankan market after 3years of absence due to the unfortunate COVID-19 pandemic and brief 20-day operation directly into the Sri Lankan economic issue in 2022. Nevertheless, throughout the pandemic Thai Airways continued to play a pivotal role in maintaining essential air cargo services with P2C charter flights to Sri Lanka. 

The airline operates to more than 60 plus destinations in Asia, Australasia, Middle, Scandinavia and Europe. Flights are being scheduled to commence from 31st March 2024 incoming and depart on 01st April 2024. The route will operate daily flights with an early morning departure out from Colombo arriving in Bangkok in the morning hours itself enabling tourists to gain more time in their respective travelling destination. Passengers who are having connecting flights beyond Thailand too have a smooth and hassle-free transfer with immediate connecting flights. 

Thailand has always been a preferred leisure destination for Sri Lankans and a convenient transit hub connecting Asia, Australia & Korea-Japan. It further serves as a connecting point to Europe and Scandinavia as well.
