Bringing First Class to Thailand

From fine dining to spacious cabins, the A380’s First Class experience is bound to leave a lasting impression on passengers.
Lufthansa’s Long-Standing Legacy
Lufthansa’s connection with Thailand dates back more than six decades, fostering strong ties between the two regions. This legacy of trust and reliability makes it fitting for Bangkok to be the first destination in the Asia Pacific region to welcome the A380 back into its airspace.
According to Anlee Do, General Manager for Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines & the Mekong region at Lufthansa Group, the decision to reintroduce the A380 on the Bangkok-Munich route is a response to the robust demand for air travel between Thailand and Germany.
Lufthansa Group’s commitment to the Thai market is evident in their unique position as the only airline group operating the A380 non-stop between Thailand and Europe.
Summary
With the reintroduction of the A380, Lufthansa is taking a giant leap towards enhancing the connectivity between Thailand and Europe. LH773, the flight code for the Bangkok-Munich route, will significantly boost the weekly flight capacity.
With the support of other Lufthansa Group carriers like Swiss International Air Lines and Austrian Airlines, passengers can now access a remarkable 21 weekly flights, offering direct connections to major European cities, including Zurich, Vienna, and Munich.
