Thai Airways regional subsidiary Thai Smile could be approaching a critical juncture as its parent pursues a major restructuring. Thai Smile could be used to take over Thai&s unprofitable regional routes but the group&also has been using the subsidiary to expand in point to point markets as competition with LCCs intensifies.
Thai Smile has made several strategic U-turns since its 2011 conception and now has dual roles, serving as a feeder for Thai Airways at Bangkok&s main international gateway Suvarnabhumi while competing against LCCs on point to point domestic routes from Bangkok&s original airport Don Mueang. The roles are somewhat contradictory and not easy to balance. Ultimately the group may need to adjust its multi-brand strategy and refocus Thai Smile, which has&generally lacked the cost structure to compete effectively at the bottom end of the market.
Thai Smile&s fleet will grow to 20 A320s by the end of 2015. The group has no additional narrowbody commitments for 2016 or beyond. Further fleet growth is possible, particularly if Thai Smile is used to take over more Thai Airways routes, but is hardly guaranteed and could hinge on further changes to its business model.
Thailand&s NokScoot is aiming to launch scheduled services in May-2015 with an initial fleet of three 415-seat 777-200s. The long-haul low-cost joint venture between Thai Airways affiliate Nok Air and Singapore Airlines (SIA) subsidiary Scoot is planning to serve China, Korea, Japan and potentially Singapore in its initial phase.
NokScoot is eager to enter the fast-expanding but increasingly competitive Thailand-North Asia market. But the start-up is unlikely to pursue significant growth until it is able transition to new-generation aircraft. The 777s are an interim solution that is unlikely to be profitable but enables NokScoot to quickly establish a presence on several key routes.
NokScoot was initially planning to launch scheduled services in late 2014 starting with flights to Tokyo Narita. But it has encountered repeated delays, mainly on the Japanese end. NokScoot is now simultaneously seeking approvals from several authorities, giving it the flexibility to launch with one of several potential routes.
Competition in Thailand&s domestic market will intensify further in 2015 as Thai Lion Air pursues further expansion. Thai Lion has quickly established a significant presence on a handful of trunk routes and will likely be competing on all the main domestic routes of Nok Air and Thai AirAsia by the end of 2015.
The Lion Group affiliate&launched services at the end of 2013 and already accounts for 17% of domestic LCC seat capacity in Thailand.&Thai Lion&could potentially capture a 25% share by the end of 2015 as it takes delivery of several additional 737s.
Seat capacity and passenger numbers in Thailand&s domestic LCC sector increased by over 30% in 2014. But the growth has come at the expense of yields and profitability. More rapid domestic growth is expected in 2015 and the intense competition could make it difficult for the market to return to profitability even with the reduction in oil prices.
Thailand continues to be an extremely challenging market with all four of Thailand&s main carriers reporting losses for 3Q2014. Combined losses in 3Q2014 at Thai Airways, Bangkok Airways, Nok Air and Thai AirAsia were about USD150million on revenues of about USD1.85 billion, continuing a negative trend which started in 2Q2014.
Thailand&s international market has been significantly impacted by political instability, which started in late 2013&and reached its apex in 2Q2014. Meanwhile the domestic market has been impacted by overcapacity, driven by rapid expansion from Thailand&s three low-cost carriers and a slowdown in the local economy.
The pace of recovery in Thailand&s economy and tourism sector has so far been slower than anticipated. There should be some improvement in 4Q2014 but a full recovery is not likely until at least 2015.
LCC start-up Tigerair Taiwan is planning to pursue rapid expansion with an initial focus on Singapore, Thailand, Japan and South Korea. China could eventually become Tigerair Taiwan&s largest market if bilateral restrictions, which are the carrier&s biggest obstacle to growth, are eased.
The new China Airlines (CAL) subsidiary became Taiwan&s first LCC on 26-Sep-2014, when it launched services to Singapore with one A320. A second A320 will be added in Nov-2014 and used to launch services to Thailand while a third A320 is expected to arrive by early 2015 and support new services to Korea and Japan.
Tigerair Taiwan is encouraged by initial load factors on the Singapore route and moves by the Taiwanese government to liberalise and promote LCC development. It now expects to grow faster than outlined in its initial business plan, which envisioned a fleet of 12 A320s by the end of its third year.
AirAsia should see a surge in transfer traffic over the next several months as it introduces and expands its Fly-Thru transit product at additional hubs. AirAsia is evolving to become more like a network carrier, following other Asian LCC groups which have been promoting and selling connections for several years.
Bangkok Don Mueang in late 2013 became the second hub for AirAsia&s Fly-Thru product, which was initially introduced at Kuala Lumpur in 2010.
AirAsia introduced the transit product at Jakarta in Sep-2014 and is planning to extend Fly-Thru to Bali and Kota Kinabalu by the end of 2014.
The launch of long-haul affiliates in Indonesia and Thailand is driving much of the growth. But there is also growing demand for short-haul to short-haul connections.

普吉的美是热烈的、体感的、当下的
第一眼普吉和最后一眼普吉和心里碎碎念的总是有那么一点点的差距、一点点失落
也许失落就在于我给它的时间太短了

由于我们想顺道去HK给宝宝买奶粉，所以来回各在HK住了一晚，上海-香港机票定的是春秋的299元的，不过这个价格基本要提前1个月预订。两人HK来回共RMB：1996元
泰国国际段：
香港-曼谷机票定的是亚航的，提前了2个月预订
498.31美金（2人来回，含税含30公斤2人行李含飞机餐）
一点没体现出亚航的价格
泰国内陆段：
3780泰铢（2人，含税含30公斤2人的行李）
清迈-普吉
85.21美金（2人，含税含20公斤2人的行李）
普吉-曼谷
139.98美金（2人，含税含20公斤2人的行李）
此行全程机票换成RMB大约：2+554+910=7521（2人含税）
定机票总结：
一、网站推荐
1.亚航：
2.泰国航空：
3.曼谷航空：
4.nokair： （这家航空停在曼谷旧机场Don Mueang）
二、航空公司选择友情提示
想选择鸟航的同学请看下下面的友情提示：
nokair是在曼谷旧机场Don Mueang起降的，所以各位到国际段选择亚航到曼谷，并立刻转机到其他城市的同学记住转机后一定要选择同一机场转机的航班，所以转机的同学如果你的时间和钞票不是很富裕的话，请不要选择nokair。
我亲身经历了：就为了早一个小时到清迈去敢周日市场，结果花了600THB从索万那普机场打的到Don Mueang机场，全程全速耗时50分钟，全程高速58公里路，而且我坐的亚航国际段香港-曼谷的飞机的还延误，差点就赶不上鸟航去清迈的飞机，所以各位转机的同学一定要慎重考虑好。
三、亚航没有推特价的话一点都不便宜，加上还要加上七七八八行李的钱，所以不要死等亚航，可以各网站都看下比较下。

关于清迈、普吉、曼谷旅行时间安排问题
我把各地自己觉得好玩的地方罗列了下
清迈：Sunday walking street、NIGHT BAZZAR、各大小寺庙、一日游（骑大象、漂流等）、JUNGLE FLIGHT、素贴山（没有去）、清迈大学（没有去）、东方文华酒店、Nimmanhaemin Road
普吉：逛芭东镇、海滩、SIMON SHOW、吃海鲜、RACHA岛一日游浮潜、酒店发呆
曼谷：大皇宫（没有去）、玉佛寺、郑王庙、siam购物、NANA和素坤逸区
去之前看了很多泰国帖子的介绍，结合个人体会：
1、如果你的时间有限，那么尽量留多点时间给清迈
2、如果有更多时间可以选择单独去一次清迈，8天，如果你还念念不忘普吉的话，再单独去一次普吉
3、如果你去过别的海岛了，如果你去海岛为了看海和沙滩的话，普吉也许会让你很失望。普吉以及附近的岛除了酒店文化，它的海、沙滩、潜水个人认为是不太值得特地去的，如果你喜欢热闹的海岛喜欢芭东的酒吧、夜排档，那就另当别论。

DE NAGA HOTEL（四星）
房型：Premier Deluxe
价格：590元/晚
选择理由：这个酒店是左手MM极力推荐的，去之前几乎看遍了清迈所有大家推荐的酒店评价，最后还是选择了这家，理由很简单：地理位置很好，出行极其方便，性价比很高；还看中了左手拍美人照的窗台、走廊和泳池旁
实地感受：服务极佳、地理位置走到周日市场就3分钟、旁边就是7-11、闹中取静，酒店全部使用深色柚木很有泰式格调、免费宽带，一定要找缺点的话早餐品种不够多
一定要选择Premier Deluxe房型，有个飘窗很美的~
预订网站：
推荐该网站：比较过BOOKING/HOTELTRAVEL/AGODA三个网站，这些网站酒店都有的订，无非就是比价格，以横向比较最便宜的价格、最多的房型图片、很简单的付款操作，让我立马就决定所有的酒店都从这个网站定。
TIPS：这个网站的缺点就是取消收取定金的哦，行程经常有变动的同学还是选择上面几个著名网站取消不收费的

I held off purchasing this very detailed airport until AES became available. Thai Creation have done an excellent job and one can feel the pride for their airport and city. Animations abound within the airport and nearby highway. Having colour and movement makes SUCH a difference you wonder why many developers can't be bothered.
The freeware version of VTBD is very good ... this one is superlative and definitely worth the money.
