Lightbulb Head wind TailWind

Hi Folks ,
Very quick question , a friend of mine has asked me about prevailing winds . he stated that when flying to Thailand that on the out bound leg that the flight takes 9 hours and on the way back that it ALWAYS takes 12 hours , surely the wind direction can change and tail wind can be a head wind at some other time ... would any one be able to help with this .
S&F
