Thai sniffing...yet again.
Personal thought is, if they were ever going to launch MAN, it should have been done before the gulf carriers became so entrenched there.
Perhaps it's the loss of connectivity with and interlining on to their LHR service which has prompted the re-look, though with their intention to bring the A380 to LHR next autumn, I'd have thought their priority would have been to secure the means to funnel as much traffic as possible through London.
Can't see MAN happening, though I'd love to see it personally.
