This is but a token bespoke leisure service (welcome though it is). MAN-BKK is acknowledged to be one of the stand-out un-served city pairs, someone needs to grab this route by the short and curlies soon and make a proper go of it. If the ever-promised TG service continues to be a pipe dream then it would seem to fit with Thomas Cook's growing mainstream long-haul focus, branching out to the East direct from MAN rather than via the Condor hub in Germany.
