FYI-

My wife is a UA employee. We ID90'd on Thai Airways last week to get from Bangkok to Nagoya Japan. The Thai Airway staff were kind of pains in the neck. First they insisted that we show them proof of our flights out of Japan (kind of difficult when you are flying space available). Secondly, they don't give you a DM to clear security and wait at the gate. Instead, they made us wait until 50 minutes prior to departure. This would be fine and dandy if the security lines at the new BKK airport weren't such a nightmare. The cues were about 50 yards long, and we only moved about 30 feet in 40 minutes. I literally had to push my way to the front of the line to get to the gate 10 minutes before the scheduled departure. Naturally, the plane left 35 minutes late. If I didn't push my way through the line, we probably wouldn't have made our flight.

On the positive side, the Thai Airways flight crews were great.
