TG556 Bangkok –> Ho Chi Minh City
Flight schedule: 18:15
I have a schedule for working with my colleagues in Hi Chi Minh during 12 - 13 July
Of course, I selected Thai Airways as usual.
I arrived airport at 17:00. Traffic on the road was not bad.

Passengers of TG (economy class) need to do check in at row H/J at gate number 4

Queue was not too long. You can just drop your back if you have done an internet check. I recommend to check in before because normally queue at TG is quite long.

This is GIANT SCULPTURES. Landmark at the airport.

I passed immigration within 5 minutes. Passengers in the airport was not cloudy. Maybe today is Tuesday.

Today this Flight use gate E1.

The airport has electricity charging in every gate

Today I travel with the aircraft name "Suphan Buri". Every aircraft of Thai airways has a name.

17:45 staff called for boarding!!


At seat 62A, I felt comfortable. TG put 2 3 2 at last 2 rows.

This aircraft is Boeing 777-200. PTV is available but no USB charging. Seat pitch is widely, seat is more comfortable.


Headphone is not available because it just 1 hour in the air. But you can use PTV anyway.
Security Video played before takeoff.

Takeoff at 18:19.

View over landscape of Bangkok.

Movie is not available for 1 hour flight time.
I have tried but it does not play.

Today we have prawn fried rice. It is not bad but too small anyway. We can understand as this is 1 hours flight.


Approaching to Cambodia. Coffee and tea


19:18 captain announced that we are approving to Ho Chi Minh - Tan Son Nhet airport. All services stopped.


Landed at 19:29. Welcome to Ho Chi Minh
