I arrived at airport early and joined the check-in queue. My bag was underweight as I like travelling light. I received the boarding pass for both flights. I would be transiting through Bangkok, with transit time of approx 2.30 hours
In Mumbai, security check is conducted first followed by immigration. I cleared both without issue. Immigration took sometime due to peak departure time.
As I had plenty of time before boarding, As most airline departing to South East Asia offer one meal usually after departure. I decided to have some food.
I had a Dosa, Idli, Vada combination meal along with tea.
Gate area for international flights are on the North West Pier. Long walk towards gate.
Have to take escalator to reach the gate area.
Walked around for sometime.
As departure time got near, sat closer to gate.

Thai Airways provided good service, Being a red-eye, did not check entertainment. Food served was enough for the flight duration.
Mumbai Airport check-in , security was completed in reasonable time. immigration took some time.
Transiting through Bangkok was simple as boarding pass was provided at the time of check-in.
Overall as satisfactory flight.
