On November 4, 1984, Thai Airways flew the first time with a B747-200 to Zurich. Since 1996 they operate daily.

Since the launch 1984, over 5 Million passengers flew between Bangkok and Zurich with Thai Airways. In the last twelve months (October 23 till August 24) over 215'000 guests have chosen Thai Airways. In the first full year, 1985, they counted 17'300 passengers. 

Popularity in the Swiss market grew massively over the years. Reason enough to celebrate this longterm partnership together with different partners from the airline and travel industry.  

Looking forward to many more years to come!
