THAI supports disabled flyers

THAI has launched special assistance services for monks and disabled passengers. The move is part of the airline's attempt to meet the requirements of the ICAO and CAAT. THAI acting president Usanee Sangsingkeo said the airline is continually improving its products and services to improve passenger comfort. The latest focus is on monks and passengers travelling with wheelchairs. She said such passengers will receive special assistance from the beginning of their journey to their final destination. Last month, Thai authorities issued new air operator certificates to 13 carriers after ICAO removed its red flag warning on Thailand. While THAI was not on ICAO's warning list, the airline was asked to improve services and make safety a top priority. <br/>
