Thai Airways International

Thai Airways International (Thai : การบินไทย) is the national air carrier of Thailand. The carrier's first flight was on May 1, 1960. As the national airline of Thailand, Thai operates out of Bangkok International Airport in Bangkok and is a founding member of the Star Alliance network. Its safety record rates a "A", the highest grade possible, according to Air Rankings Online. Rankings are cumulatives, based on the number of fatal accidents per million flights that the carrier has flown since 1970. As most tourists to the country come from Europe, Thai has a limited presence in North America, where its flights are marketed by Lufthansa.
