An upgrade for Thai Airways

January 5th, 2010

Li Xiao Yang sexy flight attendant

Not a ticket upgrade, but an upgrade to more young hotties as air hostesses. That’s the news I saw in the Bangkok Post. They want to bring the average age of air hostesses down to 30. Currently there are many who have been with the airline a long time and they are over 45 years old.

Personally, I would like the “younger image” as they called it. But if I was an air hostesses over 45 I might be pretty angry, except it sounds like they are giving a very generous early retirement bonus, 30 months of salary.

Some air hostesses make 100,000 baht per month according to that story. I find that hard to believe. I know some air hosts/hostesses on other airlines and they make nothing close to that. If that is true then it is no wonder that THAI is constantly bankrupt, that plus having twice as much staff to do the same job as other airlines like Singapore.

I flew THAI a few times many years ago. It was a great airline back then and the air hostesses were so pretty and sweet. All of them looked like models. Maybe things have gone down from then. So maybe the new policy will help them become more successful.

BTW, those photos are Chinese model Li Xiao Yang as a sexy flight attendant.

Who are the most beautiful air hostesses? I was researching uniforms again, looking at the air hostess uniforms of some different airlines.... So many Thai girlie magazines are just spinoffs I keep being surprised by how many new girlie magazine pop up in Thailand every few months. But now... New biz idea – internet cafe hostesses I haven't seen this in Thailand, but they have it Taiwan already if the post I saw was correct. They... Another issue of Z4 magazine I posted about this Thai girlie magazine called Z4 when the first issue came out earlier this year....

    Comparing on flights to Thailand aboard Thai Airways, EVA, China Airlines, Singapore Airlines and Asiana, all had some pretty cute and hot air hostesses EXCEPT Thai. They were all plain, definitely looking older and even mean, sorry to say. One of them even shook me awake for my meal, as obviously she wanted a nap later (I assume) and did not want me asking for my meal after my own nap, even though I wouldn’t have done that. By contrast, the Thai hostess I had on my EVA flight was delightful. Considering service and more expensive price, I may never be flying your nation’s flagship airline again, at least internationally.

    That has to be a mistake, 100k (BHT) = $30,161.36 (USD). I don’t think any hostesses make that much money per month……

    Let’s hear it from the mouth of these babes ;-)

  3. AsianSweetheart Says:

    Actually, 100k baht is USD3,000. You just slipped a digit. But it is still a lot. I think the only air hostesses that make that from powerful families. Regular people make less than 20,000 baht.

    regular people make much less than 20,000 baht per month, more like 5,000… But back to the story… if Thai airways would upgrade to these new hostesses, I would certainly fly with them… :-)

    Sexy air hostess is right. Wow. Nice pics. As a regular reader, I enjoy young hotties as much as anyone else and always enjoyed looking at the asian airlines flight attendants versus what we get on the various North American carriers. But I’m starting to think that we can’t endorse age-ism practiced by these airlines nor penalize the airlines that are being progressive and NOT discriminating against the mature attendants. That is simply unfair to them. They were young, pretty, and otherwise qualified enough to get hired by these airlines once too. As much as I like eye candy, I would vote that readers not penalize airlines (with their pocketbooks) that are progressive and doing the right thing. Oh, and this one can fluff my pillow anytime.

    one of the reasons that Thai went down is the fact that they started hiring rich hiso type brats as stewardesses. Ask a couple Thai people and they will tell you this is true. You needed connections only, not skills to get the job at Thai.

    A couple of my Thai friends are stewardess at other airlines, mostly Arab ones such es Emirates, Qatar, etc. They had to go through a rigorous selection process involving a couple thousand applicants from all walks of life. They will choose the best skilled person. That is how it should be.

    So that is probably why sb else above already commented that the Thai staff was “mean”. I found the quite unfriendly on more than 1 occasion.

    Not acceptable for a premium airline.

    Sorry, if they fly internationally than stewardesses WILL make that kind of money. Flight attendants from other airlines from other countries who fly internationally make even way more than that, and for doing the same job. Thai rates are not even cheap so I see no reason why a Thai Airways flight attendant flying from Bangkok to L.A. or London could not be making 100K baht per month. Not a stretch at all. In fact it sounds like too little to me. Should be making more. You can’t compare it with some girl from Thai Air Asia or Bangkok Airways only flying from Bangkok to Phuket who probably does not make anywhere near that. Probably more like 20K. And, a “normal” stewardess certainly makes more than 5000 baht/month. We’re not talking about custodians or cheap shop help, here.

    I know one Thai woman, 24, tall, cute, great English, ABAC garduate, funny, etc. She works for Gulf Air in Bahrain. She was on $2,400 a year ago. She was trying to get on with Emirates, but the competition was fierce, and Gulf made an offer, so she accepted it.

    I would realy be surprised if Thai International paid $3,000 / month. Really, really, surprised.

    Flight Attendants salaries are a small part of running an airlines. One of Thai INt. major problems is that Thai credit cards are issued to the head managers and they use them at will. They also fly themselves and family on the better seats on the better routes.

    A few years ago, Thais bigest problem was standing alone, and needed to join with other airlines, if not be taken over and become one of a group. But, no one wanted to buy into their problems.

    Considering all of the tourism here, and the cost of labor, there is no reason that Thai should not be able to do well, except for the management.

    If you read the full story on the Bangkok Post, it says “THAI president Piyasvasti Amranand said the MSP would help the airline trim operating costs. Older THAI cabin attendants earn about 100,000 baht a month, while younger colleagues get about 30,000 baht.”.

    That should help clarify what the Thai Flight Attendants earn, roughly $3,000 USD down to $1,000 USD per month.

    Judging from the pics, seems like you mean an upgrade to the uniform and not to the flight attendants. XD
