Note: Available from Bangkok to THAI destinations in listed countries.
At airport check-in in Bangkok, at Least 2 hours prior to flight departure, determine the amount of excess baggage and go to THAI Customer Service where miles are instantly deducted from your account, then present the receipt provided at check-in. You can even redeem for an Award Nominee, however you must also be present at check-in to authorize mileage deduction from your account.
Whatever the reason for overweight luggage, shopping, studying or extended travel, Excess Baggage Awards are a great way to use miles and save.
* Excess baggage is determined by the paid fare and/or Royal Orchid Plus membership status. Excess Baggage Awards are valid on international THAI flights departing from Bangkok, beginning at 10 kilos and in increments of 5 kilos. Excess Baggage Awards have no cash value, and any difference in the weight and miles applied cannot be refunded in currency, nor can Excess Baggage Awards be re-credited. Piece concept is applied only from Bangkok to New York or Los Angeles.
