I am sitting in seat 35F, an aisle seat on this Thai Airways Airbus A350-900 aircraft bound for Bangkok. It is an exceptionally clean and modern plane, possibly it has only recently come into service.

The seat is comfortable, and has a large AV screen and footrest. And there is no one next to me although the flight seems quite full. I finish watching, ‘Finding Your Feet’ which I had started on the flight over. Great movie – highly recommended! Once finished I watch an episode of ‘This is Us’.

I have ordered a Hindu Vegetarian meal. This is my FIRST TIME to order a vegetarian meal. It is delicious – two types of curry (cottage cheese and spinach, and a vegetarian-type ‘butter chicken’) and comes with a chickpea and corn salad, flatbread and creamy rice dessert. I think I will continue to order this meal in the future.

The flight overall is very good. We are told that we need to take a bus from the domestic airport to the international airport. This puts a dent in the overall experience but I know it’s not the airlines’ fault.
