Thai Airways Best First Class Airline Lounge title winner

"Another one of our closely contested Survey categories, the Best First Class Lounge Award is a true recognition of top-end quality being delivered, and Thai Airways First Class Lounge at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport has evidently delivered in this area, to win the 2009 title" said Edward Plaisted (CEO of Skytrax).

In addition to lounge facilities and amenities that many lounges provide, this Thai Airways facility is well known for its Royal Orchid Spa offering a full ranges of service including Foot-massage and traditional Thai massage, 3 Spa Suites with Jacuzzi.

"A top quality First Class lounge today is much more than just a comfortable area to wait for the flight" said Plaisted. "It has to offer a genuine haven of luxury, with well developed facilities and services available - and it has to remain comfortable and uncrowded. Each airline seeks to distinguish itself, by offering Spa and massage services, jacuzzis, 5-star dining options, bedrooms, and across the top 5 airlines this year you will find these facilities. We still find that it is the quality of customer handling and general customer care from the lounge staff that will determine between the very best First Class lounges."
