Thai Airways has just released a large batch of award seats. Royal Orchid Plus members now have one million award seats for 2025 available to book by November 21, 2024<\/strong>. Here are the details of these award seats and how to book them.<\/p>\n

Thai Airways Released One Million Award Seats for Travel in 2025<\/span><\/h2>\n

Some airlines have a set booking window for award seats<\/a>. For example, Aeromexico, Avianca, Cathay Pacific, and Scandinavian Airlines award flights are available to book 360 days out. JetBlue and Southwest offer much shorter booking windows. However, some airlines, like Thai Airways, only release award seats in batches.<\/p>\n

Thai Airways just announced its next batch of award seats for 2025<\/a>. Royal Orchid Plus members now have one million award seats they can book for flights from January 1, 2025<\/strong>. The caveat is that members must book these award seats by November 21, 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These award seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis for both domestic and international flights. A limited number of seats are available per cabin based on demand and aircraft type.<\/p>\n

Although Thai Airways is part of the Star Alliance, these award seats are not available to other alliance members. Only Royal Orchid Plus members can book these award seats. The program is free to join, and new members can earn 2,500 bonus miles<\/a>\u00a0after completing their first international flight.<\/p>\n

Then, you can transfer Citi ThankYou Points<\/a>, Marriott Bonvoy points<\/a>, Accor Live Limitless<\/a> points, or other points into Royal Orchid Plus to book one of these flights. (More about that below.) Or, if you miss the booking window, you can use your Thai Orchid Plus miles to a partner airline to book an award flight.<\/p>\n
