The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) has announced new regulations aimed at tightening control over airline crew members' handling of personal items, prohibiting them from accepting or transporting goods for others.
The move follows the arrest of a Thai Airways International flight attendant, identified only as Mina, on June 25 at Melbourne Airport in Australia, where authorities discovered more than 1 kilogramme of heroin (valued at 11.5 million baht) in her tote bags.
