In an effort to limit physical contact during the Covid-19 pandemic and facilitate a modern lifestyle in the digital era, Thai Airways has launched three new digital entertainment options for passengers.

Connect with your smartphone and tablet as the Sawasdee Thai Airways website is designed to be a lifestyle centre with travel-related information and material updated monthly along with the Sawasdee Pocket Guide for convenient use.

"Many technologies have been developed and used during the Covid-19 pandemic to maximise comfort and convenience for users. This digital disruption prompted more people to use digital platforms, which allowed for easier access to services and less physical contact during the pandemic. Thai Airways, seeing the potential of the demand and popularity of digital growth, therefore launched newly developed platforms to offer convenience and cater to the user," said Piyasavasti Amranand of Thai Airways.

Customers of Thai and Thai Smile lounges get access to the Thai e-Library, which offers more than 50 entries of digital newspapers and magazines in various languages, including English, Chinese, French and German. It is available for free download so that passengers can read it on the ground or while flying.

"Thanks to advanced technology providing a seamless connection to online services, the Sawasdee Thai Airways website serves up-to-date, comprehensive travel information, helpful tips as well as an inspiration for travellers to embark on journeys and see new places. The website also marks the return of the beloved and well-known in-flight Sawasdee magazine in digital format, with fresh content now accessible to readers everywhere," said Korakot Chatasingha of Thai Airways.

In order to make things easier, tour packages, hotel reservations and vehicle rentals are all available online through the Royal Orchid Holidays website, which has been upgraded to provide a full range of services. Modern travellers can entirely craft their personalised vacation packages and services in order to create their own distinctive travel experiences.
