Thai Airways International Public Company Limited has once again received an award for Best Intercontinental Airline in the Norwegian Grand Travel Award 2010. This is the sixth consecutive year that THAI has won this prestigious award. Mr. Pricha Nawongs, THAI’s General Manager for Denmark and Norway, received the award on behalf of THAI at the award ceremony in Oslo on January 7, 2010.
“I am honored to receive this award. Since the route between Oslo and Bangkok was established in June 2009, the support from the Norwegian travel trade have been amazing. The award will encourage us to work harder for the Norwegians,” said Mr. Pricha Nawongs.
The Grand Travel award was arranged for the 15th time, with 18 different categories. The nominees were elected by a travel trade jury, and the voting was done by a random selection of more than 400 travel agents all over Norway.
All three airline categories were won by Star Alliance member carriers; SAS for best domestic airline, Lufthansa for best European airline and THAI for best intercontinental airline.
Thailand was also voted for the category Best Tourist Country in the World. Over ten countries were nominated, and Thailand was the clear winner once again. Thailand has received the award more than ten times, and the award was received by Director of Tourism Authority of Thailand in Scandinavia, Mr. Manit Boonchim.
