Thai AirAsia Prepares Its Staff For Resumption Of China Travel

(CTN NEWS) – BANGKOK –  As the low-cost airline Thai AirAsia prepares to restart operations across China, the airline’s pilots and cabin crew are getting ready for the return of Chinese tourists, who constituted the airline’s largest customer group in the past.

The airline intends to resume service to eight cities in China, including Chongqing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, and Wuhan.

In preparation for this, cabin crew members are now participating in training programs designed to update their skills.

According to a cabin crew member named Sakuna Puangpipat, “there should be at least one cabin crew member who can speak Mandarin on the flight so that we can converse with passengers.”
