Hi
Does anyone know of an airline which has a direct flight from Dubai to Bangkok & return, other than Emirates?
Cheers

it looks like Emirates is your only choice for a non-stop. Etihad connects is Abu Dhabi. Gulf Air also has connecting flights.
Only airline that has nonstop flights DXB-BKK other than Emirates is Thai Airways , many airlines on that route but all with one ore 2 stops.
Ofcourse I go with other Falang, it's my job, but you are the only one I love :)
Looks like its going to be emirates then . . . . . . :cheese:
ANA - All Nippon Airways also fly direct Dubai to Bangkok (en route to Tokyo)

If you see a Thai airways listed - Its a code share with Emirates.
I was looking at faires from Dubai to BKK, R/T for a friend.
I found non-stops on Thai and Emirates.
BUT
The faires for Economy are significantly different.
Thai 5,310 AED
Emirates 2,530 AED
Am I reading that incorrectly??
I can't vouch for whether it's a code share or not, but it is not unusual for the listed fares to be drastically different for two airlines on the exact same plane. It's likely that Thai gets a relatively small bucket of seats for a codeshare flight so their fares are higher after their cheap seats are gone.
You might want to take a look at tools like kayak.com or farecompare to see who flies the route.
DUBAI - BKK IS ALWAYS VERY BUSY SO BOOK ASAP. Emirates is fine for me.
Perhaps I should explain the problem.
I have 75,000 air miles with Emirates and thought it would be good to visit Thailand over Christmas and the New Year period.
Flying economy from UK to Thailand return is 75,000 air miles - so I would only have to pay the tax.
The problem is that DXB to BKK is very busy (as Boxer said) as the flight goes onto HK. So what Emirates do is make that leg 'peak' economy which costs in air miles almost double - 65,300 or to buy 3340AED (455GBP).
So at that price plus the taxes from UK to Dubai the 'free' flight turns out to be 'not so free' and a few pounds less than a normal booked flight.
Another airline from Dubai to Bangkok would be desirable.
