17 Hours

After almost 17 hours of flying nonstop from Bangkok, we are finally home in NYC. We were happy to upgrade to Premium Economy which was just like Business Class on most U.S. airlines. The seats were wider, there was more leg room. The recline was pretty nice and included an elevated leg rest. We each had personal video screens with lots of movies: current, old, international, Thai. They also had some prerecorded TV programs, games, and flight information. Thai Airways has great service and the stewardesses have gorgeous outfits. They change 2 or 3 times during the flight. You get hot towels, a Premium Economy menu with a choice of entrees, free wine with your meals, all night snacks of crackers, fresh fruit, chocolate or cup of noodles. They also keep the bathrooms clean every few hours.
