ThaiJet was an international passenger charter airline based in Bangkok, Thailand. Its main base was Don Mueang International Airport (then known as Bangkok International Airport).

History

[edit]

ThaiJet was established in 2003 and started operations on December 15, 2003. It operated international charter flights from Bangkok and Phuket, but these ceased in May 2004 pending re-financing.

In March 2006, Thailand's Civil Aviation Department said it was withdrawing the failed airline's license.

Services

[edit]

International scheduled destinations were Berlin, Frankfurt, Malé, Seoul, Sharjah, Warsaw and Zhengzhou.

Fleet

[edit]

ThaiJet operated two Boeing 757-200s, delivered in December 2003, but they were disposed of by mid-2004.[1]
