Thank you. Looks like it is working out; still working on it.

Is it correct that Thai Air has no non-stop flights to BK? Thanks.

We flew UA from IAD to Rome and Rome to BKK on Thai Air. I don't know currently what non stops Thai Air may have. A couple years back they had LAX to BKK flight.

i still prefer to call the airline, cause then you get exactly what you want and often things that do not show on-line

Thai has parked its 340-500, and doesn't have the non-stop to LAX anymore. Singapore is putting economy back onto its own 340-500, still trying to make a penny from its non-stops. Not sure about when the conversion is taking place.

I had called UA direct, and yes they did have flights which didn't appear on-line. (Also,Thai Air doesn't serve the NY area airports, and their flight from LAX to BKK stops in Korea). So we're set now, and I'm working on ground arrangements. Again, many thanks to all for your advice.

UA's only flight to BKK is from NRT. Regardless of flight number, "direct" or not, you are getting off with everything at NRT and will go through security there.
