Thai's cabin service is reknowned, yes. But I really wonder what their
finances really look like; I've seen alot of press that portrays Thai Air
as just a quasi-private venture of the Thai military.

A thread of discussion I'd like to see is _Two_ fatal incidents
in as many months involving airbuses aborting approaches at Kathmandu.
One of them invovled a Thai Air airbus.
