Myanmar Airways International (MAI) resumed air services today with its Bangkok-Yangon-Bangkok flight after three months of suspension.
After the UK based insurance company refused insurance coverage, MAI resumed its international flights with its six days-a-week Bangkok-Yangon-Bangkok flight.
Its Yangon ticket office is selling the Yangon-Bangkok-Yangon return ticket at FEC 200 and passengers will get one return ticket free in its 'buy one get one' sales promotion programme.
The flight will depart Bangkok at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday and arrive in Yangon at 5:45 p.m. On the return trip, the flight will depart Yangon at 00:45 and will arrive in Bangkok at 2:30 a.m.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday the flight will depart Bangkok at 6:45 p.m. and will arrive in Yangon at 7:30 p.m. On the return trip, the flight will depart Yangon at 8 p.m. and will arrive in Bangkok at 9:55 p.m.
A MAI source said that the Kuala Lumpur flight will be resumed this week too but there is no decision yet to resume Singapore flights.
After the crackdown on Buddhist monk-led uprising in September 2007, the UK based insurance company suspended its insurance policy.
