The boarding process in Chiang Mai was horrible. Gate change last minute left me with all our carryons and my husband in a wheelchair. No one came for him….. Inconsiderate and uncaring. Airport was crowded and no one cared….

The boarding process in Chiang Mai was horrible. Gate change last minute left me with all our carryons and my husband in a wheelchair. No one came for him….. Inconsiderate and uncaring. Airport was crowded and no one cared….

Better explanation of where to line up when checking luggage.

No electrical plugs or USB plugs. No lounge at KKC airport.

Thai Smile must be the only airline in the world that still doesn’t allow mobiles and iPads to be used during taxi, takeoff and landing. No inflight service due to COVID but a little snack and water handed out as we left the plane. I also like the deplaning by row, I wish more airlines did this

Pros: "We forgot to pack our liquid products into the check in baggage. After we went through the security check, we brought the liquid products back to the boarding pass counter, our baggage had already been sent to downstream. But the staffs was very helpful, they provided a box, packed the liquid products for us and checked it in as the second luggage. This solved our headache and it was a huge deal for us, making us smile. Thanks to your crew/staffs again."
Cons: "Providing some snacks would be helpful when getting off the board."
Pros: "The crew was the most expert crew I have seen. I fly thousands of miles every year. Their alertness to safety was unprecedented for me. In Yangon the counter personnel were equally excellent, safety-conscious and personable."
Cons: "It would be really nice not to have to board a bus in BKK to be shuttled to my next flight."
Cons: "I understand that the crew was probably tired, but I believe they can be friendlier."
Pros: "Super cool light meal in a little bag. Best budget airline I have flown."
Pros: "Seamless boarding and deviating."
Cons: "Thai Smole seats offer the least legroom in my experience. Very narrow."
Cons: "My booking name TANG MENGLY Why ticket show LY MENGTANG My mom can not get the fly we bought anther ticket for 140 dollar"
Pros: "The prompt service of the staff and comfort of the plane."
Cons: "Warm snacks instead of cold pastry."
Cons: "Seats recline too much making difficult to get in or out because of the seat in front of you"
Pros: "The Crew was very Good and yes the seats were comfortable."
Cons: "I think they did the great Job"
Pros: "Everything was great"
Cons: "More choice of movies, and more choice of translations languages for movies. Because longs hauliers need a lot of entertainment. Thank you very much for asking for our comfort"
Pros: "The crew was super nice and informative."
Cons: "The food was just ok, but not really expecting a 5 star cuisine."
Cons: "A specially hospitality and food which served in plane was excellent"
Cons: "Krabi airport is terrible. Cramped waiting area. Boarding gates too narrow for capacity. Aircon not coping. Worst flight information I have ever encountered."
Pros: "Crew were great"
Cons: "Food in economy could be more Thai and tasty but nicely served and efficient"
Pros: "All well arranged. Friendly and helpful crew. Food apprppriate for the trip. Logistics ok. Balue for money."
Pros: "Flight was full, but generous seat pitch and efficient crew made the difference!"

They cancelled my flight and never notified me. I needed to pay another airline for a ticket so I could catch my next flight. Which was 3x the price!!!!

If you need to check luggage, make sure you buy the allowance upfront via their official website. Otherwise a bag will cost you more than the airfare.

Middle seat after specifically asked for isle many times. There was a lot of room left. Passenger next to me complaining that she couldn’t sleep because I bumped into her. I’m a 6.5 guy what the hell am I going to do there?

The flight boarding was very early and the flight arrived ahead of schedule.

No food or entertainment on this one hour flight. Crew were very nice as always!

Service before boarding, boarding staff made me buy another return ticket as my Evisa was processing, when I landed my visa was already delivered as I new it would be, wasted money because this arrogant self important b wanted to show her authority

Cons: "Least leg room of any flight I've ever taken."
Cons: "Not much leg room. Make sure they seat your party members together at check-in."
Pros: "Great service, on schedule. The only flight to CNX. I am so happy they got me to CNX."
Pros: "Had trouble with Vietjet charging me additional money for a flight change that didn’t go through on their website. Tried to explain it to them at the airport and they didn’t understand. Tried contacting them on their website and still didn’t understand how to fix it."
Cons: "Better policies and a website that works when changing/booking flights"
