Jan 6, 2006 (newstodate): A direct route to Oslo Gardermoen is still not on the immediate agenda of Thai Airways.
-We have long invested much efforts in this project, but so far there is no decision by the airline, says Hilde Hirai, Thai Airways sales manager in Norway.
-The market for air travels to Thailand is around 80,000 passenger annually, but the Norwegian market may be more seasonal than Sweden's and Denmark's, she says.
-With a total of 13 departures from Stockholm and Copenhagen the Scandinavian market is rather well served, and competition is very strong in the Norwegian market leading to intense pressure on air fares. This makes a decision on adding flights to Oslo a very hard issue, says Ms Hirai.
