One year from today, Thailand will be served for the first time by the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, with the global leisure travel group TUI Travel Plc flying the ''toxicologically revolutionary'' jetliner non-stop from the UK.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner travels at Mach 0.85, making it one of the fastest wide-bodied jetliners.
Thomson Airways, TUI's charter airline subsidiary, will launch a weekly flight from London's Gatwick airport to Phuket on Nov 5, 2013.
