    How about reducing fares to help the airline fill the seats. By offering value for money instead of Jasmine rice, the airline could increase, just look at the fares from the oil nations ..you think they are running at a lost? No the are offering value for money, and filling all their flights. and as the National airline you offer unfair routes in Thailand, Why can you not offer bus route services? 3, 4, 5 stops around the country..say...BKK to Phitsanulok to Phetchabun to Udon and back the other way, every day.
