On all THAI operated flights, for paid travel in most booking classes, you earn miles, plus additional class of service miles. For THAI operated flights less than 500 miles in distance, you earn a minimum of 500 miles.
Earning Miles
Miles are earned according to the fare paid, the class of service of your purchased ticket, and the distance flown.

Tier Status Bonus Miles*
Having and aspiring to Platinum, Gold and Silver status is even more rewarding with Tier Status Bonus Miles earned on international flights operated by THAI (TG 3 digit flight number).
Tier Status Bonus Miles are earned according to the tier status with each flown qualifying flight. These additional miles are calculated on top of actual miles flown and any applicable class of service bonus miles.*
