Beginning 1st October, Thai Vietjet will Operate Nonstop Flights between Ahmedabad and Bangkok
Thai VietJet Air, a budget airline in Thailand and a partner of VietJet Air in Vietnam, will start operating three-weekly nonstop flights between Bangkok and Ahmedabad on 1st October this year. The airline has announced this journey at special offer fares with a travel time of under four hours. This added competition is welcome news for both countries, as it will give visitors to India and Bangkok another reasonable flight option.
Jay L. Lingeswara, the director of commercial operations at Vietjet, mentioned that widening the airline’s routes to India is an invitation to tourists from the subcontinent to enjoy Vietnam as a destination and use it as a passage to other parts of East, South and North Asia. Thai VietJet also runs flights from Bangkok to Phnom Penh, Singapore, and Fukuoka.

Bangkok’s very own Singer-Songwriter Kash Band Features in the New Season of Ms Marvel
Versatility is the superpower of today’s generation, and this has been proven yet again. Kashan ‘Kash’ Rana, a singer-songwriter you may have heard of in local community events and parties, and whom Masala has previously covered in an exclusive feature, has now made it to the big screen by starring in an episode of Ms Marvel, a ground-breaking Marvel TV series, now out on Disney Plus.
The show by itself is ahead of its time, featuring a Pakistani-American super-hero in popular culture, and having community members like Kash line its cast is a matter of celebration for all of us. Kudos!
