Thai Airways International (THAI) has admitted it is struggling to sell its decommissioned Airbus A340 aircraft as they are unpopular in the used plane market, the national flag carrier's public relation unit says.
The airline's statement came after a group of about 100 THAI staff on Sunday called for Prime Minister Prayut Chan­o­cha to invoke Section 44 of the interim constitution to probe the procurement of 10 Airbus A340 planes bought by the national flag carrier, which have been grounded and "left to rot".
