Good news for flyers in Thailand, Thai Airways is encouraging its flyers to stay home during the COVID-19 pandemic by giving out 1 free mile for every 4 hours at home.

This campaign is only for Royal Orchid Plus members who stay in Thailand during the outbreak.

To make sure we’re at home, the airline has created the application called “THAI Stay Home Miles Exchange” to track our movements, which will be available on both IOS and Andriod.

Note that the participation period for each operating system is as follows:

  • IOS: 27 April to 26 May 2020
  • Android: 24 April to 23 May 2020

After downloading the application, you will be required to pin your location. It will then start calculating your miles.

However, if you step away from the pinned location for more than 100 metres, the application will send a notification and automatically stop counting the time for you.

After the campaign ends, you’ll be able to transfer the miles to your Royal Orchid Plus account, which should be shown by 10th July 2020.

Thai Airways is giving away 1,000,000 miles in total, which is split in half for each operating system.
