Thai Airways International said on Thursday it was cancelling all flights from Munich, but would fly on Friday and Saturday from Frankfurt to Utapao, local media in Germany reported.


Passengers would be taken by bus to Bangkok.


A fully-booked Lufthansa flight was to leave on Thursday night, overfly Bangkok and land in Phuket, the airline said.\


German package-holiday companies cancelled holiday departures on Thursday for 1,200 Germans because Suvarnabhumi international airport remains occupied.


The holiday companies, which also cancelled outbound trips on Wednesday, were conferring with airlines on how to bring holidaying Germans home on schedule, with both of Bangkok's civilian airports closed.


Lufthansa, Thai Airways International and Air Berlin's LTU unit cancelled all Bangkok-bound Thursday departures.
