Pricha Nawongs, THAI general manager for Denmark and Norway, received the award on behalf of THAI at the ceremony in Oslo on January 6. “I am honored and very proud on behalf of all the THAI staff to receive this award,” Pricha Nawongs said. “Since the route between Oslo and Bangkok was established in June 2009, the support from the Norwegian travel trade has been amazing. We have now increased to daily flights between Oslo and Bangkok; and from there further on to THAI’s many destinations in Asia, Australia and New Zealand. The award will encourage us to work even harder in the Norwegian market,” he added.
