================================================================

When researching flights from Singapore to Bangkok, an intriguing option revealed itself: a fifth freedom flight with Gulf Air for only USD80. It was only a tad bit more expensive than the low cost carriers, and I had never flown Gulf Air before, so I happily booked it.

The flight to BKK was surreal as there were only about a dozen passengers on the Boeing 787. The taxi to runway 02R was probably the longest taxi I've ever been on. The aircraft taxied north from the west side of T1, past the T5 construction site, and then southwards to the southern end of runway 02R. Service was perfunctory and somewhat cold. The inflight meal consisted of two plastic wrapped pastries.

After landing in BKK, we taxied past dozens of stored aircraft. It felt like we were sailing past ghost ships.
