Thai Airways has turned its life vests and emergency door slide rafts into limited-edition tote bags.
The industrial styled bags follow the selling of the flight attendant experience, opening airplane-themed cafes, and retailing deep fried dough, a side venture that reportedly brings in 10 million baht (S$431,781) a month.
Pre-orders for the bags are available from Oct. 29, 2020, 2:19pm, Thai Airways said.
Prices
The bags in the “Project: Re” collection are selling for from 390 baht (SS$17) for a small pouch, to 4,990 baht (S$218) for a large bag.
Limited edition
The 1,590 baht (S$69.50) and 1,990 baht (S$87) bags have the pull tabs from life vests attached to them.
Each bag is also one-of-a-kind as vests have different serial numbers.
Customers will be limited to two bags per order.
“Help save the world from climate change; Thai Airways International introduces ‘Re-Life Collection,’ the bags reproduced from our disposed life vests and slide rafts,” the airline’s website said.
The items will be delivered in two month’s time, on Dec. 20.
The company, which had total liabilities of 332 billion baht, filed a bankruptcy restructuring plan back in May.
