Thai Airways TG910 flies the jet-stream + mountain-wave corridor from London to Bangkok. Conditions change hour to hour — view the live forecast for your departure date.
View live forecastJet-stream exposure on this corridor is significant. Long mid-latitude legs mean clear-air turbulence is the dominant source of bumps, typically encountered at cruise altitude. The route crosses or passes near the Tien Shan / Pamirs, Himalayas, which can generate mountain-wave turbulence downwind when upper-level winds are strong. Flying eastbound, aircraft usually benefit from tailwinds near the jet core, which trims flight time — but the edges of the jet are where clear-air turbulence most often sits.
Calmest season: Late spring and early autumn. Wind flowing over Tien Shan / Pamirs can generate mountain-wave turbulence that extends hundreds of kilometres downwind — most pronounced in winter when upper-level winds are strongest.
