Suvarnabhumi Airport apologises after Chinese fans disrupted Thai Airways flight

Suvarnabhumi Airport apologised after Chinese fans following a Chinese actor disrupted a Thai Airways flight, leading to 22 passengers being denied boarding for security reasons. The July 29 incident began when fans followed the artist into unauthorized areas, ignored ticket checks, and rushed the aircraft. Thai Airways closed the aircraft door and refused boarding to 22 group members who breached security procedures, delaying the flight. Ten of the denied passengers refused to remove baggage, sparking further confrontation; some security staff acted improperly and faced disciplinary action. Airport procedures are under review. Actors Sun Zheng and Lu Sitong were involved.
