A group of Thai students was left stranded at Suvarnabhumi Airport after a promised study trip to China was found to have no booked flights.
Parents had paid 39,900 baht per student, amounting to more than 1.7 million baht in total, and the programme organiser had claimed a memorandum of understanding with a Chinese university before changing the destination from Xi’an to Beijing; the airline later confirmed that no flights had been booked for the group.
The Office of the Basic Education Commission is launching a comprehensive probe into the educational scam, and its secretary‑general said the program had no connection to the commission.
