After that, in around May, the court will assemble Thai Airways creditors to vote on the plan. If a majority of creditors vote yes, the court will appoint rehabilitation plan administrators and Thai Airways will conduct its business according to the plan. If a majority of creditors vote no, Thai Airways will be declared bankrupt and will head towards liquidation. Originally, Thai Airways intended to submit the plan on Jan 2 but that did not happen.
