After its launch, the Bangkok Airways Facebook group has attracted more than 1,000 members in the first few months and the number is expected to grow steadily as members send more invites to their friends. The most visited feature of the page is the latest promotion section where members have access to the latest Bangkok Airways airfare promotions.

Says Chonlada Chevathakorn, "We have seen an astonishing viral spread to our Facebook campaign. The fans out there are really terrific. We're getting noticeable increase in the number of members every day and it is still going strong. The campaign also drives more traffic to the company's main website by giving us more exposure to another group of people. So far this has worked with promising results"
