Feb 20 Thai budget carrier Nok Airlines said on Saturday it will cancel 20 domestic flights on Feb. 23 even as it faces an investigaton into earlier cancellations and the threat of having its licence suspended.
An official at the airline, a unit of Thai Airways International, told Reuters that passengers affected had been contacted and offered compensation or alternative flights.
"These are normal cancellations and we informed passengers three days in advance, which is in line with the (transport) ministry's regulations," she said.

On Monday, Deputy Transport Minister Omsin Chivapruek said Nok Air's operating licence could be suspended if there were more flight cancellations.
