Is it really a face issue?
Seven aborted landings is a lot to be fair, I wonder if there's any media reports.

I cannot find any diversions of a nok flight on FR24 for the last week
do you have a date or more details.
Are you sure there was no exageration. there have been IFR conditions so a go around or two would be expected. I doubt fuel for 7 go arounds and a diversion would be carried by NOK

Maybe it was an "alternative fact" ! Did it come from CNN ?  When I think of incompetence I think of the eighty something people killed on Phuket years ago in the One-2-Go incident. Absolutely appalling that was. Should never have happened. The main reason I refuse to use cheap charley airlines was because of that disaster. I actually did one flight with them before that, a one hour flight from BKK to CR, which was delayed three effin hours. Two hours waiting in the lounge and then another hour sitting in the stinking hot and stuffy plane before we left. Forkers ! |

Worst landing I ever had was at Phuket. Pilot landed long, and we were still traveling at speed when we left the runway, that was Thai Airway.. No Thai airline has a high IATA safety rating. Thai is best at 4/7 from last time I looked. Nok? You don't want to know. A lot of it is poor procedures.

www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/dd7524#cfecc89 It orbited for some time posiblly waiting for conditions to change. It appears to have made one aproach to about 400ft and as this was apparently still above visual it went around then diverted. Not 7 go arounds. As far as I can see there was no breach of safety involved. Go arounds above minima are safe and what is correct. He held a long time trying which shows good reserves were carried. Very positive response by the crew.

Whipping winds had the aircraft it trouble, seemed to skip sideways on landing. The purser apologized for the rough landing on behalf of the captain. |
