Still waiting on this one. Thai does not fly to the US, but is Star Alliance. Plus the direct tourism... However...
One problem is that unlike other many ethnic grups, the Thai population in the US is not that large. It's only 8,000 or so in the Bay Area compared to 27,000 in LA...little direct market and/or wrong hub to squeeze another widebody into.
Maybe it'll get done NRT-BKK on a 737 ?!?!?!
