Great begining step for Laos Airliners to meet the level of the international. Laos oversea from north America don't have to stop in Thailand in the future.

Great move, go laos go.

That's very good news if it really happen.  As Lao Nalks living in oversea, I really, really hate it when it's time to go & visit my cousin/relative in Lao via bkk.  Not only we have to stay overnite in bkk, but also we have to spend some $$$$ on foods & other items.  The $$ we spend in bkk, it helps their economy shoot up.
