Thursday, October 4th, 2007

National and international airlines have praised an overall improved service at Suvarnabhumi airport which will mark its first anniversary on Sep 28, 2007, airport director Serirat Prasutanond said Thursday.

He said a number of airline managers have lauded the continuous improvement of service at Suvarnbhumi airport, adding that airport officials had followed up on arising problems and worked out solutions accordingly.

One of the positive changes is a permission for licensed taxis to offer service on the second floor of the passenger terminal, starting Oct. 1 to solve the problem of unauthorized taxis touting for passengers, Serirat said.




Thai Airways president opposes Don Muang as international airport

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

Thai Airways International Public Co., Ltd. (THAI), the country’s flag carrier, opposes the idea of reinstating Bangkok’s former airport, Don Muang, now serving airliners for domestic routes, as another international airport to ease traffic congestion at Suvarnabhumi international airport.

Thai Airways president Apinan Sumanaserani said Suvarnabhumi international airport, which celebrates its first anniversary of commercial opening September 29, is  busy during heavy traffic only. In fact, the airport could easily cater to some 60-70 million passengers annually without problems, he said.




One-Two-Go Airlines shifting flights from Don Muang to Suvarnabhumi Airport

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

The budget carrier One-Two-Go Airlines is shifting some of its operations back to Suvarnabhumi Airport from the old Don Muang airport where it had concentrated its flights since last September.

The airline quietly launched its first scheduled daily flight from the new Bangkok airport to Phuket on Aug 17 and will gradually increase flight frequency on the route to four per day.

The goal is to help passengers connecting with international flights and to meet demand from local travellers who find it more convenient to board flights at Suvarnabhumi, said the airline’s chief executive, Udom Tantiprasongchai.
