Look back to the old Don Muang Airport (Article)
Tuesday, October 24th, 2006As the door slides open to the vast, empty Terminal One building at Don Muang airport, the holiday-makers pause, as if thinking they are about to enter no-man’s land. Ten flights is a busy day at Don Muang now and many staff long for the headier times of the past The trance is broken as an army of beaming staff rush to serve.
”For airport staff, sitting idle is a big shock from the head-spinning, demanding workload of the past,” said Don Muang director Pinit Saraithong. ”It is no surprise that passengers receive such enthusiastic pampering.”

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006As the closure of the 92-year-old Don Muang airport last month has dramatically changed the business landscape for hotels situated in its neighbourhood as airport-related business and guests have dried up.

Dining at Suvarnabhumi Airport (Guide / Article)
Thursday, October 12th, 2006Dining is one of the new airport’s highlight features with a range of sophisticated sports bars, trendy restaurants and world-class gastronomy available.
Thanks to the Thai sanook (Fun) attitude, the new airport has unintentionally become the city’s newest and, of course, biggest recreational site.
While the airport terminal lures crowds of curious, fun-loving visitors who want to check out the modern facilities, departing Boeings grab people’s attention just like spaceships blasting off. And the airport’s futuristically designed building itself has become a favourite backdrop for streetside picnics for many locals.
