Advance IT systems ready at Suvarnabhumi Airport
Wednesday, September 27th, 2006Suvarnabhumi Airport has already laid claim to many superlatives – it has the tallest flight control tower in Asia and the world’s largest passenger terminal – but it also boasts a number of superlatives in terms of technology.
The Cargo Free Zone is the largest RFID implementation in the region and in terms of data storage, the Airport Information Systems and security systems together are the largest storage deployment that the local branch of EMC Thailand has provided.
Suvarnabhumi will also be the first place in Thailand where WCDMA 2100 MHz 3G antennas have been installed – years ahead of the formal introduction of 3G to this country.
Massive airport move may cause traffic jam
Wednesday, September 27th, 2006Parts of Vibhavadi Rangsit road are expected to be clogged today (September 27, 2006) and tomorrow (September 28, 2006) as a convoy of lorries carrying the last consignment of equipment leaves Don Muang for the new airport, Suvarnabhumi. Airport staff at Don Muang, which will shut down after tomorrow, began relocating facilities to Suvarnabhumi on Monday.
The relocation of the equipment, mainly the property of Thai Airways International (THAI), is expected to be completed in two days.More than 300 city and traffic policemen have been ordered to assist in the transport. Hundreds of trucks will be involved.
Farewells at Don Muang International Airport
Wednesday, September 27th, 2006Some tears were seen as airline employees and members of the public bid farewell to Bangkok International Airport at Don Muang Wednesday, taking photos in remembrance of times past.
Don Muang airport ends more than 90 years service to the public Wednesday and officially will be reborn as Suvarnabhumi Airport Thursday at 3am (0300 hours).
It is the last day Don Muang International Airport will provide services, but passengers and tourists continue to count on the airport for inbound and outbound flights as normal, at least on Wednesday.
