Suvarnabhumi Airport, New Bangkok Airport, Thailand

Dining at Suvarnabhumi Airport (Guide / Article)
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.
New Bangkok Airport up and running
October 11th, 2006Two weeks will have passed tomorrow since Suvarnabhumi Airport was opened for commercial operation; thankfully no disaster, complete chaos or serious multiple failures occurred.
The teething troubles seem to have been gradually resolved and kept to minimum with great determination, apparently due to the total dedication, the high spirit of teamwork among parties concerned and well-laid-down contingency plans.
In a poll I conducted, international airline managers, who were utterly critical about the readiness of the 125-billion-baht airport ahead of its Sept 28 opening, have given a passing grade in its initial operation. Scores of airline executives, who were on the ground, rated Suvarnabhumi’s terminal and operations about six or seven on a scale of 10, a pretty fair assessment and consistent with scores that Airports of Thailand Plc (AOT) which runs the airport, has given itself.
New Bangkok Airport’s a smash with Tammy
October 11th, 2006On her first visit to Bangkok’s new Suvarnabhumi Airport, Thai tennis star Tamarine Tanasugarn noticed one thing that really stood out – the place looked like it needed a good clean.
Wherever she looked there was dust. “I want to volunteer as a cleaner,” she said.
On her return from Tashkent a week later, Tamarine saw some dramatic improvements and had a change of mind.
She was overwhelmed with what she saw this new version of Suvarnabhumi turned out to be cleaner, in better order and looked very futuristic.
