Airports of Thailand (AOT) this week confirmed plans to invest $1bn in an expansion of its budget traveller terminal at Bangkok’s Don Mueang Airport.
Thailand has embarked on a large-scale expansion of its entire airports sector as part of its plan to boost growth on a coastal strip between Bangkok and the city of Pattaya, known as the Eastern Economic Corridor.
As well as the Don Mueang project, work will begin this year on an $8.8bn “aviation city” based on U-Tapao airport in eastern Rayong province and an expansion of the country’s largest airport at Suvarnabhumi.
All of these projects are to be linked with a $7.2bn high-speed railway.
