Burmese carrier launches flights to new Bangkok Airport
Friday, May 18th, 2007Air Bagan, the first privately owned carrier in military-ruled Burma, has started daily flights between Rangoon and Bangkok, its first international route heralding an ambitious overseas expansion. The airline, which was launched in November 2004 as a domestic carrier, is also preparing to start daily flights from its Rangoon hub to Singapore in September, and a Rangoon-Mandalay-Kunming route in August, twice weekly.
Royal celebrations lift visitor arrivals to Thailand in 2006
Wednesday, May 16th, 2007The positive global publicity generated by the 60th anniversary of His Majesty the King’s Accession to the throne was a major contributing factor for Thailand’s tourism industry recording 13.82 million visitor arrivals in 2006, up by more than 20% over 2005.
The high rate of increase in 2006 was a reflection of the country’s tourism industry returning to normal following the severe impact of the tsunami in 2005, and 2007 is likely to see arrivals settling down to a more modest single-digit growth level of 7% to just under 15 million.
Don Mueang Airport reopened costs Airports of Thailand loss 70 Million Baht a month
Friday, May 11th, 2007The reopening of Don Mueang airport in March is making a dent in the balance sheet of Airports of Thailand (AOT), with a monthly loss of 70 million baht.
The loss reflects operating costs that far outstrip the income derived from serving a small number of non-connecting flights, at 140 to 160 a day, and daily passenger throughput of around 18,000.
