Suvarnabhumi Airport unveils its new logo
Thursday, March 18th, 2010Suvarnabhumi Airport makes public its new logo for the first time on 15th January 2010.
Mr. Serirat Prasutanond, the President of Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited (AOT), revealed the new logo of Suvarnabhumi Airport. He also said that the creation of a logo is a measure to support AOT’s vision of being “Asia’s Leading Airport Business“, and aim of becoming a World Top 10 Airport in Airports Council International’s (ACI) Airport Service Quality ranking program.
Mr. Nirandra Theeranartsin, the General Manager of Suvarnabhumi Airport, explained that the new logo was selected from the 635 entries in the Suvarnabhumi Airport Logo Design Contest, held from 20th July – 20th August 2009. The contest was open to the Thai general public, intended to promote works of Thai nationals to the international arena. AOT invited expert judges from education institutions and a private firm. The criteria for judging includes modern design, colour and concept to convey the phrase ‘golden land‘, which is the meaning of Suvarnabhumi, and to show that it is a reputable international airport. The winner of the 1st prize is Mr. Taotai Suksirithada, a graduate student from Chulalongkorn University , who received
100,000 (one hundred thousand) baht and an award from HRH Princess Soamsavali.
Mr. Nirandra added that in addition to the winning prize, Suvarnabhumi Airport Thailand awarded 6 commendation prizes, which each person received 10,000 (ten thousand) baht, a trophy and a certificate. Also 8 other finalists were awarded 2,000 (two thousand) baht and a certificate. The forthcoming exhibition of Suvarnabhumi Airport Logo in the Passenger Terminal building will also show the logos from the 53 finalists. The 1st prize award presentation by HRH Princess Soamsavali will be held on the 26th January 2010 at 15:00, in the Passenger Terminal building. Her Royal Highness will also preside over the opening of the exhibition.
Suvarnabhumi airport launches free wi-fi Internet service
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009Suvarnabhumi Bangkok’s international airport now offers free wireless Internet access for passengers.
Nirandra Theeranartsin, general manager of Suvarnabhumi Airport, said the service, along with paid access for persons outside departure areas, was inaugurated this week.
Passengers wishing to use the service must present their boarding passes at any airport information counter to get a username and password for the 1 Mbps service.
Earlier this year, Suvarnabhumi Airport opened 126 kiosks providing free Internet access for people without laptops.
Airport officials this year are implementing upgrades and new security measures costing upward of $4.4 million, including more restrooms, improved signs and the upholstery of all 19,000 cold metallic seats with turquoise, peach, green and purple cushions that brighten Suvarnabhumi’s concrete-and-steel design.
Courts dismisses cases concerning Suvarnabhumi Bangkok Airport Thailand
Thursday, June 25th, 2009The Supreme Administrative Court on Wednesday ruled that Airports of Thailand (AoT) should continue to be responsible for solving the problem of noise pollution of residential areas around Suvarnabhumi airport, as set out in a cabinet resolution of May 29, 2007.
The court dismissed the petition submitted by a number of people living near the airport, who said the cabinet resolution was unfair to them. In its judgement, the court upheld the cabinet resolution, saying it was legitimate, and said the Airports of Thailand (AoT), which operates the Bangkok airport, had actually taken measures to solve the noise problem, in line with the cabinet resolution.
About 80 people living in the affected area were at the court to hear the ruling.
