Ms. Tansita Akraritpirom, Head of Commercial for Thai AirAsia said: “AirAsia is a leader in the domestic flight market in Thailand with its extensive network and convenient services from both Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports. Since September, the carrier is now operating four routes out of Suvarnabhumi Airport, flying to Chiang Mai (5x daily), Phuket (3x daily), Krabi (1x daily) and Hat Yai (1x daily) to meet strong and growing demand.”
