Chula Sukmanop, director general of the Department of Airports and director of the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand, said businesspersons and government officials in four provinces, namely Beung Kan, Mukdahan, Pang Nga and Kanchanaburi, have suggested that an airport be built in their respective provinces.
The Department of Airports will conduct a feasibility study on such projects and decide if they will be worth investing and whether any airlines will eventually use the sought-after airports in those provinces.
Besides, the department is yet to consider how many potential passengers there would be to use those demanded airports.
