The authorities of Thailand are responding to the growing flow of tourists and are planning the construction of two new airports. Lanna Airport will be located in the northern province of Lamphun, near Chiang Mai, while Andaman Airport will be opened in Phangnga Province, near the popular resort of Phuket.

The annual passenger traffic of both airports is expected to reach 40 million people, with construction costs of about 4.3 billion dollars. It is planned to start the implementation of the project in the middle of 2024.

The authorities also plan to expand Phuket Airport and Bangkok's main Suvarnabhumi Airport, as well as improve the existing airports in Don Mueang and Chiang Mai.
