Bangkok Flights Edge Closer
EZY AIRLINES GRANTED LICENCE AND ROUTE ALLOCATION

Bangkok Flights Edge Closer

The granting of a civil aviation operating licence and route allocation for flights between Hua Hin and Bangkok to Ezy Airlines, who are operated by M-Landarch Co Ltd, has brought the prospect of faster travel to the capital a step closer, over two decades since such a service was previously available. The confirmation from officials was announced during a Prachuap Khiri Khan Joint Public and Private Sector Committee (JPPC) meeting this week, which was discussing the province’s tourism performance. One of the meeting’s discussions was to discuss the idea of a formal letter of support regarding the launch of scheduled flights.

It is still expected that previously announced flights from the airline, to Phuket, Surat Thani and Hat Yai, will commence this month, and the suggestion is that the Bangkok route may also be available from the same time. A promotional sightseeing flight last month, out of Hua Hin Airport, used a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX, capable of carrying 10 to 12 passengers, which is thought to be the type of aircraft that will be used for all routes. No details have yet been given for the first flights to the southern destinations, or for the capital flights, although starting dates and schedules may be affected by the work being carried out on the airport. The flight to Bangkok is likely to take around 40 minutes, and would almost certainly be into and out of the Don Mueang International Airport, rather than Suvarnabhumi.
