rooster59 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 New terminal to help ease Don Mueang airport congestion By The Nation Don Mueang International Airport held the main pillar erection ceremony for the construction of a passenger terminal at the parking area. The airport’s deputy general manager (Operations), Major Kamon Wongsomboon, said that the two-storey building will be adjacent to the International Passenger Terminal 1 on the north side. This building will be used as a check-in point for group tours only. “This terminal will help reduce the congestion of passengers inside the airport,” he said. “The construction started on November 18 this year and will be completed on April 15 next year, while the construction period is 150 days.” He added that the operation may affect passengers and people travelling around. “We want to warn people to be careful when using routes in the airport area,” he added. “The airport will accept any comments or suggestions to improve the service further.” Source: https://www.nationthailand.com/news/30379705 -- © Copyright The Nation Thailand 2019-12-22 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phkauf Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Construction period of 150 days??? Using Thai construction companies, no way in hell it gets done. But I think this is a great idea since so much of the mayhem at DMK is caused by the large tour groups from China blocking everything up. Hopefully they will have their own immigration area as well. It's not bad when the tour groups are stuffing the place up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be named the portacabin terminal. The biggest container building in Asia, probably the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searat7 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 I wonder why they never fixed up the third terminal building there which I think is empty (next to Domestic terminal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Why indeed. I was just about to write the same thing. Why build new when there's a large unused building already, the old domestic terminal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why build new when there's a large unused building already, the old domestic terminal? I guess it depends on who is paying for the new one. But the old one next to Terminal 2 isn't very convenient for moving IOs between what will be two international terminals. I wonder where they'll put the busses and where it will feed into the concourse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
