The Domestic Terminal is a single-storey building with a mezzanine level for departures and a bar and restaurant. The check-in area seldom gets crowded and can be found to the left of the Arrivals area as you approach the front entrance. All airline desks can be found here, along with some souvenir shops, a bureau de change and several ATMs. There are also fast-food outlets and a number of coffee shops. An information desk is located in the middle of this elongated terminal, and security is placed at the entrance to the terminal building to ensure no bombs are brought into the public area. The new International Terminal is due to be completed in mid-2007 to handle improved international services. Most of the arrivals (about 15 per day) are from Bangkok, which is a 1-hour flight away.

Transportation: from the airport is a straight forward affair and no journey time to any city district hotel takes more than 15 minutes, due to the airport’s proximity to the city and a ring road system. The most common way to leave the airport is by metered taxi, of which there are numerous available, usually without a wait. Fares aren’t expensive. Tuk-tuk drivers also hustle for business outside the terminal exit. A public bus service also runs from the airport on a select route to the city centre, but it isn’t popular with tourists. Parking: has been improved, with recent renovations and expansion, and ample space is available within close proximity to the terminal at marginal fees. |
