webfact Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Department proposes cut in rental, parking, landing fees at 28 airports By THE NATION Tawee Gasisam-ang (Photo credit: Department of Airport website) The Department of Airports will ask the Transport Ministry this week to consider its proposal to cut aviation fees at its 28 airports to ease the burden on airlines and businesses suffering from the impact of the Covid-19 outbreak, said director-general Tawee Gasisam-ang on Monday (March 2). Among the measures will be a 50 per cent cut in rental fees for business operators in passenger terminals, 50 per cent reduction in landing fees and a 90 per cent cut in parking fees. The measures will last from March to August this year. If approved, the plan will be forwarded to the cabinet for consideration. “Airlines and businesses at the airports have suffered from declining passenger numbers, due mainly to the impact from the Covid-19 coronavirus,” he added. Earlier, the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand said it would ask the Civil Aviation Board when it meets on March 6 to consider relief measures proposed by some 20 airlines suffering the effects of the virus outbreak.

Tomy yupyup Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) I hope the help is refused. The prices in Thailand’s airports is a joke. Edited March 2, 2020 by Tomy yupyup Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puchaiyank Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I liked the bosses better when they were losing baht...they increase prices...this lowering of prices is confusing and could result in lower prices for hotel rooms, condos, and housing. What is happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christophe75 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Perfect thai logic. Cut the landing fees.... will make the airlines land their... empty aircrafts. More. They will think : "such a bargain in Suva ! Allez send all our float !" ???? I told you that the virus was exciting for every small civil servant, bureaucrats, with a uniform, in this country (AKA all of them). They can come out and send an inane idea in front of TV cameras and journalists, and look important. In charge. Its obvious. And it's already a festival.
