Naew Na were in Khon Kaen on Sunday where provincial governor Dr Somsak Jangtrakul and local dignitaries paid an inspection visit to the international airport.

 

The new terminal there - Terminal 2 - is now 95% complete and they were conducting a trial reopening now that domestic flights have resumed. 

 

They were there when Vietjet VZ 216 arrived from Suvarnabhumi airport.

 

Strict measures to prevent Covid-19 were in place and the governor expressed his satisfaction with what he saw. 

 

This included what the media called a Termal Gate.

 

We think they meant Thermal.

Does anyone know, or even care, where these so called Int fights will be going to from KK? I mean if civilisation ever returns, that is.

From Thai media back in December 2020:-

 

In an interview with local media the governor of Khon Kaen has intimated that direct flights between the north eastern Thai city and Vietnam and Singapore are a possibility.

 

 

Pre-Covid-19, when I was a Tourist Police Volunteer in Khon Kaen, Vientiane and Luang Prabang in Laos were also mentioned along with several Chinese destinations.
