Andrew Sloan and Richard Buckle talk about what is happening around Hua Hin, some stories - touring, scams, events, and news.

 

 

 

So, when are you guys going to get the airport up and running, with 30 flights a day? Air Asia has been interested in using Hua Hin as a regional hub, for years now, and all they have ever gotten is neanderthal style foot dragging from the officials here. Hua Hin Airport is one of the least utilized airports in Thailand, possibly even in the world. Shame on these guys. They can do so much better. Thailand desperately needs more regional airports, especially within a few hours of Bangkok. Anything to ease congestion, and save souls from the nightmare of getting in and out of Bangkok has to be a good thing for the nation and it's people. Shame. Shame.

“We will begin by growing the flight base at Hua Hin Airport with a focus on international destinations, and domestic travel and our numbers will take time to grow.  We will get started immediately working with the town and recruit local businesses to participate in our new programs, Open to the World and LIVE-LEARN-WORK-PLAY, in Hua Hin,” Laroche said.

And so? When? How? Why not? Why is this taking so many years? What is really going on here?

Great question SpiderMike????????. My friends and I have been talking about this topic too. It would be nice if HuaHin Today. did some investigative reporting as well as publishing the PR handouts from whomever. 

Will there not be a new airport in Nakhon Pathon just west of Bangkok? My wife talked about it some time ago. A big one. If that is true than I think the need for one in Hua Hin will be less.
