Hua Hin Airport: Officials seek public input on potential new flight routes

[webfact]

A new initiative to boost Prachuap Khiri Khan’s tourism prospects is underway.

 

Hua Hin Today has been tasked with sharing a questionnaire that aims to understand the travel preferences of both Thais and foreigners regarding potential new flight routes to and from Hua Hin Airport.

 

The move is part of the provincial administration’s broader strategy to revitalize tourism in Prachuap Khiri Khan and redevelop and upgrade Hua Hin Airport.

 

By gauging demand for specific flight routes, the airport aims to optimize travel times and enhance convenience for tourists visiting the province.

The insights gathered will contribute to the provincial administration’s working group dedicated to the progression of tourism in the region. The primary goal is to tailor transportation development, particularly in aviation, to meet the exact needs and preferences of tourists.

 

Residents and frequent travelers to Prachuap Khiri Khan are encouraged to voice their opinions and help shape the future of tourism in the area. As Hua Hin Airport looks to expand its connectivity and services, this questionnaire serves as a step in aligning its offerings with the needs of its diverse clientele.

How would that work?  The provincial administration doesn't schedule flights to/from Hua Hin, airlines do.  Would the government offer subsidies for certain routes that the survey indicates are wanted?
