Bangkok's domestic airport resumes service [today] Thursday

BANGKOK: -- Bangkok's Don Mueang domestic airport, shut down by angry anti-government People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) protesters since last Wednesday last week, will resume normal services from 6am [today] Thursday, airport director Anirut Thanomkulbutra said.

Speaking to a press conference, Flying Officer Anirut said the first flight to leave Don Mueang Thursday morning will be a Thai Airways flight to Ubon Ratchathani in the northeast.

Service at the airport returned to normal after the PAD protesters left the terminal on Wednesday.

Surachai Thansitthipong, Permanent Secretary for Transport, said THAI had arranged some 140 flights carrying 30,000 stranded passengers out of Thailand up to Tuesday after Suvarnabhumi international airport was closed by protesters one day earlier than Don Mueang.

The substitute flights departed from U-tapao airport southeast of Bangkok and some other provincial airports..
