Transport to Suvarnabhumi airport operable in September

BANGKOK: -- Thailand's Land Transport Department affirmed the readiness of transport service for passengers to Suvarnabhumi airport scheduled to open for commercial purposes on September 28.

Director-General Piyapan Champasut said that transport services to the new Bangkok airport will include limousines, airport buses, and airport express service.

The limousines will be provided by the Thai Airways International Public Company Limited and another two companies to be selected by a bidding process.

Airport buses--including inter-provincial bus service--will be run by the Transport Co., Ltd and the Bangkok Mass Transit Authority.

The airport express service operated by the Thonburi Service Co., Ltd. will provide buses running through business areas and to downtown hotels in areas such as Silom and Wireless roads.

The director general said the fare cost of the services --including limousines--would not be expensive.

Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra said the transport service to the airport is not aimed to reap benefit but to promote the country. Bus access and seating will be modified to facilitate passengers with disabilities, he added.
