Update on Surat airport parking

Featured Replies

Just got back from Surat airport and the parking has changed a bit and yes, they are charging now.

Ok, good news now, it looks like 15฿ a day! Crippling I know. Saw the cheap charlies still parking on the approach road for free but a bit of a hike to the terminal.

Motorbike parking is still free at the far south west corner of the parking area.

Still waaaaaay better than the crooks from Bangkok Airways at Samui airport.

Parking costs 200฿/Day at Phuket Airport so 15฿ seems like a bargain!

Wow, I stand corrected then, I was just assuming the price because it is in Thai.

Did Bangkok Airways buy the carpark or something?

 

cheap enough that my thai relatives would rather leave the car there when they fly down to Bangkok which they do reguarly as one is in hospital there,  They consider two days rent is better than taxi fares.

Are we talking about the same airport Harry? You fly up to Bangkok from this airport.

No but AOT are all the same I believe for their airports.  The only different ones are the ones Bangkok air own.  THere I think it is more like leaqve your car and your credit card and we may let you have the wheel back.

Surat airport is an airforce airport.

 

Before they started to charge, the parking was utterly chaos.

First time I parked there, no problem then Airasia started to fly in, the parking expanded four times in to the fields around it, double parking was the norm.

 

 

 

Although the airfield has a military presence....like most it is actually for civilian puposes ran by the Department of transport (sorry I was wrong about AOT I thought they ran all but it is DOT that runs regionals.

 

I will have to rephrase my post to DOT runs most regional Airports.  AOT runs important ones like Chiangrai. :) Bangkok Air runs a few.

II know the rates at the AOT airport for Chiangrai are capped at about 150 baht a day but I believe the short term rate is 10 baht for 10 minutes.

When I flew out of Surathani I went by taxi
