A vice president of the airline, Narongchai Tanadchangsaeng, and his team met at the Samui Palm Beach Resort, during which Rangsan Tongyad, deputy chief administrator of Samui municipality, explained that he will work together with airport staff to figure out a solution. “Many locals and I myself have houses situated near the airport and are very much disturbed by the noise. The number of flights has increased from 36 to 50 a day,” said Mr Rangsan.

TheLobster Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Sounds like someone hasn't had their 'cut' Are the restrictions of no flights taking off before 6am and landing after 11pm still in place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I know people that built houses near the airport because "with more planes the price will rise" 15 years ago nobody lived there, now they complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 This seems to be a world wide problem. People that buy near an airport should be ready for the noise. In Calgary the new twin runway of the Internatonal airport was recently opened, and now about 9 people have called the complaint line thousands of times to complain of the noise, the idiots did not check their location before buying their houses. The sellers also were shady showing the houses when the busy flight times were not in effect. Buyer Beware. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it is a second airport people want Jimmy, it is cheaper direct flights. Still, some progress has been made with the residents discount.

longtom Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I wish somebody would care about the bloody noise from all the motorbikes with 'enhanced exhausts', they are about as loud as a truck and very frequent now. Try having a discussion somewhere in Nathon when the schoolboys are loose! Off topic, I know, but I couldn't care less for people who bought a villa close to the airport, they knew what's coming!
