I wonder who is the millionaire or billionaire behind this airline ? The land bought at Koh Phangan to make an airpot cannot be cheap ? And still no airport ? weird.

Captain Somphong Sooksanguan (ร้อยเอก สมพงษ์ สุขสงวน ).

Information is quite scarce.

Probably a former air force rank?

One report from 2013 says that he had spent 200 million Baht of "his own" money for K.P. airport. And at that time already searching for external money/participation.

And he still is searching for partners.

Looks like he is not successful and ran out of money.

Thats Thailand. One bank I deal with here closed their branch here (I can understand why. Whenever I walked in there was no need to take a queue number) They never notified me of their closing or where my account went to. I tried their "call" centre and got a recording.

Oh dear. Your account went to the closest branch to the one that was closed, where it sits waiting for you to raid it.

If that's a bridge too far, you go there once, close the account and put the moolah in a bank which is more conveniently located.

Please excuse me while I turn on the aircon. I have a warm glow from helping out a fellow senior TV member.:sorry:

Good to know and I kind of figured that. This bank in my dealings with it puts the term country bumpkin to shame its just so incredible that they can operate as a bank. I phoned the call centre again today and was told the branch was open. So we went there and the door was papered over. I emailed their customer contact site twice no answer. Just incredible.

The airlines in America are making record profits. And they get to mess with the customers too. : )

I concur at the moment they are the flavor of the day.
