Slowly, gradually, but palpably, airlines are starting to increase their frequency and routes again.
Not Air is launching direct flights to Phuket from Northeastern Thailand (and visa versa), and Air Asia is adding flight from Phuket to Singapore, starting next Tuesday.
Yesterday morning, a Nok Air flight landed in Phuket, marking the new plan for one direct flight per week between Phuket and Ubon Ratchatani in Northeastern Thailand. Meanwhile, the manager of AirAsia at Phuket International Airport announced yesterday that there will be flights twice a week, on Tuesdays and Saturdays, between Phuket and Singapore.
In an announcement, the Tourism Authority of Thailand praised the airlines for connecting two major provinces, one in Thailand’s South, and the other in the Northeast.
“…connecting the big cities, bringing them closer together”.
