Phuket, Thailand: New terminal at Phuket International Airport starts in November
Phuket, Thailand: Following a series of delays over the last two years, construction of the new International terminal at Phuket International Airport is now scheduled to get underway at the beginning of November.
The 5.9 billion baht (US$197 million) project was first presented to shareholders back in 2009 by Phuket International Airport's acting director, Wing Commander Passakorn Surapipit.
However, the departure of the Airports of Thailand PLC (AOT) president Serirat Prasutanand on the 9th March this year delayed the tendering process further whilst his successor, Manit Watanasen, was appointed.
Once complete, terminal three will have a new runway, a refuelling zone, additional car parking, an AOT office and a cargo building.
The project follows the success of the second terminal which was opened in 2009
