According to the Ministry of Transport, the number of flights between Thailand and China has increased to 55, 000 in the last eight weeks since the two nations signed a joint card provision contract.
According to Deputy Transport Minister Surapong Piyachote on Saturday, the 55, 433 planes from October last year to May represented a 213 % increase over the same eight-month period a year earlier.
According to the government, 86,150 flights will fly between the two nations in the fiscal season that ends on September 30.
Now, flights from China work at Don Mueang, Suvarnabhumi, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Samui and Krabi terminals. Flights to and from financial hubs like Chengdu in western Chinese province have seen a notable increase.
Over the past eight times, 5, 896 planes were recorded to and from Chengdu, with aspirations of the range reaching 8, 850 by yr- end.
Mr. Surapong claimed to have requested more space from Aeronautical Radio of Thailand ( Aerothai ) to handle more and more flight volumes.
Aerothai is improving heat traffic service efficiency through fresh horizontal routes, upgraded technology systems, and improved airspace management guidelines, he said.
Programs include the installation of methods to increase capability and efficiency through atmosphere traffic flow management ( ATFM) practices, as well as a new air traffic management system.
The aim is to control about 2 million flights by 2038, with a emphasis on personnel training, way adjustments, airport design and setting up off- site back air traffic management.
Nopasit Chakpitak, president of Aerothai, reported that the company had begun a project to create the U-tapao Airport and Eastern Aviation City as part of its initial stage.
The airport serves as a future aircraft maintenance hub, encouraging business development, especially in the tourism, logistics, and aviation sectors, and the phase primarily targets air cargo transportation from the Eastern Economic Corridor ( EEC ), particularly flights from China.
