Thai AirAsia X to Relocate Its Hub Back to Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok from October

Thai AirAsia X is set to relocate its Bangkok operations back to Don Mueang Airport on October 1st.

This move comes as a result of coordination with the Airports of Thailand (AOT) and the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand, and is described as a strategic decision.

Thai AirAsia X operates 8 Airbus A330 aircraft, flying from Suvarnabhumi International Airport to destinations such as Sapporo/Chitose, Tokyo/Narita, Nagoya/Chubu, Osaka/Kansai, Seoul/Incheon, Shanghai/Pudong, and Sydney. The airline plans to increase its fleet to 11 aircraft by the end of the year and then introduce 3 to 5 aircraft annually.

The short-haul routes of the group are mainly managed by Thai AirAsia, which primarily uses Don Mueang Airport, while Thai AirAsia X has been using Suvarnabhumi International Airport. They operate a total of 93 routes with 1,250 flights per week, holding over 40% of the market share in Thailand.

Furthermore, Thai AirAsia’s Bangkok/Suvarnabhumi to Chiang Mai, Phuket, Krabi, Hat Yai routes, and AirAsia X’s Bangkok/Suvarnabhumi to Kuala Lumpur route will continue to use Suvarnabhumi International Airport.
