Phuket International Airport (Thai: ท่าอากาศยานภูเก็ต, RTGS: Tha-akatsayan Phuket) (IATA: HKT, ICAO: VTSP) is an international airport serving the Phuket Province of Thailand. It is in the north of Phuket Island, 32 kilometres (20 mi) from the centre of Phuket City. The airport plays a major role in Thailand's tourism industry, as Phuket Island is a popular resort destination. It is the third-busiest airport in Thailand in terms of passengers, after Suvarnabhumi Airport and Don Mueang International Airport in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region. The airport set a record 15.1 million arrivals and departures in 2016, up 17.8 percent from 2015.[2]

Terminals[edit]

The airport has three terminals: Terminal 2 is used for international flights, and Terminal 3 for domestic flights. Terminal X for charter flights opened in February 2014.

Phuket Airport underwent a 5.14-billion-baht expansion and renovation, with the work completed in 2016.[3] The capacity of the new international terminal is 12.5 million passengers per year.[4] The expansion increased airport capacity to 20 million passengers a year from its previous capacity of 6.5 million.[5] A rail link from an alternate airport, Krabi, was suggested in 2012, as Phuket is congested with little room to expand.[6]

Future[edit]

Main article: Phang Nga airport

A new international airport, which will serve three provinces—Phang-Nga, Phuket and Krabi, is proposed. The airport will be built in two phases, out of which the first phase is expected to be completed by 2025. The airport will be able to cater more than 5 million passengers per year, and after the second phase, will cater to over 25 million passengers per year. It will serve as an alternative to Phuket and Krabi airports.[7][8][9]

Incidents and accidents[edit]

  • On 15 April 1985 a Thai Airways Boeing 737-2P5 crashed, killing all 11 people on board. The crew had issued a radio call informing air traffic control that both engines had flamed out. No cause could be determined for the engine shutdown.[77]
  • On 31 August 1987 Thai Airways Flight 365 from Hat Yai International Airport crashed into the ocean upon final approach, killing all 83 people on board. The investigation determined pilot error as the primary cause.[78]
  • On 16 September 2007 One-Two-GO Airlines Flight 269 arriving on a scheduled flight from Bangkok's Don Mueang Airport crashed after hitting the runway while attempting to land in driving rain and severe wind shear.
