Nok Air has reinstated two daily direct flights from Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) to Krabi International Airport (KBV) starting 2nd August 2024. This new service enhances travel convenience and connectivity between Bangkok and Krabi, a premier destination in Thailand.
The inaugural flight featured special onboard activities and souvenirs for passengers. Upon arrival, the Boeing 737-800 was welcomed at Krabi International Airport with a festive water cannon salute by the Department of Airports.
“The reintroduction of the Bangkok (Don Mueang) – Krabi route improves travel convenience for both Thai and international passengers, facilitating easy access to Krabi’s attractions. The route will initially operate two flights daily, with potential increases during peak travel seasons based on strong advance bookings,” said Ranon Viputsiri, Chief Commercial Officer of Nok Air.
