Phuket International Airport has launched enhanced safety and service measures ahead of the Songkran Festival, which begins tomorrow and runs through next Wednesday. Airport officials in Phuket confirmed preparations are underway to manage holiday operations, despite projections of a slight decrease in both flights and passenger numbers compared to last year.
Lower Holiday Traffic Expected
Airport representatives stated that this year’s Songkran period will see fewer flights and travelers than the previous festival. The airport did not specify exact figures but attributed the modest decline to broader travel trends.
Staffing levels and service counters have been adjusted accordingly to match anticipated demand. Officials said all safety protocols remain in place, with additional staff deployed to assist passengers during the holiday period.
