Let's hope they keep them on permanently and add Phuket, Chiang Mai, KL, Penom Phen, Ho Chi etc etc
It is an international airport isn't it.

Anyone have any idea of the cost. Sounds like a great way to get to Singapore.

Hope they keep that service and it is a success for them.

I've tried to find more information about Bangkok Airway's flights to Hua Hin but as far as I can see our town is not mentioned at all on their web portal.

Have anyone actually observed a Bangkok Airways plane in Hua Hin?

I think these were extra flights to assist stranded travelers

I believe you're right ozuncle.
The flights lasted two days and that's it.
Back to normal with a 3 hrs taxi ride to Bangkok before you start your journey.
(SGA is not an option for me.)

what a shame on those ppl responsable for flight ops @ Bangkok Airways for not continueing those flights from Hua Hin. Whatb the Heck did they have an Airport here for when only one Airline are using them.

One of past away our Senior student and close friend of ours (Glod bless him for being such a special person.) was Asssitant Airport Manager @ Hua Hin Airport and he told usHe usually works til foir that's it drives around the roll field inspects the Runway and check the Kerosine stock for irregularities. which do happen every once in a whlie wehn a Borfei flight school studnets take more for his plane than they used to.
