Domestic terminal opens another section for the high season

Phuket International Airport will open the domestic terminal on the north side of the old terminal to welcome travellers during Phuket’s tourism high season starting November 28. The south section, which is currently used as the domestic terminal, will be closed down for renovation.

The opening will offer more convenience to the passengers, both departures and arrivals, with a wider check-in area, more check-in counters and a more organised pick-up and drop-off points.

The drop-off points for departures will be on the 2nd floor of the platform while the pick-up point for arrivals will be on the 1st floor. For personal vehicles, the parking in front of the domestic terminal and the five floors of the parking building are now available.

The security screening on luggage and belongings has been upgraded using a Terminal Screening system while the conventional X-Ray machine as well as Walk Through Metal Detector (WTMD) have been installed at the newly opened section.
