Map of Thailand Airports
Thailand has a total of 33 airports. To be honest, while I began gathering information and creating this map, I was surprised that Thailand has so many airports, perhaps too many.
However, considering that Thailand’s public land transportation is not that good, having a large number of airports appears to be a good alternative for upcountry travel.
Because Thailand has so many airports, I decided to divide them into three groups based on the services.
Categorized Thailand Airports into 3 groups
⇒ 6 Major International Airport (red): Providing large networks of airlines that cover both international and domestic services.
- Suvarnabhumi (BKK) (Bangkok Airport)
- Don Mueang (DMK)
- Chiang Rai (CEI)
- Chiang Mai (CNX)
- Phuket (HKT)
- Hat Yai (HDY)
⇒ 8 Semi-International Airport & Main Domestic Airport Hub (green): Only a few international flights are available. The majority of traffic is domestic flights.
- Udon Thani (UTH)
- Khon Kaen (KKC)
- Ubon Ratchathani (UBP)
- U-Tapao (UTP) (Pattaya/Rayong)
- Samui (USM)
- Nakhon Si Thammarat (NST)
- Surat Thani (URT)
- Krabi (KBV)
⇒19 Small Domestic Airport (gray): These small airports are located in small provinces or low volume of passengers for domestic travels.
- Pai (PYY)
- Mae Hong Son (HGN)
- Nan (NNT)
- Phrae (PRH)
- Loei (LOE)
- Lampang (LPT)
- Sukhothai (THS)
- Phitsanulok (PHS)
- Mae Sot (MAQ)
- Nakhon Phanom (KOP)

Hopefully, this map of Thailand airports could help you see the big picture of airport locations, names, and codes, which could help you effectively plan a trip to Thailand.
If you’re planning to travel to Thailand, you will probably book a flight to Suvarnabhumi Airport. It is the main and the largest airport in Thailand. Here are the best options to travel from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Bangkok City Center.
We will start our trip in Bangkok and then go to the following cities.
Buriram, Ubon Ratchathani, Nong Khai, Chaing Mai, Phuket and then back to Bangkok.
Would it be an option to fly from location to location? If so what airline? I have heard that you can fly from city to city for a low price but do I need to book these flights in advance or is same day an option?
Thank you!
Do you know if it is possible to fly between domestic airports or international to a domestic airport without having a stop in Bangkok first? Whenever I try to find a flight between 2 Thai airports, I always get a stop in Bangkok (BKK or DMK), I never get results for direct flights. I would like to find flights from Northeast Thailand to Chiang Mai and from Chiang Mai to Phitsanulok without having to fly to Bangkok first.
Many years back, Nok Air Airlines had a direct flight from Chiang Mai to Phitsanulok, but not anymore. The convenient options currently available are to take the train or bus.
WHAT IS THE ABBREVIATION OF KOH PANGAN AIRPORT IN THAILAND
Koh Pha Ngan has no airport. The closest one is Samui Airport (USM), then you can take a speed boat, 20-30 minutes, to Kho Pha-Ngan.
