Thailand: Bangkok infrastructure faulted
Bangkok airport infrastructure is deficient, having failed to expand fast enough to cope with staggering traffic demand. Bangkok is one of 8 cities highlighted by IATA for aviation infrastructure shortcomings. IATA DG Alexandre De Juniac has taken govts to task for not doing enough to meet aviation infrastructure needs, calling for greater urgency to ensure infrastructure matches demand. Bangkok, whose two main airports, Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang, are facing critical congestion, was singled out along with Sydney, Manila, Jakarta, Mumbai, Mexico City, New York and Sao Paulo for suffering bottlenecks. Figures from AOT showed a total of 59.1m passengers were crammed into Suvarnabhumi in the fiscal year to Sept 30, up 6.5% from the previous year, while its capacity stands at 45m passengers a year. <br/>
