Thailand airports update - DONE

[waerth]

I have found the official statistics for 2006 from the Thailand Aviation authority. I will add the new airports in myself through the update screen in the game . I want to correct some numbers for existing airports though and I cannot do that in the game, so figures will follow in this thread.

These are the sources:

Warning!!! Don Meuang was closed down in 2006 so that figure and the one for Suvarnabhumi are not the correct ones!!!! Don Meuang was reopened in 2007 for domestic flights

International airports:
CNX Chiang Mai: pax and  ton cargo according to:
HKT Phuket International: pax and  ton cargo according to:
HDY Hat Yai: pax and  ton cargo according to:
CEI Chiang Rai:  pax and  ton cargo according to:
UTP U-Taphao International Airport:  pax and  ton cargo according to:

Domestic airports:
BFV Buriram Airport:  pax according to:
KKC Khon Kaen Airport:  pax and  ton cargo according to:
KBV Krabi: pax and ton cargo according to:
USM Samui International Airport: pax according to:
URT Surat Thani: pax and  ton cargo according to:
UTH Udon Thani International Airport:  pax and  ton cargo according to:

Hope this helps I am now going to fill out the other airports ingame ......

I get the credits for telling him this  

[bibi974]

so there should be two bangkok airports...

[Jps]

Yea. But one is for only domestic

[bibi974]

yeah but just like Haneda Gimpo or Hongqiao which are almost 100% domestic airports

[Jps]

yeah but just like Haneda Gimpo or Hongqiao which are almost100% domestic airports

This one is fully domestic  

[bibi974]

yeah sure so far it has been. It would be more realistic by the way to differenciate domestic from international airports by the way. it is kind of unrealistic to me to be able to fly Hong Kong Haneda for instance.

Also Manila has 2 airports!!
One international and one Domestic
T1 All international Airlines
T2 Philippine Airlines and Air Philippines (SErves as International and Domestic)
Manila Domestic Airport- All other Airlines that fly to other Philippines Destination.

The strange thing is that all of these buildings are all far from each other and making connections is hard coz u need to collect ur luggage and transfer to the other buildings meaning u need to undergo the Manila traffic jams. But there is less traffic than Kuala lumpur.

Ermmm Bangkok is a bit different from Manilla.

In Bangkok the old Airport Don Meuang is physically approx 30 kilometers from the new one Suvarnabhumi.

Thaksin wanted everyone to move to Suvarnabhumi after it opened even though Suv's capacity is only 45,000,000 and it will be at that capacity already this year!! And they haven't started the expansion yet (typical case of TIT This Is Thailand). So they reopened good old Don Meuang for a few of the domestic flights (not all some are still operating from Suv). I personally hate the new airport, but that is another story ....

So at Manilla it is two buildings sharing the same field while in Bangkok they are physically in different parts of town!

In the past I noticed that many new submitted airports appeared on a Tuesday (or was it Wednesday? cant remember). Just submitted a bunch of airports in Greece.

Nice to see that you will handle the airports in India. Now I can delete them from my to-do-list Still a lot to do. Next ones I will submit (or search for updated pax/cargo data): Chile, Finland & Hungary. When you have finished India would you like to take another nation? If so please let me know. Just to avoid double work. :wink:

Yes Jan I could do the Saudi Arabia one as well. If you find any other data for small nations in the Asia and pacific area please PM it to me ..... according to another game there should be 35 airports in Myanmar ..... I would love to have the data for that

Rick does his best and when able he adds or updates the data. I am working on a better backend system to speed up this process as there is a significant workload to get through.

@waerth
I will see what I can do for Myanmar and let you know.

@Stephen
Sure he does. Otherwise I guess he would not be part of the team anymore It is just like us "being a customer". A customer wants its meal hot and fast and does not want to wait an hour Although a good meal in a full restaurant needs that time. Hope he does not feel bad cause we push him and throw a lot of work on his desk...
