You forgot London City and Luton- If London can support LHR/STN/LCY/LGW/LTN business is business more is better in my opinion

There's also Saaaafend and Biggin Hill which also handles London flights.

No major city in the world can operate on one airport, impossible. The idea of Don Muang should be to house the likes of Air Asia, Nok Air etc. similar to Stansted in London.

It's not rocket surgery..!!!
:P

In real life however, more major cities make due with just one airport, then there are cities having multiple airports. Dmk is a dump, it is really showing its age and is inconvenient for any traveller who is looking for connecting flights. I am pretty certain that Air Asia would not want to move to dmk, just as Thai Airways abandoned it due to rising costs. There is no reason to keep it open. Let alone spend a lot of money refurbishing it. Bkk can easily handle the volume.

I used to fly Nok domestically, not anymore, I look for options, and connecting flights, at Dmk I usually have just one options, and that is to taxi to Bkk, I therefore choose an airline which doesn't require me tot taxi in between flights. Dmk has two airlines, Bkk the rest, no rockect science indeed !

There are laws and procedures that control what a government can do, in addition there are elections to determine which parties can form the next government. Works pretty well the world over.

They work pretty well everywhere else, just not here. Hence we need the Army and coups.
They work equally well in Thailand. That a party that you don't support has won all general elections since 2000 does not mean that those elections don't work

While we are applaud your naivete about Thai politics, the fact remains no one really cares about the unwashed masses. How many 'overwhelmingly elected governments' have been toppled in a coup here? And in the case of this present government, if it happens, they deserve it!

Oh and this is Thaivisa, are you ignorant or pretending to be ignorant by expecting 'useful information'? People here post opinions, not information.

Hear hear the farang experts making their opinions known from their distant couches.

Who gives a dam_n about your political opinion at a time like this?   One clown even looking forward to the next coup.  Like it or not, this government was overwhelmingly elected at the polls by the Thai people so... Get a life.  The only reason I even read your rants is in the hope I might read some useful information that will inform me about when I can return to work  ... or not.

Unwashed masses ? Coups are a sure way of making sure the masses don't count. It also seems to be a sure way to undermine democracy and deprive people of their right to exercise their constitutional right to vote. This time around any coup would most certainly not be bloodless.

Of course I prefer democracy above a junta rule. This government should make sure the role of the military in Thai politics are over once and for all, the Military should exist for serving the country and it's people, not ruling it.

And shouldn't the government exist also to serve the country and it's people, not ruling it?

Coups are always distasteful but when the ruling government is corrupt and ineffectual and yet still manage to stay in power, then there should always be someone out there to check them,

@moruya that a general election was scheduled is an undeniable fact. That the army stepped in because there wasn't is nonsense, unless of course the army wasn't aware ! The lies from both sides of the devide continue to be entertaining, your lie included.
