Mr. Niti Kongkrut from the Pattaya office of the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) said in a press statement that the new airport should give the Pattaya’s tourist industry the boost it needs to allow it to regain its position as one of Thailand’s most prominent locations.

Pattaya’s modern airport is located conveniently close to the airport.
