Sakon Nakhon Airport

Sakon Nakhon Airport is a regional domestic airport located in Sakon Nakhon province that accommodates both military and civil flights. It is currently served by two low-cost carriers, namely Nok Air and Thai AirAsia. Both airlines fly 28 times from the airport to Bangkok via Don Muang International Airport.

Sakon Nakhon Airport is operated by the government of Thailand through the Department of Airports (DOA).

In 2018, the Airports of Thailand (AOT) - operator of Thailand’s six international airports - set aside 228 billion baht last year, a portion of which will be used for the creation of two new flight hubs and the expansion of four existing airports operated by the DOA. Sakon Nakhon Airport will be one of the airports to receive funding for development and be transferred to the AOT management.
