Business Aviation Destination Guide: Koh Samui, Thailand

General News

Summary

It’s a popular tourist destination, receiving more than two million foreign visitors annually, with that number expected to grow as the island continues to make airport and infrastructure enhancements. Despite the island’s popularity, operating there on a business aircraft was historically challenging due to a four-night max parking limitation at Koh Samui Airport (VTSM). Koh Samui is serviced by more 5-star hotels and resorts than Phuket, in addition to many private luxury villas. PGGS (Bangkok Airways Ground Services) coordinates with VTSM airport for slot and landing permits. Recent changes in service levels and the elimination of the parking restriction have raised the island’s profile, and it is seeing a resulting surge in popularity among business aviation operators.
