The expansion of the Krabi Airport is expected to complete in March according to officials from the facility.

Parking bays are the current remaining work to be finalized on site.

A doubling of capacity to 4.38 million passengers will be the result, though in 2011 the airport only achieved about 20% traffic efficency, which points to a dramatic underutilization.

Unlike Phuket International Airport (PIA) which is run by the much larger and commercially minded Airports of Thailand (Aot), Krabi falls under the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA).
