What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Ban Thi Airport (VTCM) in Ban Thi, TH, appears to function primarily as a private airpark for general aviation and is home to the Lanna Flying Club, rather than a commercial airport handling regular passenger traffic. Consequently, there are no recent traveler reviews or experiences available concerning commercial passenger services, terminal facilities, security wait times, or customs/immigration, as these are not applicable to its current operational nature. Discussions about a proposed second Chiang Mai Airport in the Ban Thi area have occurred, but this project has not materialized as a commercial hub, with recent information indicating a low probability of its development in the near future, particularly given ongoing expansions at Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX).

What Travelers Love
  • General Aviation and Flying Club: The facility caters to private pilots and aviation enthusiasts as an airpark where individuals can house their aircraft.
  • Lanna Flying Club Activities: It serves as a base for Northern Aviation Services (Lanna Flying Club), welcoming local and foreign pilots.
Common Complaints
  • Lack of Commercial Passenger Services: As it is not a commercial airport, typical traveler complaints regarding terminal facilities, cleanliness, security, or customs are not applicable.
  • Obstructions near Runway: The approach path for landing from the East (Runway 27) has been noted to have obstructions, and the threshold for landing from the West (Runway 09) is displaced due to nearby houses. Pilots are advised to use only a pattern in the north of the airfield for landing and takeoff.

Ban Thi Airport (VTCM) is suited for private aviation and flying club activities, not for commercial passenger travel. Travelers seeking information for commercial flights should consult details for major regional airports like Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX).
