I don't often post from other sources, but we had a thread on getting to Don Mueang and Air Asia moving there.
Looks like their problems aren't over yet.
"Korean carrier cites facility shortcomings
Contrary to what Thai authorities claim, Don Mueang airport appears not yet ready to resume international flights, as the South Korean budget carrier TтАЩway Airlines says the problems it encountered has prompted it to halt service there.
TтАЩway, which said it was bombarded by тАЬuncountableтАЭ complaints from Thai and foreign passengers alike, blasted Airports of Thailand Plc (AoT) and Thai officials related to airport operations for failing to provide sufficient service and facilities to support international flights through BangkokтАЩs old airport.
In a formal complaint submitted earlier this week to agencies including the Civil Aviation, Immigration and Customs departments, TтАЩway regional manager Choi Byung-moon listed seven major deficiencies at the airport, which AoT earlier vowed would be ready by Aug 1."
I don't want to copy the whole article (I don't think I can for copyright reasons - but you can find it here - http://en.isnhotnews.com/?p=21725

(PS Is this a "dump on Don Muang" thread? hmmmm" I just mourn for the passing (for me) of Air Asia into the land of the unreachable)
