Suvarnabhumi International Airport will remain closed to passenger flights until at least Dec 15 due to the disruption caused by anti-government protesters.

Airports Authority of Thailand's acting director Serirat Prasutanont said that the country's main airport has lost more Bt350 million due to the closure of the protesters.

But the airport allowed the cargo flights to land on Tuesday, the first flights were expected to arrive later the day.

People's Alliance for Democracy has led anti-government protesters to seize the airport since last week.

The extension of the suspension for passenger flights is made although AOT and PAD met on Tuesday and agreed that the airport will resume its service as soon as technical officials examined functional and operational system,.

Will make my travel reservations just as soon as I see them moving out. Hopefully will see that start happening in about 5 hours or so.
