I was just wondering, are there any news of DVA operating in the new Suvarnabhumi Airport (VTBS) instead of the old airport (VTBD). Personally, I enjoy flying to VTBS more smile

Our schedule is based on the real world Delta schedule, its updated on a daily basis at 03:00 EST If Delta (or one of Delta's codeshares) has a flight going to VTBS it will be updated, but not until the real world schedule gets updated with the new airport. Hope that helps

I know that all the airlines who served from/to the VTBD (the old one), moved into the new one (VTBS Suvarnabhumi Airport) except for some airlines like Bangkok Airways, so Korean Air flies from ICN (Seoul-Incheon) to BKK (VTBS Suvarnabhumi Airport) because BKK is the Suvarnabhumi Airport now, Hope this helps.

There was news recently that ALL airlines flights operate at VTBS now, and the VTBD was only used for private flights. Furthermore, the Korean Air and Air France flights had been transfered to VTBS like 3 years ago.
