Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) has scheduled the installation of a new Automatic Channel for passport screening system and equipment to replace the existing model. Some of the conventional passport control counters with immigration officers on duty will also be changed to automatic channels in order to increase the flexibility and speed of BKK’s passport checking service. The first phase of the installation operations will take place at the international departure passport control area Zone 2 on the west side of the 4th floor of the Passenger Terminal Building, resulting in the closure of some areas from May 15 to June 4.
BKK apologizes for any inconvenience caused during this time and requests passengers departing on international flights to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before the their scheduled departure time. For more information, please call the AOT Contact Center at 1722, available 24 hours a day. (PRD)
