Airports of Thailand Plc is planning to call for tenders for six redevelopment projects at Don Mueang airport totalling more than 32 million baht.
The announcement had sparked interest from several private firms, Transport Minister Sohpon Zarum said yesterday.
AoT is preparing legal documents,project details and investment and returns forecasts prior to calling for tenders for the outsourcing contracts, Mr Sohpon said.
The successful firms will be announced within the month.
The six projects are: the renovation of Don Mueang's private jet and air taxi terminal; the provision of landing gear maintenance for 150-seat aircraft; the management of a regional aviation spare parts service; the operation of maintenance and repair services for small and medium-sized aircraft; the development of an international free trade zone; and the establishment of an airline pilot flight simulator training centre.
AoT is seeking permission from the Customs Department to turn part of the airport into a customs- and tax-free zone to provide a free trade area.
AoT president Serirat Prasutanond said five of the projects - excluding the flight simulator training centre which is being budgeted - would cost 32.3 million baht to outsource.
