Suvarnabhumi Airport lacks a safety certificate

A fact I’m glad I didn’t know before I arrived in Thailand. Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport (ท่าอากาศยานนานาชาติกรุงเทพ-สุวรรณภูม) doesn’t have a Department of Civil Aviation airport safety certificate. Suvarnabhumi continues to operate because the requirement has yet to be adopted into Thai law.

    So you’re strapping on wings and taking off from the nearest hill to get home then? ;-)

    @Cassie ST: Well, true, I have no alternative. Still, a few issues with the tarmac is a hell of a lot better than a 3m section of the wing falling off and still remaining unclaimed.
