Nok Air (DD, Bangkok Don Mueang) will launch daily service from Bangkok's Don Mueang airport to Ranong from May 1. The service will initially be operated by Nok Air's partner Siam General Aviation (Bangkok Suvarnabhumi) that operates regional services with Saab 340Bs under the Nok Mini brand. Nok then plans to upgrade the route to its own larger ATR72s from October 1. Ranong is located in Southern Thailand on the Northern Andaman Coast close to Thailand's border with Myanmar.
