Lanna International Airport (also known as Chiang Mai Airport 2) is a proposed airport in Lamphun Ban Thi, Chiang Mai, Thailand, approximately 25km from Chiang Mai Airport. It is currently at its feasibility stage, and is expected to begin construction by 2027 and open by 2032.

Development

Construction of Lanna International Airport is to begin by 2027 and to open by 2032 according to Airports of Thailand (AoT). The airport is expected to serve 20,000,000 passengers annually, serve 41 flights per hour, accommodate 38 aircraft parking bays and handle 32,000 tons of cargo annually.

Context

Leading up to September 30 2017, Chiang Mai Airport has handled 9.97 million passengers, an 8.3% increase compared to 2016. This has surpassed its annual capacity of 8 million passengers. Chiang Mai Airport is also operating at it’s full capacity, handling about 15 flights per hour, with plans to increase to 30 flights per hour after the expansion.

Proposals

From January to early February 2018, AoT board of directors chaired by Prasong Poontaneat identified and inspected two potential locations for a second airport. The locations are in the Lamphun province and the Saraphi district, which are both owned by the government. It was estimated that 5,000-6,000 rai are needed for the developments. By May, the Airports of Thailand’s board approved plans to develop a two new airports at Chiang Mai and Phuket, requiring a cost of 120 billion baht (3.7 billion USD). The construction was to begin in 2019 and complete by 2025. However, these plans went quiet and were not pursued due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Revitalized Plan

On September 2023, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin announced and confirmed the construction of the second airport, aimed to ease capacity constraints at the existing Chiang Mai Airport and to increase tourism in the region. The Pheu Thai Party also supports the construction of the airport. During a meeting with local business executives in Chiang Mai University, they recommended naming the new airport “Lanna International Airport” to honor the Lanna Kingdom which significantly played in the area’s history.

In January 2024, Thailand's Prime Minister visited Chiang Mai to hear a progress report on the airport. By May, AoT President Kirati Kitmanawa announced that the feasibility study of the airport is to be completed by the end of 2024. The feasibility study covers the economic and financial potential, and also the environmental impact of the airport. On January 11, 2024, at the 41st Air Wing Meeting Room in Chiang Mai Province, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin chaired a meeting to chdck the progress of various projects aimed at transportation, and also addressing environmental issues in the region. The meeting focused on plans to connect Chiang Mai’s transportation network, including the construction of Lanna International Airport (Chiang Mai No. 2), the Electric Red Train (EV) project, and the development of Ring Road 3 spanning over 52 kilometers. These initiatives are projected to improve regional connectivity, and to relieve traffic congestion. Attendees included the Minister of Transport, Deputy Minister Surapong Piyachoti, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Transport, and other relevant officials.

Land

40% of the land is already owned by the government, which saves the government 2.5 billion baht in expropriation costs. The Treasury Department would be responsible for expropriating land for the construction in 2027. The airport occupies 6,500 rai of land with a cost of 72 billion baht, with most of the land belonging to private owners.
