Gateway to Thailand's deep southern Pattani province.

Location

Pattani, Thailand

Pattani Airport (IATA: PAN, ICAO: VTSK) is a small domestic airport serving Pattani, a province in the far south of Thailand near the Malaysian border. It is operated by the Airports of Thailand (AOT) network and provides limited scheduled air connectivity for the region. The airport serves a predominantly Muslim region and has historically experienced reduced air traffic due to ongoing security concerns in Thailand's southern border provinces. Flight operations have been intermittent, with services suspended and resumed at various points depending on demand and security conditions. Due to its modest size and infrastructure, Pattani Airport handles light passenger volumes and operates with basic facilities. It plays a strategic role in connecting the region to Bangkok and other Thai cities, reducing reliance on lengthy overland travel.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building with basic passenger handling facilities.

Getting to & from

Ground transport to Pattani city center is primarily by taxi or songthaew (shared minibus), with no dedicated rail or bus rapid transit link.
