Great videos from this channel. If possible, I'd suggest that you start your flight a little further north from the overpass near Palm Hills. From there, viewers will be able to see the end of the airport's runway and get updates of its expansion progress.
Unfortunately I can't do a drone flight there due to the absolute exclusion zone around the airport. The drone literally refuses to fly into that zone. We could try to do a ground-level hand-held video at some point of that area.
Great video. Thanks a lot! As someone who uses the back road from Soi 88 to Soi 102 most days, I'm very much interested in the road progress. Any idea where I can get info about the plans and likely date of completion? Is the new road going to follow the rail line to Khao Tao as well?
I haven't been able to find any official source for dates of completion, but I have my fingers crossed for July. From what I can see in the flights I believe the new road will stop just before the flyover.
@@geoffwales8646 Ah sorry, I meant the new train line and station will be operational by mid-2023. I suspect the road will be opened section by section as it is completed and I don't see the first segment working until 2024.
Wow you’re moving to Barcelona what’s the completion date for this train service from to the city ? Is it a double train track all the way? How fast will the trains go? I’ll be there this time next year.
Looking forward to travelling on the new line . I hear the whole country is in some sort of rail update up to the north down to where you are, and also I hear eventually to Pattaya . This is great that the government are investing in this infrastructure it will make life for the tourist so much easier to travel
Thank you for yr video, I love it!
Looks like the Hua Hin haze is strong. Exactly why I had to leave Thailand, continual air pollution. Thanks for the update Mike
I don't think it's pollution, just a cloudy day.
@Chris Smith Chris, yes I am seeing reports of high PM2.5 in the Hua Hin area now.
Sorry that you’re leaving Hua Hin. Enjoy Barcelona!
Thanks!
Mike's! How you doing?, superb done,have a good one-🤓

@@MikesTropicalTech I suspect that too. I guess it will link up with Petchkhasem Road somehow. I can't imagine it being finished this year, tbh.

No official completion date but I'm hoping mid-2023. Yes fully double-track. Trains may be same speed as now or a little faster.

Any idea of when the first train will roll in to Hua Hin from Bangkok?
Nothing official but I'm hoping for mid-2023.
