Bangkok’s Don Muang airport has suspended all flights after flood waters entered its northern perimeter.
The airport, mainly used for domestic flights, is in the north of the city where the flooding has been worse.
Bangkok’s international airport, Suvarnabhumi, is in another part of the city and remains open.
But Thai Airways International is considering reducing flights from Suvarnabhumi due to a shortage of staff.
It says many have houses in the Don Muang district and their living and travel conditions have become too difficult.
He said the airline also expects the number of foreign visitors might drop because of the city’s problems.
