The terminal is designed for three million passengers, a number that has already been exceeded, and expansion will push its capacity to over 8 million.
In 2018, the airport was allocated 6. 6 billion baht to build a third terminal, renovate the existing two terminals and car park, and expand aircraft parking bays and associated electrical power infrastructure. In 2019, the Department of Airports announced a project to double the airport's capacity to eight million passengers per year. The airport will no longer be expanded after its final phase of expansion due to lack of space and the city's expansion, and will not be able to cope with the future traffic.
