Premium Seaplanes in Phuket

Siam Seaplane Revolutionizes Thailand’s Travel Landscape with Unmatched Convenience and Luxury Through Premium Seaplane Services

Siam Seaplane is set to revolutionize Thailand’s tourism industry by introducing seaplanes, with the first water landing and take-off sites in Phuket. This development offers travelers a convenient and scenic mode of transport, saving time while providing a unique perspective of Thailand's stunning landscapes. By making remote areas more accessible, it aims to unlock the full potential of the country’s tourism industry, promoting sustainable tourism development.

Phuket, one of Thailand's southern provinces, is the largest island in the country and is located in the Andaman Sea. The region boasts beautiful smaller islands and beaches, such as Racha Island, Ko He, and Coconut Island. Due to its unique landscape, Phuket has become a premier destination for tourists worldwide. Recognizing this, Siam Seaplane sees many opportunities to enhance Thailand’s tourism potential, focusing first on Phuket as the initial base for seaplane operations.

From Phuket, seaplane flights will be available to destinations such as Koh Phi Phi, Koh Yao Noi, Phang-Nga, and Koh Lipe. At the same time, the company will operate from Bangkok to serve destinations across the Gulf of Thailand, such as Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Prachuap Khiri Khan, Jomtien, and Koh Chang. This seaplane service promises to set a new world-class standard with its blend of convenience, timesaving, scenic routes, luxury, comfort, flexibility, environmental benefits, safety, accessibility, and unforgettable experiences. Travelers can anticipate a premium service that stands out in the region and beyond.

Moreover, water landings and take-offs have received support from the Ministry of Transport, which includes various authorities such as the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand and AEROTHAI (Aeronautical Radio of Thailand Ltd.), the Marine Department, and related government agencies. According to Ms. Worakanya Siripidej, CEO of Siam Seaplane, “It’s incredible to witness so many authorities coming together to drive such a meaningful change for Thailand; we are both grateful and excited to lead this initiative. The seaplane service will benefit the local Phuket economy by generating new job opportunities, boosting tourist arrivals and revenue, and supporting sustainable tourism development. On a broader scale, premium seaplane services will elevate the Thai tourism industry by attracting high-spending guests, enhancing the country's reputation as a luxury destination, and providing faster, more efficient travel to previously hard-to-reach locations.”

The project has also received support from local partners including Amanpuri, Àni Private Resort, InterContinental, Kata Rocks, and The Naka Island and Trisara Resort. Bjorn Courage, representing InterContinental Phuket and the Phuket Hotel Association, stated, “The sky will brighten up with Siam Seaplane operation and create a whole new dimension of Thai Tourism by unlocking conveniently every corner of the nation; the sky truly is the limit.” Mr. Richard Pope, CEO of Infinite Luxury and Kata Rocks, expressed his support for the seaplane project, emphasizing its potential to invigorate tourism in Phuket.

Additionally, Siam Seaplane works with hotel partners and destination management companies (DMCs), and travel agents, like Asian Trails, offering seamless operational travel standards throughout Thailand and Asia. With a portfolio of products, including wholesale and tailor-made leisure arrangements, meeting and conference organization, team building events, incentive travel, airport transfers, secure online hotel bookings, and a range of tour packages that include cultural, historical, social, and adventure-based programs.

Currently, Siam Seaplane is working with various authorities to establish water landing destinations for seaplanes in Phuket and other destinations across Thailand. The company also has a sister brand, Siam Scenic, which offers bespoke luxury charter and sightseeing flights, providing travelers with the thrill of flying in style and comfort at a lower cost than private jets. With unmatched flexibility, Siam Scenic can reach almost any airport in Thailand, including private airfields inaccessible to commercial airlines.
