Regional airline Thai Smile will suspend its flights between the Macau International Airport (MIA) and the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok starting in September, due to commercial reasons.
The budget airline began flights between Bangkok and Macau in 2012 and as of 2014, operated two daily flights.
By March 2015, the airline had reduced its service to a single flight per day, and announced shortly afterwards that it was considering the suspension of the route, due to an insufficient number of passengers.
Flights will officially cease from September 1,
according to Thai Smile’s website.
Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok is currently the airline’s only Macau route, raising the possibility that it will stop its MIA operations altogether.

The launch of the “CTM Youth Development Program” was held on Friday at the FAOM Center on Campos Street.
The program, now in its third year, aims to encourage young people to utilize their summer vacation time to undergo a series of training activities and foster personal development.
Upon completion of an interview, 20 candidates have been chosen to participate in the program, which is running from June 17 to July 21.
They will have the chance to participate in a series of activities comprising work experience in CTM, volunteer activities and visits to various sites, such as the Macau International Airport and the Transport Bureau.
Fiona Chou, general manager of corporate communications of CTM, said at the launch ceremony that she hopes all participants will apply the program’s teachings to their lives, in order to contribute to the social development of the city.
