History

Phrae Airport was built during World War 2 with a gravel runway. After the war ended, the airport operator was given to Royal Thai Air Force for them to maintain. Then, Phrae Airport was developed by Department of Commercial Aviation (Thailand) in 1952 for passenger and airmail uses by upgrading the runway to be 30 x 1,200 meters and building a terminal.

In 1971 - 1973 Department of Civil Aviation (Thailand) upgraded the runway, taxiway, and tarmac's material to be asphalt concrete, and extending the runway again to be 1,500 meters long. In 1974 - 1975, the current terminal was built, and was expanded in 1981 - 1982 to 250 square meters. The terminal was expanded again in 1990 to 432 square meters, and installed air conditioners. Then, a new 7-floor air traffic control tower was built to separate it from the terminal in 1996.[4]
