Buri Ram Airport

Buri Ram Airport, coded BFV, serves Buriram, a province in Thailand's northeastern Isan region. Buriram's airport climbs to 590 feet in elevation, and its single runway supports domestic connections to Bangkok and other Thai cities. Isan represents Thailand's largest and most agricultural region, historically less connected to international tourism than Bangkok or the southern beach resorts, though improved transport links including this airport have gradually opened the area to more visitors. Buriram itself sits near the Cambodian border and is known within Thailand for Khmer-era historical sites scattered across the province. BFV gives the area a direct air connection that avoids what would otherwise be a lengthy overland trip from the capital, supporting both business travel and a growing stream of domestic tourism to the region.
