Surin Airport — Surin, Thailand

Surin Airport, coded PXR, serves the city of Surin in northeastern Thailand's Isan region, an area renowned for its annual Elephant Round-up festival celebrating the region's long tradition of elephant training and Kui ethnic culture. PXR provides domestic connections, primarily to Bangkok, supporting both tourism tied to the elephant festival and the broader agricultural economy of this rice-farming region near the Cambodian border. Surin itself is also known for silk weaving traditions passed down through local communities. PXR remains a relatively small, regional airport whose traffic patterns often reflect seasonal tourism spikes around the province's cultural festivals.
