Phuket has a newish small airport called Phuket Airpark intended for recreational & in the future business flights. Also it includes a flight-school with ultralight planes. The intention is to make Phuket Airpark an American style village like some areas in Summerland Key, Florida, whereby everyone can park his private plane under his/her house.

Most apartments will have an man-made created seafront view. An apartment may go for about 2.14 million THB.

To just fly or have a first flying lessons, you don't need to invest anything except a fixed fee. Depending on your skills, the lesson includes steering on the ground, take-off, various manoeuvres in the sky, like circle downwards, upwards & landing. The price for one lesson or one flight is about 7,500 THB & takes about one hour.
