Somchai Sawasdeepon, acting president of Airports of Thailand - which operates the airport, said that the number of passengers on Dec 27 totalled 149,000, including 26,000 locals.
"We witness an increase in the number of the foreign passengers this year," he said.
To cope with higher traffic, all airport officers are on duty, not allowed to take vacation. For security reason, more check points are in place among other measures.
