Suvarnabhumi International Airport is one of two international airports serving Bangkok, Thailand and is the hub airport for Thai VietJet Air. The airport opened for all commercial domestic and international flights in 2006 and was created to take over as the main international hub for Bangkok. This allowed the cities previous international hub, Don Meuang International Airport, to put more of a focus on facilitating flights from low-cost regional airlines.
Despite being a low-cost airline, Thai VietJet Air has used Suvarnabhumi International Airport instead of Don Mueang as its hub since it was founded in 2005. It is one of six airlines that use Suvarnabhumi Airport as a hub, with the other five being Bangkok Airways, Jet Asia Airways, Orient Thai Airlines, Thai Airways, Asia Atlantic Airlines and Thai Smile.
Thai VietJet Air's fleet consists of entirely Airbus aircraft. The airline has a mix of Airbus A320-200 and Airbus A321-200 aircraft. Overall, it has 10 aircraft within its fleet.
