The airline is sourcing new aircraft that it believes could be delivered in January next year.
In its winter schedule, Nok Mini will continue with its Chiang Mai-Pai service increasing frequency from two to three daily, while maintaining its daily Chiang Mai-Nan service.
From the beginning of August, Nok Air has assisted Nok Mini byoperating two routes — Chiang Mai-Udon Thani, daily and Chiang Mai-Mae Hong Son, twice daily.
