Kamphaeng Saen Airport (KDT/VTBK) is a medium-sized airfield in Nakhon Pathom Province, roughly 70–80 km west of Bangkok. It primarily supports military, training, and general aviation operations rather than scheduled commercial service. The airport is linked with the Royal Thai Air Force and the nearby Kasetsart University Kamphaeng Saen campus.
💡 Local Tip
Don’t treat KDT like a normal commercial airport: there are few on-site services, so bring water, snacks, and any needed documents, and arrange your return transport before you arrive. If you’re visiting Kasetsart University’s Kamphaeng Saen campus, its canteens and shops are a useful nearby stop.
🚖 Getting There
There is no regular public airport bus or commercial terminal at Kamphaeng Saen, so plan on a private car, taxi, or ride-hailing app from Bangkok or Nakhon Pathom. Allow extra time during Bangkok rush hours, and confirm access with the airport/operator in advance if you are visiting for a specific event or training course. From Nakhon Pathom city, the airport is a short drive north via local roads.
