Bangkok’s Airport ‘Creaks Back to Life’
Travel Blog • Valerie Conners • 12.03.08 | 10:19 AM ET
The international airport here has slowly started the process of reopening, after anti-government protesters who had camped there for a week called off their demonstration following a court’s decision to ban the prime minister from politics and dissolve the governing party. Flights have begun to arrive at the airport, though authorities still estimate it will take days before some 230,000 stranded visitors will be able to leave the country.

Does anyone have any sense if this is just the beginning of civil unrest? We are planning a trip to Asia in the spring and Bangkok is our first stop.
