About Ban Huoeisay Airport
Ban Huoeisay Airport is a small domestic airport serving Houayxay, the capital of Bokeo Province in northern Laos. It is located about 3 km southeast of the town, close to the Mekong River and the border with Thailand.
The airport provides a convenient air link for this remote northern province, with domestic services connecting Houayxay to Vientiane. Its infrastructure is compact: a single passenger terminal and one asphalt runway handle the airport's limited operations.
Because the airport sits only a short drive from the town centre, onward travel is straightforward. Taxis and private transfers connect passengers to Houayxay's hotels and riverfront, while the Fourth Thai–Lao Friendship Bridge links the area with Chiang Khong in Thailand, supporting further journeys into the region.
As a small airport, Ban Huoeisay offers basic passenger facilities rather than extensive shopping and dining. It works well as a practical gateway for travellers heading to Bokeo Province attractions, Mekong River boat journeys, or the nearby Thai border.
