Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited (AOT) (Thai: บริษัท ท่าอากาศยานไทย จำกัด (มหาชน)) is a Thai public company. It manages Thailand's six international airports.

AOT was established on 20 September 2002, as a result of the privatisation of the state-owned Airports Authority of Thailand (AAT). At that time, the company was worth 14,285,700,000 baht. The Thai government held, and still holds, 70 percent of the company's stock. During fiscal year 2014 AOT's average daily market capitalization was 282,321 million baht.

AOT's fiscal year (FY) runs from 1 October–30 September, thus AOT's FY2015 was from 1 October 2014–30 September 2015.

In English, the long-form of the company's name is "Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited", but its short-form logo is "Airports of Thailand PLC".

AOT operates the following airports in Thailand: The statistics are shown for calendar years.

Thailand's six AOT airports saw growth in passenger traffic of 21.3 percent in 2015, setting a new record of just under 110 million passengers. Aircraft movements—take-offs and landings—grew in tandem by 16.6 percent from the previous year to 727,750. The growth is expected to continue through 2016 with AOT projecting an 11 percent increase in combined passenger throughput. Air freight moved through the airports remained largely stagnant in 2015, with a marginal 0.63 percent increase to 1.38 million tonnes, reflecting sluggish global trade.
