CP Group has not yet confirmed a proposal to extend Airport Link train operations by 4 months beyond the September 30 MOU expiration, with government aiming to hand over to State Railway subsidiary by January 31, 2027. Deputy PM Pipat assures the public service will continue without interruption, but the transition depends on private-sector cooperation and PM approval. Currently, only 4 of 9 trains are operational due to wheel wear maintenance, with full fleet recovery expected within days—a manageable logistics challenge distinct from the contract dispute.
