BKK to UTP is just 72 miles, so basically he was circling over UTP at a low altitude for 1,5 hours, before landing eventually.
By the way I can't google anything regarding this flight number, nor I can see Thai Smile selling any tickets on BKK-UTP route (pretty much useless anyway, as the airport is at least 40 minutes away from Pattaya, and the bus from BKK airport takes ~2 hours)
Tech problem? Or possibly they're testing something in the airport, maybe some new approach/landing equipment? (UTP gets more and more busy in the last couple of years, I always felt pity why such a large airport near the primary holiday destination of Thailand sat nearly empty for years - even their Philippine cousin at CRK was performing much better)
