The station opened in July 1989 as part of the Eastern Line Chachoengsao Junction–Sattahip Port section. In the past, freight trains continued further down the line to Sattahip's Juk Samet Port. In 2002–2003, some services continued down the line to Jamboree Station, built specially for the 20th World Scout Jamboree held in Sattahip. However, services (both freight and passenger) beyond Ban Phlu Ta Luang have now ceased operations. A new station built for U-Tapao International Airport is currently under construction and once open, will be the new terminus of the line.^{[citation needed]}
