Early bird choices to Phuket, Chiang Mai

By The Nation

 

 

AirAsia gets geared up for the high season by adding early morning flights from Don Mueang International Airport to Phuket and Chiang Mai with fares starting at just Bt390 per trip.

 

The Phuket addition will depart at 3.35am while the Chiang Mai flight will leave at 5.10am daily. The operation will start on October 29. 

 

Santisuk Klongchaiya, director of commercial for Thai AirAsia, says that with demand on popular routes continuing to grow, AirAsia has decided to offer early-risers the chance to y to avoid traffic and congestion at the airport while still enjoying AirAsia’s low fares. The addition of these early morning flights bring the number of journeys from Don Mueang to Chiang Mai to 13 flights a day and Don Mueang to Phuket to 18. The airline is planning to add frequency to other routes in the future.

 

“We guarantee that our added early morning flights will still be just as well-priced compared to the average for seats on any other flight as we are adding them to offer new travel opportunities and to open a new market that includes connecting travellers, tourists and business travellers looking to make day trips,” he said.

 

The new flights come with a promotional all-in fare and are available for booking from now for travel from the start of the early morning flights on October 29. Find more information or book the seat at www.AirAsia.com.

Early morning my arse. Where I come from these are called RED EYE flights. The bars are not even open at these hours.

But you can go from the Bangkok bar straight to the airport

I looked at these a few days ago (as already shown on AA flight sched) cheaper than VIP bus HKT - BKK, return. Lady friend travelling to see son in BKK, now flying with AA instead of 12hr bus journey... Good value

So because you call them differently these are not early morning flights.

 

In my book 03.35 and 05.10 are early morning.
