Bus to Pattaya

[Terek]

Maybe someone knows, what is the situation with bus from Ekamai to Pattaya now? How often does it go and what are conditions at this stage?

[champers]

Got one last week, just rocked up and bought tickets, had to wait 20 minutes for the next bus, at 1pm. Bus was pretty full, no distancing, you must wear a mask. 109 Baht pp.

Make sure you go to the first window on the right side going in marked "Pattaya"

Van touts will try to snag you.  

As Champers said above, pretty much back to normal.  Two weeks ago they were leaving vacant seats...it was nice.

Hourly, on the hour, from 6:00am and 119 baht per person - used it on Monday.  No distancing, no enforcement for wearing of masks.

I just traveled by Roong Reuang from Morchid 2 to Pattaya. Business as usual.
The driver, who was driving for Bell Travel before, recognized me, took of his mask, and reported that Bell Travel is bankrupted and laid off all of their staff.

Just reporting and I have no idea, if this is true or not.

They were working from the chairs at the airport not even the booth for the last couple of years and the passengers hardly reached double figures,the consolidated the buses to the airport 22 march and it was still only one third full.

I can confirm that the Sai Tai Mai - Pattaya bus was not running on July 5, two weeks ago. I'm not sure about the current situation.
