Travel advice

[Wongkitlo]

Hi. I posted last week and appreciated everyone's help. I am in Patong and want to get out either to the bus depot or airport. I was hoping someone could suggest a budget way to get to these places. I heard a songtaew goes along the beach and then goes to the bus depot.

Yes, but in patong most of the time it is a big bus.

Thanks. Where does that go from?

 Starts at the south end of Patong beach road near the small roundabout. Runs along the beach road and stops by request. Not a bahtbus. It's a full size bus, some enclosed. Some open side.

Not sure if there is any demand right now. Doubt can get Patong to Airport.

best is take the local songthaew from beach road in Patong to the central marketin Phuket town, walk 2 minutes to the thai airlines office and take the airport bus
