Popular Post couchpotato Posted November 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2022 Only one airline---So go to "Bangkok Airways" website and book your flight for your required date. Airport is in Sattahip/Utapao, about 45 minutes from Pattaya. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 When we lived in Samui, we used to use Air Asia out of Surat. It did swallow alot of hours. But, it was kind of fun to deny BA those tickets, which are very over priced. Sometimes we got super deals as low as 200 baht to Bkk and same with the return trip. Fortunately, Surat Airport is not a worthless airport like Hua Hin, which barely ever sees an airplane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maha Sarakham Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 There is a new Seahorse Cruise route that connects Pattaya directly with Koh Samui for 2500 THB and up depending on what kind of seat/room you want. Sleep on the ferry overnight and you'll wake up in beautiful Samui. www.spcruise.com, if you book directly through their Facebook page you can get set up with a trip over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchis Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) Just now, parafareno said: so i should search for air asia from pattaya to surat and then ferry to koh samui?

KhunBENQ Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 9 hours ago, parafareno said: Do you have to book airline ticket in advance Highly recommended. Their best fares seem well booked. And best fares means at least 6000 Baht for return flight. Easy to go over 10000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a shortlived thing sometime before Covid and tickets were as overpriced as with PG. If I counted correct it's 17 arrivals with PG from different routes today. Quite busy.

All other airlines have stopped flying to Samui since Covid. 23 flights so far to Samui today.

CanadaSam Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 (edited) I would never fly out of UTP/Pattaya airport! Fares are about triple or more compared from Bangkok airports! Considering that Bangkok is only 1.5 hours away on a comfortable airconditioned bus for only 150 baht or so, it's a no brainer to always fly out of one of the two Bangkok airports!
