luckyblock token Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I need to travel to Korat from Mo Chit bus station. are there any bus companies after 8pm running? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 (edited) You could check NCA (Nakorn Chai Air) Their call center number is: 1624 Edit: Website is https://www.nakhonchaiair.com/view/ The website is a bit strange as Korat is not listed but only the End Points. But as Korat Bus Station is a Major one, on their onwards routes they most certainly stop there. Edited December 8, 2022 by MJCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norfolkandchance Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Try Nakornchai 21. Modern buses with Wi-Fi. Booth 65 I think at Mo Chit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin71 Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Maybe helpful maybe not, but I know there is a 24 hr service from the smaller bus station in Korat to Mor Chit ... So I imagine it would be the same Mor Chit to Korat 24 hr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it before covid and I am wondering whether this bus station stil exists and whether they still have buses to Bangkok 24 hours. If yes: buses or vans?

I often got on a NCA BUS. and got on at Buriram when the bus came from Ubon and was going to Rayong. And the OP goes from Morchit (the starting point) and wants to go to Korat, so I mentioned that the bus to Khon Kaen (from Morchit) probably goes via Korat where he (the OP) can get off.

Martin71 Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Used Korat small bus station to Mor Chit couple of months ago... big busses.. just got a load of new ones... never more than about 12 people on them (room for about 30-40). At least 2 companies doing this route.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bus companies are not allowed to do random stops en route. The stops have to be scheduled in advance, and they don't schedule many stops. They actually mostly follow these rules. The result are fast point-to-point routes, without stops at every palm tree. For example, Sombat Tour to Surin runs from Vibhadhavee all the way to Surin province without stopping in any town. Buses to and from Ubon usually do have scheduled stops, I guess otherwise it would be too far. Buses to Khonkaen usually (eg Chantours) use the Korat bypass, they don't enter Korat. When buying a ticket one can ask whether this bus stops at Korat. 20 years ago, every bus to Khonkaen would stop at Korat - no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood that is why in post #2 and #5 I mentioned to call the NCA call centre (1624) and ask, they will definitely know on which Route their Bus will stop in Korat (for sure) I just thought that an alternative for the OP could be take a Train from Don Muang Aiport (maybe there is a station closer to Morchit but that I don't know) and go by train to Korat. https://www.railway.co.th/Station/StationList I just checked and they have a train (times are for leaving the main station time so add another 20-30mins for Don Muang station) Leave 20:30 Arrive 01:36 Leave 21:30 arrive 02:36 Leave 22:45 arrive 4:19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
