Just to get you started with your research: go into airasia.com, check out flights from Phuket to Bangkok and flights from Bangkok to Udon Thani, which is close to Nongkai almost across the river from Vientane. Depending upon with how many people you intend to travel, it might very well be cheaper than driving all the way. Have a nice trip.

well i just drove from phuket to vientiane and back

just under 4000 kilometers all in

terrific trip, beautiful countryside, great roads and no trouble at all

in fact, planning the next one already
