ozfarang81 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 u could fly thai via Bangkok Don Muang. that is the only option by air. otherwise you need to take a bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosha Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 If you fly pick the flight that leaves at 16:45, it's the quickest option. You'll have less than 1 hour at DMK. If you pick a morning flight you will have a 10 hour wait and still arrive at the same time in Khon Kaen. Info from Amadeus website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryLH Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I think there is a flight from CM to Udon Thani. That's about 100km North of KK. Not sure if that flight is still good since the recent problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

percy2 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I will be making exactly the reverse journey for exactly the same reason! For me the easiest way is to type the destination into the GPS and set off. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc69 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I am bumping this thread to ask for updated info on flights from Chiang Mai to Khon Kaen. Is there any direct flight available now or one has to fly via BKK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc69 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Nok Air I should have mentioned that I checked Nok Air and there is no flight as far as I could see. http://www.nokair.com/s1000_obj/contents/html/en-US/FlightSchedule.html?sCity=CNX&eCity=KKC&period=201007&x=43&y=8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotlost Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Nok Air canceled their flights about 2 weeks ago between Chiang Mai and Udon. No flights between KK and Cm so you can fly CM to BK and then BK to KK or Udon. You can take a train CM to BK then BK to K or Udon. Or there is the bus from CM to KK and Udon, 9 to 11 hours, and finally about 9 hours if you drive. This is what I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lite Beer Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 They must have cancelled their flights to Khon Kaen as well. Still in the drop down menu though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotlost Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 They must have cancelled their flights to Khon Kaen as well. Still in the drop down menu though. That's true about the drop down menu. Go to their Flight Schedule and put in CM to KK or Udon a big fat nothing comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
