rheinwiese Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 There are no direct flights from Chiang Mai to Penang. I suggest Air Asia via Bangkok. Should be the cheapest option. Around 4-5k Baht one way. Note: only 1 Air Asia flight per day BKK PEN taking off @ 13.55 Crystal Thai isn't off the ground yet. 1st flight Feb 17th. So far no KL service announced.

Ricardo Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Air Asia via K.L. ? Or direct daily (new route) to Hat-Yai, then by minibus, on to Penang ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistakurtz Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Air Asia via K.L. ? Or direct daily (new route) to Hat-Yai, then by minibus, on to Penang ? Or Chiang Mai direct to Udon Thani with NOK, then on to Ventienne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunDave Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 thx for the answers,how far the way by bus and boat from KL to penang? price aproximently for the flight? must i booked in advance,or is it not nesarsarly? Air Asia's very best prices need to be booked far in advance. For the second half of April you are looking at 2300 to 3000Bt for KL or 1700 to 2000Bt for Hat Yai. This is a useful site for checking Air Asia prices: AA Plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 2 low-cost airlines on the KL-Penang route both from Kuala Lumpur LCC terminal. Check out www.airasia.com and www.fireflyz.com.my. As for buses, for the more safe ones with less accidents, check out www.aeroline.com.my. You find all prices on the the websites. Air travel will save you a lot of time. The bus trip from KL to Penang takes 4-5 hours. Advance booking for promotion prices is highly recommended. The longer you wait, the more you pay.
