exeter Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I am thinking of visiting Chiang Mai and would then like to fly down to Pattaya, I know the airport fro Pattaya is nearer to Sattahip but are there flights and if so what airline flies the route so I can have a look at timetables and prices? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) From Chiangmai to Utapao? Bangkok Airways uses Utapao, but you would have to change before to get there and that would be at Phuket or Ko Samui Edited July 4, 2012 by beano2274 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I remember from a few years ago to get to almost anywhere in Thailand you had to go via Bangkok. My boss at one time wanted to send me to Ubon Ratchathani from Khon Kaen by air even though I had a car and driver. I had to explain to him slowly with small words that first I would have to go from Khon Kaen to BKK, miss my connection there and wait another day and then catch a flight to Ubon plus the overnight in BKK. Also my car and driver would have to go to Ubon anyway with all the tools and test equipment. He is still in the business and higher up the food chain in a different country. I on the other hand am retired and stress free. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rama Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Fly from CM to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Int'l airport. Go to Wikitravel they tell you how to go from Swampy to Pattaya - http://wikitravel.org/en/Pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuang Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Take a flight from CNX TO BKK swampy, then a coach to Pataya I think at Level 1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 If there was a flight, the price would be quite a bit more and the options quite a bit less. From Utapao to Pattaya proper is at least 45 minutes. From the airport to Pattaya proper is only 45 minutes more. 1200B for a private taxi.

DowntownAl Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Check Air Asia and Nok Air for decent pricing. CM to BKK is your best route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beano2274 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Could fly into Don Muang then take the train to Hua Lamphong, from there must be trains or minivans to Pattaya. Or get off the train at Bang Sue, and take a bus or motorcycle to Mochit Bus Station. There are many ways to get from Downtown Bangkok to Pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exeter Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Thanks for all the imformation, as there will be 4 of us and 2 with large luggage, motorcycles and mini vans might not be the prefered form of transport, so maybe a coach or taxi from BKK is the one to look into.

You can book a van (minibus) here at very reasonable price : http://www.thelimopattaya.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=article&Id=561301 Very reliable. Have used them for many years (trips) now as do my friends. Yermanee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradflorescu Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 No need to fly. At the base level of Suvarnabhumi there is a bus service to Pattaya. It costs a rough 100 THB per person and you'll get there in one hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rakman Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Rent a small cargo plane, have a limo meet your entourage in PYX and party like rock stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayonarax Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 You sure can if you take LCD and teleport there. The only way you can get there via plane, is using a light aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really going to annoy allot of people in Pattaya in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
