Could I get some advise on the best way to get from CM to Udon? Land or air?

Typing in Chiang Mai To Udon in browser your search bar gives a few options

Nok Air fly

Buses from the Arcade bus station in Chiang Mai.

I'm sure you can work out which is cheaper

Nokiar is best.the bus is dangerous.forget the train.be way out of your way

I would use Nok air. In my mind it´s more comfortable and of course fast.

Then Nok Air it is. Didn't know there was a direct flight. I was imagining CNX-BKK-UDD. Thanks a lot.

There are 3 daily Nok Air flights from Chiang Mai to Udon Thani.

7.25am

11.20am

17.50pm

Takes about 1 hour 20 minutes.....prices from around 1700 baht one way(including taxes) if you book a month or two in advance.

If you leave it till around a few days to book before you fly,then the price could rise significantly.

Have used Nok several times - am flying to Udon again this Thursday - however beware, they do not use real planes, only ones with twirly things instead of real engines
