Buriram airport (BFV) to Surin - transport options?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know the transport options from Buriram Airport to Surin?

Is there a bus or minivan? Taxis? I searched online and couldn't find much.

Thanks in advance!

With zero flights to Surin Airport and NokAir cutting back to 3 flights per week to Buriram the only taxi service may well be a tak tak.

When did nok air start flying to buriram again

For quite a while. I venture to guess 6 years. They go up and down on the number of days (at present just 3 per week).

I think your find the now defunct PB Air used to fly to Buriram up until a few years ago

Well I might as well answer my own question here:

  • Buriram Expats Car Rental doesn't offer transfer from BFV to Surin city center.
  • There's a transport counter at BFV with vans and limousines going to various places. I'll try to snap a photo when I go back.
  • 1400 Baht to go to Mueang Surin via "limousine" i.e. an old Toyota Tercel equivalent.
  • The car from BFV-Surin cost almost as much as the BKK-BFV flight.

Thanks for the update. Definitely back to this then.

Here's the transportation counter price list at BFV: http://imgur.com/24w7t29

The first number is distance in km, the second is the price in baht.

Surely there is a less expensive way to get to these places - you'd probably be better off hiring a personal driver off the internet.

Oh, and it cost me 1200 baht to return to BFV from Surin.

It's always fun getting ripped off when you travel to the countryside.

You see all the posts about the additional expense of the 'extended' family, you remember the ones, best to marry an orphan!!..........well you know...... a few baht for diesel, an ice cream and soda for the inevitable bunch of kids along for the ride, pick up some fruit and snacks on the way back,......an enjoyable excursion......

Sure beats moaning about 'ripoff' taxi fares..smile.png.......besides I expect it is just not quite the same giving the taxi driver a big hug on arrival....sad.png

That want WHAT to WHERE ?w00t.gif No wounder Nokair has cut back to 3 flights per week. At these prices for ground transport they will stop flying into Buriram.crazy.gif

The prices are crazy, aren't they? It's even worse than Phuket, and I didn't think that was possible. Taxis in Los Angeles might be cheaper than this.

The weird thing is - there are no other flights going in and out of BFV as far as I can tell, so the airport just has that one flight and that's it.

I love the little turboprop plane they use, though. Just bring your earplugs if you ever use that flight - the engines are loud as heck.
