Nakhonchai Air vs Srimongkol from Pattaya to Korat ?


Recommended Posts

An update.

Sri Mongkol is the undisputed authority for luxury VIP bus travel from Pattaya to Korat. Double-decker with water and bun. Trip was smooth.

Just FYI: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/921219-driver-sought-as-runaway-ubon-pattaya-bus-kills-passenger-and-injures-45/

I wouldn't go on one of those deathtraps even if someone else bought the ticket for me. I cycle along third road most days right past these ageing crates with wheels and their condition is appalling.

personally it takes more than water and a bun to convince me to entrust my life to any bus company

NCA does not have VIP bus from Pattaya to Korat.

Congrats!

Just that their drivers do not hesitate to go downhill with a broken gearbox like the one from Ubon to Pattaya (which he did not reach).

Never enter a double-decker! (which will be forbidden in the future, so says the junta).

Don't do night rides.

Looks exactly like the bus I took.

But in my case, the service was impeccable, especially the trip from Korat to Pattaya.

there is a good reason for that. they will be probably scrambling to recover that chassis

" Many of the used chassis come from vehicles that have just had an accident and without having any kind of formal inspection by an engineer. "

hard to believe that there is still anyone who has the slightest doubt that NCA is by far Thailand safest and most reputable Bus company.

If NCA does not serve a destination, I rather choose to fly

Would like to know if Nakhonchai Air still rules the roost? Will need to take a bus from Korat to Pattaya next week and would like to travel as comfortably as possible.

Do their VIP buses have mobile phone charging outlets?
