Travelling Chiang Mai - Hanoi via BKK

[Mahseer]

Bangkok to Hanoi will be with Vietnam Airlines and wondering if anyone knows what airline I can fly Chiang Mai to BKK to allow through connection. I.e. Clear immigration in Chiang Mai and not have to exit BKK and check back in.

 

Thanks

In the past the old-style travelagent would have taken care of that. Nowadays people expect others to do that work for them for free.

NO, AFAIK there are simply none that will do through-booking, IF there is one at all, it will be ThaiSmile. AND IF they do-thats only for luggage-all emigration will be in BKK.

In tis case it would in fact have been easier to use AirAsia and change in DMK, maybe they even do some form of thru-routing now for this-check their site. Or use good old TG all the way, incl ThaiSmile.

Thai Airways.

Air Asia, Nok and Thai all connect but first 2 may be point to point but all arrive around 2000. Preferred Vietnam Airlines from BKK due to mid afternoon arrival time and 2,800baht one way fare decent also so booked Thai from Chiang Mai and will have to check back in.

 

Cheers folks.
