Transportation in Thailand is extremely convenient and cheap. Flying is extremely cheap and most common mode of transportation for Tourists as well as for locals. Flights to and from popular Islands like Phuket or Koh Samui are very inexpensive and plenty of flights are available throughout the day. There’s a lot of competition in the market, Bangkok Airways, Thai Airways, Air Asia, Nokair and Oriental Thai (Oriental Thai is indeed not recommended by One-Two-Go.com due to a history of security Issues).So we will not cover this Airline further in this blog. All others are safe and perfectly operated by themselves or by Thai Airways (Nokair).
Most Flights between Thai cities and Islands are between 1000 and 2000 baht including taxes with Air Asia and Nokair (The low cost airline of Thai Airlines). Bangkok air and Thai Airways are slightly more expensive.

Be careful while bloging on their website because they try to sell you unneeded options like luggage insurance, seat selection and so on. You have to UN-tick those options during the bloging process again and again as they are already ticked for you… No big deal if you don’t, but try to save those 200 baht for something useful like a nice meal with a beer at your destination.
