Is it really worth flying to Buriram?

NCA buses do the trip in little over 5 hours. The cost is a fraction of the flight costs. Also the airport is situated well out of town.

It would be my guess that the total times between flying and taking NCA from Bangkok to Buriram would not be far apart.

By the time you have checked in ,then waited......the time diff is negligible....Buriram Airport is way out of town....plus you can take more than 15kg bggage on NCA..............Korat suffers even worse....only 3 hours by bus from BKK & the Airport is closer to Buriram than Korat!

Cancelled due to the plane being serviced during May and June for those who have booked you will have to wait 45 days till you are refunded you hard earned.

2 months to do a service check.........even a 'major' doesn't take that long on the 'puddle jumpers' they use on this route.
