Bangkok Airways runs the Trat flights (and the airport). Occasionally they'll operate a Phuket-Trat service in addition to the Bangkok-Trat route. Check their website.
That said, if you figure in the time it takes to get to the airport, wait for your flight, then get from Trat airport to the ferry, a van or bus from Bangkok or Pattaya is not that much longer. And maybe even less of a hassle since you don't have to transfer from taxi to plane to shuttle.
OR, you could do what I like to do...rent a car in Bangkok and drive yourself. It's an interesting drive, and a car is very useful on Koh Chang. It's the country's second-largest island after Phuket.
