Did the flight yesterday, Pattaya-Phuket. 3700bht and well worth it. Efficient and excellent service from BKK Air.
Certainly reccomd it rather than oing to BKK. Flight time that arrives mid afternoon good too.

Sounds like a good way to go, previous to this always gone via BKK but feel its a whole days travelling from hotel to hotel, sounds like this saves a bit of time.
Is it easy to get to and from Utapo airport ? Ive never been, are we at the mercy of taxi mafia 800 baht from airport into patts? What about from patts to the airport, can you rent songthaew or taxi reasonably ? thanks in advance

Flight was a third empty yesterday.
Hotel to airport 40 mins, flight 1hr 10 mins to phuket ( plane was 15 mins early arriving) Total time 1hr 50 mins. Cost 3700bht. Bargain Maybe ij was just unlucky.

i find it is much harder to get the flight you want by just showing up at airport or even booking the day before than it was a few years ago that was one of the things i loved about LOS, the ease to just go to airport and jump on a flight can hardly do that these days

Am currently having the same dilema for my trip in May - whether to fly from patts or bkk to phuket. I usually go from patts, but the flights seems to be a whole lot more expensive this time so gonna do it from bkk .
Looking at IJ's timings, can't see it making any difference apart from in the cost... Also , when going from phuket to patts, places like Areca Lodge do seem to be a rip off for the airport pick up, think they charged me something like 2500 baht last time round for 3 people ... so getting in a meter taxi should save alot.

I did, I did!! 45 mins wait for flight and 30 mins or so to Kamalala so that has to be added.
A friends current squeeze does the BKK-Pats taxi. New Isuzu for about 1200bht. Anyone want the phone numberf pm me and Ill give details. Quote:

unless you organise one in advance you could end up paying 600-800bht.....taxi ordered beforehand should only be about same as bus ask yor hotel if they have a free pick up service
