Hua Hin travel by plane

airport hua hin Located about a 15 minute drive north of Hua Hin town centre, the airport has had a somewhat chequered past.

There have always been intermittent daily flights to Bangkok, but plans to include it on the Bangkok-Hua Hin-Samui and proposed Phuket-Hua Hin-Pattaya routes were shelved.

The close proximity of Hua Hin to Bangkok probably made them financially unviable.
More laterly, the airport went through massive development extending the runway and terminal facilities to upgrade it to an International airport. Again this idea never got off the ground - literally - and the whole concept has been postponed indefinitely, although the development did take place.

Flights to and from Hua Hin

Nowadays, there are only daily flights to and from Bangkok through SGA on board a 12 seater Cessna Grand Caravan. The flight time is 30-45 mins and the schedule is as follows (effective Jan 15 - May 31 2007):

Bangkok - Hua Hin
availabilities Flight Depart Arrive
Daily 5E903 10:45 11:35
Daily 5E905 14:15 15:05
Daily 5E907 17:15 18:05

Hua Hin - Bangkok
availabilities Flight Depart Arrive
Daily 5E904 12:30 13:20
Daily 5E906 15:30 16:20
Daily 5E908 18:30 19:20



Check-in is 35 mins before departure in both directions, but you're better off allowing 1 hour. Costs are approximately 3,700 Baht one way and 5,800 Baht return for adults, with chidren under 12 being charged 2,250 Baht and 3,650 Baht respectively.

Departures and arrivals to and from Bangkok are currently listed at Suvarnabhumi International Airport which makes connections for international flights more easy. However, it should be noted that certain domestic airlines have been moving back temporarily to the old Don Muang International Airport whilst repairs are carried out at Suvarnabhumi. It is essential that you check which airport is being used at time of travel.
