Choose a private transfer

For the most elevated travel experience, cover the distance with a Daytrip private car transfer. This is a particularly convenient option for travelers with kids, as it's possible to book cars with child seats. A private journey also allows parents to sit back and relax instead of facing the stress of navigating public transport with children in tow. With child seats and door-to-door service, Daytrip ensures maximum safety and comfort for even your littlest travelers.

Set off early

Be sure to get an early start to make the most of your drive from Pattaya to BKK Airport. When you schedule your ride early, you leave yourself more time for sightseeing possibilities and can reach the airport with plenty of time to spare, even in heavy traffic. This is also important for travelers with children to avoid the added stress of rushing at the airport.

A private transfer is a great option for airport transport. It provides more flexibility than a bus timetable and enables you to choose a departure time that aligns with your flight time and preferences.

Explore Thailand on the way

Perhaps the best part of a Pattaya to Bangkok Airport transfer is the opportunity to explore more of Thailand on your own schedule. Passengers can add sightseeing stops to their trip at booking, including at iconic locations such as Buddha Mountain or Muang Boran, a huge open air museum, with 115 buildings spread out over 240 acres.

This is an added benefit of taking a Daytrip private transfer, as you aren’t restricted to a bus timetable or prevented from making stops for the duration of your trip.

Flight from Pattaya to Bangkok Airport

Due to the short distance, there are no direct flights from U-Tapao Airport (UTP) in Pattaya to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK).
