Bangkok Airways begins new domestic, Myanmar flights from Chiang Mai
Bangkok Airways has launched four new routes from its new regional hub at Chiang Mai to Phuket, Udon Thani, and Myanmar destinations Mandalay and Yangon.
The carrier will operate two daily flights to Udon Thani on 70-seat ATR72-500 aircraft and once a day to Phuket.
Departures to Mandalay and Yangon will be three times and four times a week respectively.
The airline is currently offering special promotion fares on all four routes staring at THB1,445 excluding taxes.
"By utilising Chaing Mai International Airport as another hub, it will enhance Bangkok Airways’ ability to support the growing demand for air travel when the AEC takes place in 2015" said Ariya Prasarttong-Osoth, vice president of sales at Bangkok Airways.
"It will also allow us to provide better flight connections for our passengers who wish to continue their travel to the Northeastern and Southern part of Thailand as well as to Myanmar without having to fly back to Suvarnabhumi Airport to connect to those destinations."
