| You mean in Thailand? I booked Bangkok-Samui-Chang Mai-Bangkok through Bangkok Air and had no problems. I think they go to Phuket, Krabi and a couple of other Thai destinations. www.bangkokair.com |

You can book direct to Samui. Phangan is a ferry ride. Nothing to do there, roads are abyssmal. Samui though is great.  |

One of 2 ways. You can book it through your travel agent here or purchase the ticket when you arrive at the airport. I found the prices about the same. Bangkok Airways is nice. They have a waiting area with free Beer, drinks and snacks.
It is about an hour flight. Once you get to Samui a taxi should not be more than 300.00 baht to Chaweng or Lamai. About a half hour drive.
Chaweng is more busy and expensive than is Lamai. Also, it is full of married couples...depends on what you are looking for.
Excellent diving--especially Sail Rock. Big Blue is a great Dive Chop--did my OW there.
You get to Koh Phangan but ferry or speed boat. The Full Moon Party is always there.
When you leave Samui it will cost you a 500.00 baht fee at the airport.
It is a nice place and there are even cheaper, quieter areas outside of Chaweng and Lamai. |
