Direct or connecting

How far it really runs
The route covers 134 km against 100 km in a straight line, a detour of 34 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
Where the change is
Connections are made at Chon Buri. The gap between arriving and leaving is 56 minutes, of which about 14 is walking.
If the connection is missed

Who runs this route

Pattaya is small enough to see in an afternoon, which is easier without the luggage. Storing it is not our business.

Prices come from the supplier wherever we hold a live quote. Elsewhere we show an indicative price built from the real distance, the real operator and a fare curve over lead time, day of the week and season. Those are labelled Estimated fare and cannot be booked.
