Nakhonchaiair

About Nakhonchaiair

Nakhonchaiair sits at the premium end of the Thai coach market and is often used as the industry's reference point. The clearest difference is that it operates its own terminals in several provinces, separate from the state bus stations.

Main routes: Bangkok – Chiang Mai, Bangkok – Chiang Rai, Bangkok – Ubon Ratchathani and Bangkok – Khon Kaen.

Two main service levels:

  1. First Class – the company's top level, with fewer seats per coach than a standard Por 1 bus and correspondingly more space per seat
  2. Gold Class – the company's standard level, also with fewer seats per coach than a standard Por 1 bus

First Class and Gold Class are trade names, not Department of Land Transport standard classes. When you compare fares against other operators, compare seat counts and seat maps rather than class names.

Since departures use the company's own terminals, report to the counter inside the terminal to have the ticket issued before boarding, even if you booked and paid online.

Departure points are often the company's own terminals rather than a state bus station — check the terminal name on your ticket before you set off.
