Known as one of the most busy flying hub of Asia, Thailand is a convenient bridge to those who want to connect their trip to other regional destinations such as Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar.
There are many flights from different airlines from Bangkok to Yangon, the former capital of Myanmar.Additionally, travelers are able to take flights from Phuket or ChiangMai to Yangon which are operated weekly.
1. For leisure travelers
The best idea is to depart from Bangkok to Yangon, touring the temples and attractions of Myanmar then proceed with a flight to Phu Ket, one of the most beautiful islands in Asia where you are offered to stay by the emerald view in comfort or simply immerse in an ocean excursion.
We recommend you to see Phuket as a replacement of Ngapali beach, the most beautiful beach in Burm for 2 reasons:
– You do not have to take the repeated flight ( Yangon – Thandwe, Thandwe – Yangon)
– You will enjoy different beaches in Phuket. Leisure activities are plenty to choose for your holiday.
* Flight schedule to connect Yangon to Phuket:
From Yangon to Phuket departs at 15:45 and arrives at 18:10
Phuket to Yangon departs at 19:50 and arrives at 21:10
2. For active travelers
While traveling in Myanmar brings you mostly the impression of temples, religion, culture and authentic nature, Chiang Mai, the northern province of Thailand boasts a wonderful place for trekkers, biker, motor riders and nature lovers. Importantly, from Chiang Mai, you can connect to Bangkok easily with many flights a day. If your Myanmar Travel is occupied with some outdoors such as trekking in Kalaw, Taungyi or elephant riding in Burma Camp, you can still enjoy something different in Chiang Mai.
Flight schedule to connect Chiang Mai with Yangon:
Yangon to Chiang Mai departs at 14:35 and arrives at 16:05 every Thursday and Sunday
Chiang Mai to Yangon departs at 17:20 and arrives at 17:50 every Thursday and Sunday
Some special notes:
