Direct flights from Phuket International Airport

General Information About Phuket International Airport

General information - Phuket International Airport serves as the hub of air travel in Phuket, providing domestic and international flights alike. As its gateway to this stunning tropical island paradise known for its white sand beaches and breathtaking rural sites.

Traveling through and from the airport is made simpler thanks to three terminals - international, domestic and cargo terminals - each catering for different arrival and departure patterns and facilities and services that make life easy, such as free Wi-Fi, duty-free shops, car rental services, prayer rooms etc.

Transfers between Phuket International Airport and popular destinations are readily accessible via public taxis, limousines and fixed price airport buses available both domestically and internationally at both terminals. Taxis to popular spots like Phuket City (400 Thai Baht for 30 minutes of travel time) or Patong Beach (550 Baht for 40 minutes) can also be booked from airport metered taxi counters.

Taxis can be an ideal choice if you're on a tight budget or would rather avoid traffic jams, however be wary that their fare may not always be transparent - a 100 baht surcharge may apply, so make sure that before leaping in one, it is priced correctly!

Currency exchange booths can be found both in the arrivals area and departures area of the international terminal, making changing your holiday money an effortless experience. You can also order foreign currency from various local shops and agencies before your flight lands; just be sure to bring enough cash for transactions!
