Flying to Trat Airport for Koh Kood (Laem Sok Pier)

Flight Arrivals and Boat Connections to Koh Kood

From Trat Airport to Laem Sok Pier

When on its winter timetable from 29th October 2023 to 30th March 2024, Bangkok Airways’s lunchtime flight, PG305, leaves BKK at 12.45 and lands at 13.40. You can make the 14.40 catamaran to the island, 600bt per person, duration 1 hour. There is also a fallback of the 16.00 Seudamgo, again at 600bt per person, 60 minutes.

From 31/3/24 until around 28/10/24, the airline moves to its summer timetable with the PG305, 11.40 departure, 12.40 arrival.

The afternoon flight, PG307, departs at 16.15, arriving at Trat Airport at 17.15. You will not be able to reach the island on the same day so you must stay a night in Trat or near the pier.


Boats from Koh Kood and Flight Departures

To connect to the lunchtime PG306 flight departing at 14.10 (winter timetable), you take either the 09.00 Boonsiri, 600bt person, 09.30 Koh Kut Express mini catamaran (via Koh Mak), 600bt per person, docking at 10.45 or the 10.00 Seudamgo, 60 minutes direct, 600bt per person. Once on the summer timetable from 31/3/24, the PG306 departs at 13.10.

If taking the afternoon PG308 flight departing at 17.45, the last boats off Koh Kood are at 13.00, the Koh Kut Express speedboat, duration 60 minutes, price 600bt or the Seudamgo, 13.50 (via Koh Mak) docking at 15.20 or the 15.00, 60 minutes, same price.

In all cases, we can then meet you with a private vehicle to travel the 50 minutes to Trat Airport.

Please see here for the full Koh Kood ferry and speedboat timetables.


Private Transfer by Car or Minibus from Trat Airport to Laem Sok

From Trat Airport to Laem Sok Pier and the reverse, it is easiest to use private transfers to connect to the different boats.

These private transfers to/from Laem Sok Pier are priced at 1,500bt for a SUV style car (Innova, Fortuner, Pajero) for 2/3 adults or 2 adults and 2/3 children. It’s 1,800bt for a minibus for 4 to 8 persons.

We can organise both the transfer and the connecting boats for you, with our driving meeting passengers at Arrivals at Trat Airport with a name sign or directly off the boats on their return. Journey time is around 50 minutes between the Airport and the pier.

Please do contact us here for all your private transfer requirements.

Payment for the private transfer is either in THB cash on the day or with an initial deposit via Wise, Revolut, Thai bank transfer or PayPal invoice (with processing charges). No need for a PayPal account, you can use a credit or debit card.

You then pay the balances due in THB cash on the day, all fully agreed beforehand.

Payment for the boat tickets is upfront, their cost added to the same transfer/invoice as the deposit. Or we can take THB cash for them too on the day, paid to the driver.


Share Minibus from Trat Airport to Laem Sok

There is a share minibus service from Trat Airport to Laem Sok Pier, which connects to the 14.40 boat and no other company. The combined price is 1,000bt per person, including the boat ticket, with kids 4 and under at 400bt. You must check ahead that is in operation.

The share service is available from Laem Sok Pier back to Trat Airport in the mornings. The boat company provides a free shuttle from your resort to the departure pier for the 09.00 boat. The share minibus waits for you at Laem Sok, same pricing as above. That links you to the PG306 13.10 (or the 14.10 at certain times of year) lunchtime flight back to BKK.

We can book this for you, payment in full upfront by Wise, Revolut, Thai bank transfer or PayPal (with processing charges).
