Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 23, 2025
Taxis

Official airport taxis are available at a counter near Exit 1 in the arrivals hall. They operate on a fixed-fare system to the city center (typically around 150 THB). Ride-hailing services like Grab are also a popular option and can be booked via their app for pickup at a designated area.

Rental Cars

Several major international and local car rental companies have service desks in the arrivals terminal, including Avis, Hertz, Budget, Sixt, and Thai Rent a Car. It is highly recommended to have an International Driving Permit (IDP) along with your valid home country's license to rent a vehicle.

Public Transportation

The RTC Chiang Mai City Bus is the primary public transit option. It's an affordable, air-conditioned bus service with routes (like the R3 Red and Yellow lines) connecting the airport to the Old City, Nimman area, and other key points. The bus stop is located at Exit 1. Shared red trucks (Songthaews) and Tuk-Tuks are also available outside the airport, but fares must be negotiated beforehand.

Purchase of Avgas from PTT Posted by on October 8, 2015

I fly a small light aircraft that uses 100LL Avgas. Am I able to visit VTCC in order to purchase fuel or do I need to give 7 days' written notice of my arrival? Do I need to pay for ground handling? If so, the cost of refuelling at VTCC would be prohibitive.
