Pattaya to Chiang Mai Destination Reviews

This airline only allows one carry-on with you, not like other airlines usually let you take 1 carry-on and one smaller backpack. They made my group check in a carryon suitcase and that costed the same price of an adult passenger. I will avoid this airline next time.

Seamless flight. The airport has one coffee shop in it so make sure you have food before you leave. The crew were checking hand luggage bags before and after security and some people were being made to empty their bags before boarding due to the weight, which seemed like a pointless and time wasting exercise. Apart from this, it was on time and comfortable.
