Book your flights early!

It's all over the news here in Phuket, 'Phuket-bound tourists stranded in Bangkok'.

In actual fact, the situation is not quite as traumatic as this headline would have readers believe but still, it is a concern. Now that One-Two-Go and Nok Air (two Thai domestic airlines) have stopped flying to Phuket, many tourists are unable to find flights to our lovely southern island unless they have booked way in advance.


Our advice... if you are looking to visit Phuket in the coming months, for a liveaboard diving trip or otherwise, book your flights EARLY! The last thing you need is to find that you have booked your luxury liveaboard trip on board MV Philkade but will be stranded in Bangkok unable to reach the boat!

At the time of writing this flights from Bangkok to Phuket are available if booked in advance with Air Asia, THAI Airways & Bangkok Airways.
For further up to date travel advice you can view MV Philkade's travel facts page.
