Car Hire Chiang Rai Airport

This airport is located in the city of Chiang Rai that is in the north of Thailand, but the facility itself is about 10 kilometers from the city center. One can access the airport by road that links the airport with Phahonyothin Superhighway that goes southwards to the city center. This road goes through Chiang Mai and all the way to Bangkok. The airport serves 500,000 passenger annually. It has one passenger terminal. Both the international and domestic arrivals and departures are handled on the same floor but on different and separate areas.

The airport is referred to as International and it also has facilities that can service international flights, but so far it has not serviced any international carrier. What it does is to handle immigration from Thai flights connecting from international destinations. This airport does not only give access for tourist to get into the region but also opens business opportunities because of its closeness to various bordering countries that are in the economic zone.

To get from the Chiang Rai Airport to the city center, you can take a taxi that charges 50 Baht. Those taxis also offer tour guide services where they take visitors around Chiang Rai city at an extra cost. Many hotels here offer transfer services too, which at times is a more comfortable option when you pay for your services as a single package. All you are required to do is to contact them prior to your landing and they will organize a car to pick you up from the airport to the hotel, and to any other destinations that you will have agreed and paid for. You can also drive yourself around by hiring a car. Car rental agencies desks are available in the passenger hall. This service is convenient for a visitor who wants to do his or her duties at his or her own pace.
