Krabi
KLLD · Andaman CoastKrabi International Airport (IATA: KBV) serves the limestone-karst coast of Krabi Province in southern Thailand, handling flights from Bangkok (55-minute hop), Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, and several Chinese cities. It is the primary air gateway for travellers heading to Ao Nang, Railay Bay, Koh Lanta, and the Phi Phi Islands — and the most popular way to reach Krabi from Europe and the Middle East, particularly during the October–May high season.
Travelling overland between Krabi and Khao Lak is fully doable in a single direct transfer, covering approximately 180 km along the Phetkasem Highway (Route 4). The drive takes 2–2.5 hours by private car. Khao Lak Land Discovery offers the Khao Lak–Krabi Airport transfer from ฿3,800 one-way, ideal for multi-destination trips that combine a Krabi stopover with a Khao Lak beach stay.
Krabi Airport lies roughly 18 km north of Krabi town and 30 km from Ao Nang beach, the main tourist hub. Taxis from the airport are metered; airport bus services run to both Krabi town and Ao Nang. For group travel or early arrivals, a private minivan is the most practical option.
Many travellers fly into Krabi, explore the Phi Phi Islands or Railay Beach for a few days, and then transfer north to Khao Lak for the Similan Islands season (October–May). A direct private transfer from Krabi Airport to Khao Lak makes this itinerary seamless — your driver picks you up at arrivals and delivers you straight to your Khao Lak hotel with luggage.
