Phitsanulok Airport — What to Expect

Phitsanulok Airport is the gateway to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Sukhothai Historical Park, the ancient capital of Thailand. The airport is conveniently located just 5 km from the city center. Most visitors use Phitsanulok as a base for exploring Sukhothai's temple ruins, which are about an hour away by road. A pre-booked transfer can take you directly to the historical park or your hotel in either city.

Phitsanulok Airport handles domestic flights from Bangkok and is the most convenient airport for visiting Sukhothai. The compact terminal is easy to navigate.
