How To Reach Phuket From Chennai

Here’s an excursion to the paradise of vacation- Phuket

Rated 4.40/5 ( based on 6408 reviews )

Chennai is a metropolitan city located on the eastern peninsular region of India. Though located in the south, the city has decent connectivity with all the other cities within the country as well as outside it. Though the best way to travel from Chennai to Phuket is by air, the information given below gives a detailed description on how to reach Phuket from Chennai:

By air: The best way to travel from Chennai to Phuket is by air as the rates are cheaper than other cities in India. A direct Chennai to Phuket flight can be boarded from the Chennai International Airport up to Phuket International Airport. Both the airports are well connected to the respective cities, and therefore, offer a time saving and convenient travel experience. Chennai to Phuket flight distance is around 2000km, and the flight duration from Chennai to Phuket can be around 7 to 8 hours. The fares are reasonable during the off-season and is great for budget travelers.

By rail: There are no direct trains from Chennai to Phuket. However, one can travel by trains after reaching Bangkok, Thailand. All the cities in Thailand have a well-connected railway network that is very well maintained and gives a nice traveling experience to the people, but Phuket, being an island has no such services. One can take a train to Singapore and then take a bus or ferry to Phuket.

By road: Reaching Phuket by road can be very tiring and time-consuming. Apart from this, one needs to have a high-budget for this. The Chennai to Phuket distance is around 5700km, and the route that one must take is Delhi- Myanmar- Thailand. There are many documents required for the same. Apart from the Thailand visa, one must have a Myanmar visa, and various other such documents. Traveling to Phuket by own transportation requires security money for the vehicle which is 200% of the vehicle’s total value. This makes the whole road trip plan from Chennai to Phuket expensive and full of hassles.

Salianmohit's 5 days trip to Phuket

Appreciate Raisha and Thailand team co-ordinating our first international trip so well. Everything was planned so well. Just be aware of the scams that exist in Thailand and do some research before reaching their. Cruise at bangkok and beaches in phuket and pattaya.

Harnek Singh

Harnek's 6 days trip to Phuket

Our recent family trip to Thailand (booked for 2 adults and our 3-year-old daughter) was unfortunately marred by constant issues and last-minute financial demands from SPSV TRAVELS (booked via Travel Triangle). The core problem stemmed from the inaccurate booking: despite clear communication that o

ur child was 3 years old, the package was booked only for "2 adults and 1 infant." We were assured by Mr. Krishna and Khushi Gupta that this would not cause an issue, yet it became a source of trouble throughout the trip. Last-Minute Price Hike: Immediately after booking, Mr. Krishna requested an additional ₹6,000 citing a sudden change in flight prices. Inflexible Itinerary: We were denied a simple itinerary swap—even with three days' notice—being told we could only cancel an activity, not substitute it. Mid-Trip Extortion: The most unacceptable issue occurred at the Underwater World attraction. The driver suddenly demanded money, stating our 3-year-old's ticket was not included. When we contacted Mr. Krishna and Khushi Gupta, we were essentially threatened that the "on ground team [would] stop their service" unless we paid immediately. Imagine having to deal with these unforeseen costs and stressful situations in the middle of a trip with a small child. This experience was deeply unprofessional, ruined the spontaneity we expected from a holiday, and demonstrated a clear breach of trust. Future travelers should be highly cautious of SPSV TRAVELS' practices regarding accurate traveler details, price guarantees, and their handling of on-ground service.

We had an amazing trip to Thailand with NavigatioAsia covering Bangkok and Pattaya (3 days each). Everything was well-organized, perfectly planned, and always on time. Our travel advisor and guide, Parul Singh, was extremely helpful throughout the process — from bookings to payments, everything was

completely hassle-free and trustworthy. Special thanks also to Tarun and Sunny for their support in making our trip smooth and memorable. Truly appreciate the whole NavigatioAsia team for giving us such a wonderful travel experience. Highly recommended!

FAQ's of Phuket

Read on to find out why our customers love us!

What is the best way to reach Phuket?

The best way to reach Phuket is by air. There are many flights available from some of the major cities of India like Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata and New Delhi to Phuket International Airport. These flights consume less time and help in making your travel experience less tiring and within the budget.

What is the best way to get around in Phuket?

The best way to get around in Phuket is by hiring a car or a bike, because the local transportation like tuk-tuk and taxis may charge you more, and it might be difficult to bargain with them every time one has to travel from one place to another. However, understand all the traffic rules very well before going for the driving experience.
