Air
THAI operates daily flights from Bangkok to Trang (around 3500B), but there have been some problems with landing at this airport in rain. The THAI office (0 7521 9923; 199/2 Th Visetkul) is open weekdays only. The airport is 4km south of Trang; air-con minivans meet flights and charge 80B to town. In the reverse direction a taxi or túk-túk will cost 100B to 150B.
