Airport Transportation in Krabi
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Krabi International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Our airport transportation in Krabi takes you from the airport to hotels and villas in Ao Nang, Nopparat Thara, Klong Muang and Tubkaek, to guesthouses in Krabi Town, and to the piers for Railay and the islands.
Krabi Airport Transfers
Krabi airport transfers start at the arrivals exit, where your driver waits with a name sign after baggage claim and customs. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the price for your vehicle is fixed before you fly, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group with luggage.
Each Krabi airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, villa or vacation rental, or to the pier for your boat to Railay or Koh Phi Phi. Going on to Koh Lanta or Phuket? Enter your address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.
Krabi Airport Shuttle
Our Krabi airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not the airport bus that waits to fill up and stops at other hotels along the way. It suits families, groups and divers with gear heading to Ao Nang or the piers.
Landing at Krabi Airport
Krabi International Airport (KBV) is in Nuea Khlong, east of Krabi Town, and Thailand's Department of Airports runs it. Its terminal buildings are joined inside: Terminal 1 handles international flights and has the only immigration hall, while domestic flights use the domestic side, including Terminal 3, which opened in 2025.
On an international flight you go through immigration in Terminal 1, collect your bags on the lower level and walk through customs into the arrivals hall, where you find currency exchange counters, ATMs and car rental desks. Domestic arrivals lead straight to their own baggage claim and exit.
Thailand is on Indochina Time (UTC+7) all year, with no daylight saving time, and uses the Thai baht.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card
Every foreign traveler must complete the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online within three days before arrival. Keep the confirmation on your phone for immigration.
Visa-free stays
Since 15 September 2026, citizens of about 60 countries and territories can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days; others need a visa or visa on arrival. Check the current rule for your passport before you fly.
Railay by boat
Railay has no road access, so the last stretch is a longtail boat from Ao Nang beach or Ao Nam Mao pier, and you may wade ashore with your bags at low tide.
Krabi or Phuket
Some flights sold for the Krabi area land at Phuket International Airport (HKT) instead, so check the code on your ticket. For Phuket arrivals, see our Phuket Airport Transportation page.

How Krabi Airport pickup works

Clear arrivals
Immigration, baggage claim, then customs. Representatives can't enter those areas.
- 2
Meet your representative
At the meeting point in your confirmation. Check the company name before getting in.
- 3
Go straight there
No other stops, no other passengers.
Meet at the arrivals exit
Pre-booked drivers wait with name signs just outside the arrival gates, after baggage claim and customs.
International or domestic
International flights arrive in Terminal 1, where immigration is; domestic flights use their own arrivals exit on the domestic side of the same building, so check which exit your confirmation names.
Don't accept a ride from someone claiming to know your booking. Check the company name and reservation details before getting in.

Where will my driver meet me at Krabi Airport?
At the arrivals exit, holding a sign with your name, after baggage claim and customs. International flights arrive in Terminal 1; domestic flights use their own exit on the domestic side, so check which exit your confirmation names.
How far is Krabi Airport from Ao Nang and Krabi Town?
Krabi Town is about 15 km (9 miles) west of the airport, around 20 to 30 minutes by road. Ao Nang is about 45 minutes away, depending on traffic and where your hotel is along the beach.
Can you take me to Ao Nang or Nopparat Thara?
Yes. We drive to hotels, resorts and villas along Ao Nang beach, in the hills behind it and at Nopparat Thara.
Can you take me to Klong Muang or Tubkaek?
Yes. We drive door to door to the beach resorts at Klong Muang and Tubkaek, north of Ao Nang.
Can you take me to Railay?
Railay has no road access, so we drive you to Ao Nang beach or Ao Nam Mao pier, where longtail boats cross to Railay. Tell us your resort when you book so we choose the right departure point.
Can you take me to the ferry for Koh Phi Phi?
Yes. We drive you to the pier for your boat, usually Klong Jilad pier near Krabi Town or Ao Nang in season. Give us your ferry time when you book so the pickup leaves a comfortable margin.
Can you take me to Koh Lanta?
Koh Lanta is south of Krabi and reached by road with two short car ferry crossings. Enter your address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.
Can you take me to Phuket?
Phuket is across Phang Nga Bay from Krabi. Enter your address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly. If your flight lands at Phuket (HKT), see our Phuket Airport Transportation page.
How many terminals does Krabi Airport have?
Krabi Airport has connected terminal buildings. Terminal 1 handles international flights and has the only immigration hall, and domestic flights use the domestic side, including Terminal 3, which opened in 2025.
Do you drive to villas and vacation rentals in Krabi?
Yes. Give the full address or the villa's map pin and any gate details. Where a lane is too narrow for the vehicle, your driver stops at the nearest point a car can reach.
Do you pick up from late-night or early-morning flights?
Yes. Enter your flight when you book; the pickup is set to your arrival time, and your driver waits for the actual landing.
Should I buy transportation from people offering rides inside Krabi Airport?
There is no need. Booking ahead gives you a confirmed vehicle and a meeting point before you land. If someone approaches you in arrivals, check the company name against your confirmation before getting in.
What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?
We monitor the flight on your reservation, so your driver waits for the actual landing. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or your flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking so the pickup can be moved.
Can I book a ride back to Krabi Airport?
Yes. Book a one-way departure or a round trip from your hotel or villa, and give your flight number and departure time, so the pickup is set for check-in and security.
Is Airport Transportation the same as Krabi International Airport?
