Why a fixed price suits this trip
The trip is long and has a ferry in the middle. Fuel, tolls, the airport pick-up, a child seat, waiting time and free cancellation up to 6 hours before pick-up are in the price, but the ferry fare is paid separately, and the driver follows your flight number, so a late plane does not cancel the pick-up. A long queue at the pier or a slow Highway 4 does not change the figure you booked.
International arrivals meet the driver at Gate 2 beside Exit 2, and domestic arrivals at Gate A. You pay when you book, by Visa, Mastercard or PayPal. Fast Track is an optional extra at the airport, for arrivals only.
The ferry is paid separately
The car crosses to Koh Lanta on a car ferry run by its own operator, with its own fare and timetable. The ferry fare is not included in the price above and is paid separately. The fare changes, so this page does not quote it. If you want the current figure before you book, message us on WhatsApp.
How the four prices step up
| Car | Price | More than the sedan |
|---|---|---|
| Sedan, up to 3 | 5,299 THB | Base price |
| SUV / MPV, up to 4 | 5,599 THB | 300 THB |
| Minibus, up to 9 | 6,199 THB | 900 THB |
| VIP Minibus, up to 8 | 7,199 THB | 1,900 THB |
The sedan to SUV step is only 300 THB, the smallest on the list. For four adults it is worth it. Five travellers need the minibus: one at 6,199 THB, against two sedans at 10,598 THB.
What can change the price

Comparing it with boats, minivans and rental cars
Boats, shared minivans and rental cars all have prices that move with season, so check the current figure before you compare. Add the extras for each: a second leg to the pier, ferry fares, the time it takes and the luggage you are carrying. The how-to-get page sets the options out in one place.
