Hat Yai Airport Transfer: Meeting Point, Waiting Time & Private Car vs Taxi
Hat Yai International Airport is about 20 to 30 minutes from the city centre. You can queue for a taxi, or have your driver already waiting. Here is how a private transfer works.
How it works
- Send us your flight number when you book.
- Your driver meets you at the agreed meeting point in arrivals.
- You go straight to your hotel, or start your tour right away.

What if my flight is late?
We track your arrival. For tours that start from the airport, your driver waits up to 3 hours after landing. Please keep your phone on and reachable on WhatsApp or LINE.
Private transfer vs taxi

Combine your transfer with a tour
Many guests land in the morning and go straight to Songkhla or a city tour, with their luggage safely in the van. See our airport transfer service and the Hat Yai – Songkhla package.
