Today we will be flying with Nok Air – a great low-cost Thai airline that focuses on domestic routes. The flight time to Hat Yai is only around 1.5 hours and we would be arriving in the late morning time frame.

This would be our first time visiting Hat Yai, Thailand. Hat Yai is the largest city in the Songkhla Province, the largest metropolitan area in the south of Thailand, and the third-largest city in the country. Hat Yai is approximately 55 kilometers (35 miles) from the Malaysian border.

Overall we had a great travel day – our flight, experience at Hat Yai airport, and taxi to our hotel all went very smoothly.
