Travelling to Hatyai Airport via Padang Besar, Thailand side.

For the people of Perlis and northern Kedah, it is cheaper to travel to northern parts of Asia the fastest way without transit in Kuala Lumpur, as the nearest airport is at Hatyai and you will need to change flight at Don Mueang Airport.
Here is an alternative and cheapest way for those who love traveling. We recommend you Hatyai Airport, an hour journey from Padang Besar using alternative route avoiding Sadoa, Thailand (which is nearer to Bukit Kayu Hitam, Kedah CIQ).
You can just park your car at the Padang Besar CIQ which has spacious parking lot or you can park your vehicles at our homestays, take taxi to Padang Besar, stamp your international passport and take van at Thailand's Padang Besar to Hatyai.
If you are in hurry, and you want to charter the van, its cost is around 1,500 baht (at the time of this article written). It is cheaper if you travel in the number of 10 persons, because the van has 10 comfortable seats.
Here is the photos of how to get there.
