Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX)
ท่าอากาศยานเชียงใหม่
Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) is the main air gateway for northern Thailand. The airport sits southwest of the old city, close enough that most hotel transfers are short compared with Bangkok’s dual-airport system.
Arrivals are straightforward: clear the hall, then use the official taxi desk, ride-hailing pickup, or a pre-booked driver. Because the drive into town is relatively short, many visitors go straight to their hotel before deciding on a first-day plan around the old city temples, Nimman, or a day trip to Doi Suthep.
Continue with the Chiang Mai visit guide for neighbourhoods, temples, and mountain trips. Fast-track and transfer services anchored to CNX appear under Services when you need a bookable product.
