FAQ
Is there a direct train from Khon Kaen to Hat Yai?
No. You change trains once, in Bangkok, and book each train as a separate ticket.
What is the fastest way from Khon Kaen to Hat Yai by train?
Take EX76 at 08:42, change in Bangkok and continue on SP31. The whole trip takes about 22h 23m, including 1h 30m to change trains.
What is the cheapest train from Khon Kaen to Hat Yai?
From about 445 THB per adult in total, on RP134 and RP171 in the cheapest available class.
How much time should I leave to change trains?
At least one hour at the same station. Long-distance trains, especially from the south, are often late, so a wait of 2–3 hours is safer. If you change between Hua Lamphong and Krung Thep Aphiwat in Bangkok, allow extra time to cross the city.
