There are multiple ways to get to the thrilled city of Pattaya. Direct flights from Cambodia and Bangkok are arriving in Pattaya's airport U-Tapao which lies at 33 kilometers in the south of the city, traveling by airplane is a bit steep, especially when Bangkok is just at 2 hours from Pattaya, for that reason buses and minivans are a cheaper and great option too. You can take the bus in the main Bus Station in Bangkok or in Bangkok's airport, it has a fee of 180 Baht, and they are departing every 30 minutes. Minivan services operate from the north of Bangkok and Cambodia border, it has a cost around 150B departing from Bangkok and 260B from Cambodia.
