Curious if anyone has recently flown internationally from the USA direct to CNX? (I know it is supposed to be possible, but I am not finding an airline to book it for less than the price of a mortgage on a small house.) I'm wondering if it will improve after June 1st? Or is this a user error? Lol
TLDR : Answer Summary
The query regarding direct flights from the USA to Chiang Mai (CNX) reveals that there are currently very few international options available. Most travelers note the necessity of flying into Bangkok (BKK) and then taking a domestic flight to CNX due to a lack of direct flights. Participants also mention high ticket prices and changes in flight availability due to global circumstances, such as the closure of Russian airspace and increased overall travel costs. They suggest booking a single ticket through to CNX to avoid separate baggage allowances, and some airlines with transits through Singapore or Taipei may provide options after certain dates.
