Is it better for a first-time traveler to fly into Bangkok or Phuket?

Peter *********

Okay good question. I think you should, if possible fly into either, and depart via the other. So in other words, into bbk and home via Phuket.

Internal flights are frequent and not expensive. By air the flight from bkk to Phuket is just over one hour.

By doing this, you will see far more of Thailand.

I'm here now in Bangkok.
