Why You Should Take a Flight to Ko Phi Phi

Live the Southeast Asian dream in Ko Phi Phi, an archipelago of six picture perfect islands off Thailand’s west coast. Whether you’re after tranquillity or hedonism, these islands have it all - sandy beaches, warm seas, lush jungles and all-night parties.


When to Book Flights to Ko Phi Phi

It is always hot in the Phi Phi islands, with temperatures hitting 30°C all year round. The main seasonal difference is the amount of rain. Peak season on the main island of Ko Phi Phi Don runs from December to March, which are the driest months of the year.

The summer months from June to August are also popular, although showers are more frequent.

The best time of year to find a cheap flight to Ko Phi Phi is in spring or autumn, when visitor numbers are at their lowest.

What Are the Must-sees in Ko Phi Phi?

The Beach, starring Leonardo di Caprio, was shot on Ko Phi Phi Lei in the late 1990s. You can visit the stunning island, which is Ko Phi Phi Don’s smaller neighbour, on a day trip or even camp here overnight.

Leave the party atmosphere of Ton Sai village behind and clamber up Phi Phi Viewpoint for stunning views of the island. The bush walk is short but strenuous and the rewards are worth it, and you can continue east to some of Ko Phi Phi Don’s quieter beaches.

One of the highlights of a cruise around Ko Phi Phi Don is a visit to Viking Cave, where swifts’ nests are harvested for birds’ nest soup.

Ko Phi Phi’s reputation as a party spot means that prices are not cheap, so be prepared to spend more than you would expect. Avoid staying on the main strip in Ton Sai village if you want a peaceful holiday. The parties in town can last into the early hours.

How to survive the flight to Ko Phi Phi?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Ko Phi Phi could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ko Phi Phi?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Ko Phi Phi, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
