Flight Into Chiang Mai

12:00 am

Parc Borough City Resort
223 Thanon Mahidol, Tambon Hai Ya, จ.เชียงใหม่ 50100, Thailand

Flights are scheduled to arrive in Chiang Mai, Thailand on 11/6/25, with travel times typically ranging from 24 to 40 hours. Round-trip flights average between $1,400 to $2,000, depending on booking timing. We will be staying at the Parc Borough hotel in Chiang Mai. This hotel is 2.5 miles from the Chiang Mai International Airport, where we will all be flying in from. Rooms are approximately $111 per night.

 You do not need to book at this hotel. However, we will all need to meet in the lobby of this hotel the morning of the 7th to be shuttled to Chai Lai Orchid, the elephant sanctuary. It is important that we all meet in the lobby the morning of Friday, November 7th. Travel to the sanctuary is about an hour, and missing the shuttle would mean needing to find another mode of transportation there. We will have a firmer timeline closer to the wedding date.
