Taipei to Chiang Mai flight guide
China Airlines, EVA Air, Starlux Airlines and Thai AirAsia fly nonstop from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) in Taipei to Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) in northern Thailand. The 2,399 km flight takes about 3 hours 30 minutes. With several airlines, this is one of the best-served routes into the Thai north, popular with Taiwanese holidaymakers and with travellers connecting in Taipei from North America and Japan.
China Airlines, EVA Air and Starlux are full-service carriers, so the fare normally covers a checked bag and a meal. Thai AirAsia sells the seat on its own and charges for bags, meals and seat choice. Compare the price you will actually pay.
Starlux flight JX751 leaves Taipei at 13:05 and lands in Chiang Mai at 16:05, which gets you to your hotel before dinner. The airline put its Airbus A330-900neo on some flights from 15 August to 24 October 2026 and again from 21 to 29 November 2026, and it increases from three to five flights a week between 22 November 2026 and 20 January 2027.
Taoyuan is about 40 km west of the city. The Taoyuan Airport MRT express runs from Taipei Main Station in roughly 35 to 40 minutes, and Taoyuan Metro offers in-town check-in at A1 Taipei Main Station and A3 New Taipei Industrial Park, so you can drop bags and get your boarding pass before the ride.
Entry rules for Thailand vary by nationality. All foreign visitors complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card within 72 hours before landing; see our Thailand visa page. A month-long trip fits the new rules: from 15 September 2026, visa-exempt tourists from 60 countries and territories get 30 days, down from 60.
The airport is just south-west of the old city. AOT, the airport operator, lists flat-fare shuttle vans from Gate 12 of the international terminal: 40 baht on route A1 to Nimmanhaemin, Huay Kaew and the moat, 40 baht on route A2 to Mahidol Road, the Night Bazaar and Chang Khlan Road, and 60 baht on route A3 to Ring Road 2. The Chiang Mai City Bus yellow and red lines run from 06:00 to 23:30, and taxis or Grab take 15 to 20 minutes to most hotels. Many hotels offer free pickup; songthaews and tuk-tuks are cheap if you agree the fare first.
November to February is the cool season, with warm days and evenings that can drop to about 10°C, and Starlux's extra winter flights reflect that demand. April brings heat up to about 40°C, and the rains run roughly from June to October.
Turn your watch back one hour on landing (Taiwan is UTC+8, Thailand UTC+7). For onward travel, fly from Chiang Mai to Bangkok and connect there, for example to South Asia from Suvarnabhumi (see Bangkok to Dhaka flights).
