There is a VIP bus to Korat about 900-1000 bhts, more comfortable than a public bus that will only cost you 500 bahts...

Thanks JK, any info on where to catch that bus ?

[welshwonder]

what about a train ? I travelled from bkk to burrium sometime ago and prefered it alot more than the bus. You see alot more of the countryside/sights, more comfortable and alot more space to walk around and stretch your feet, plus when you stop at the other stations the train is invaded by food sellers bringing on fresh thai food

Nokhon Chai Air is a very good bus I went gold class last month from Korat to Pattaya for 420 baht took just over 4 hours, you can also get a VIP bus from 3rd road cost is about 320 baht and takes about 5 hours

Here's a link to NCA buses, it's the best way to get to Korat and it will save you over 3000 baht

Just a tip, what ever bus company you decide to use, NCA are the best Chan Tours VIP also good, get your tickets as early as possible many people travel at that time of year.
