The ticket includes a voucher for food at the stop, about half the trip.<br \/>You find a few pictures of the food below. The bus leaves Chiang Mai at 20:30 and arrives in Bangkok at 6 in the morning.<br \/>Most passengers got off at the Bangkok Bus Lines office, but the bus continued to Mo Chit since that is what you paid for! They might tell you that it does not, so you have to insist on it. They will drop you there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-how-to-get-a-ticket-for-bangkok-bus-lines\">How to get a Ticket for Bangkok Bus Lines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bangkok Bus Lines has a counter at the bus station in Chiang Mai if you want to get your ticket there. You can come to the station a few hours before to get it. This usually works off-season, but if you want to travel in high season or before public holidays, you&#8217;d better get a ticket in advance.<br \/>I typically book with 12go.asia: From Chiang Mai Bus Terminal to Bangkok Mo Chit Bus Terminal. Make sure to check BusOnline Tickets as well. They might have a Bangkok Bus ticket even when 12go is out of tickets!<br \/>(Affiliate links that do not cost you more but might get me a beer eventually!)<br \/>The same goes for the bus from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. You can get a ticket at Mo Chit Bus Terminal. Sometimes it is also called Northern Bus Station or Chatuchak Bus Station, or Terminal. Quite confusing, but all the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-the-bangkok-bus-lines-bus\">The Bangkok Bus Lines Bus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02.avif 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225.avif 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225@2x.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02.webp 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225.webp 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225@2x.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02.jpg 650w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/02-300x225@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" class=\"wp-image-7598 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Bangkok Bus Lines Review\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a 32-seat bus with a 1 &#8211; 2 configuration. 1 seat on one side of the bus and a double seat on the other. Since there are only 3 seats in a row, you have more space. The seats are wider, and there are fewer seats on the bus. If you want to sit together with your friend or sit alone, you&#8217;d better book online a few days before. This way you can choose your seat.<br \/> The toilet is at the back of the bus. So you want to sit in the front or middle of the bus. The toilet door makes some noise. And it might smell from time to time. But this is the same as in all the buses that come with a toilet in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review.avif 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225.avif 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225@2x.avif 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review.webp 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225.webp 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225@2x.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review.jpg 650w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/bangkok-buslines-review-300x225@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" class=\"wp-image-12364 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Review Bankok Buslines\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The seats do recline quite a bit and have a nice footrest. The footrest is only practical when you are not too tall. If you are over 190 cm, you might look for a 24-seat VIP bus to use the footrest. I am 203 cm and had no problem with this bus apart from the footrest that I can not use.<br \/>You get a blanket and a travel pillow that goes around your neck. Never had one of those on a bus. They are better than a pillow alone, but I am not sure if they wash them all the time, so I did not use them. But you could use your T-Shirt or towel if you want to use them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-entertainment-system\">Entertainment System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines.avif 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225.avif 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225@2x.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines.webp 650w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225.webp 300w,https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225@2x.webp 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines.jpg 650w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hastenteufel.name\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/review-bangkok-bus-lines-300x225@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" class=\"wp-image-12367 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Review Bangkok Buslines\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Great entertainment system.

So the drivers can eat and you can too. Usually, your ticket has a section you can tear from it. This is the voucher for the food. <br \/>Since that is a VIP bus, you can eat in the VIP dining area of the food stop midway to Bangkok or Chiang Mai if you go in the other direction. That means more options and a buffet &#8211; you can eat as much as you like.  Typically, the vast majority of the buses stop at a rest stop, where you have a minimal option of meals.

It might not be a VIP bus, but you should get to Bangkok or Chiang Mai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"7-get-your-bangkok-bus-lines-ticket-here\">Get your Bangkok Bus Lines Ticket here:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/12go.asia\/en\/travel\/bangkok\/chiang-mai\/?z=724876\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\nFrom Bangkok to Chiang Mai\n<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/12go.asia\/en\/travel\/chiang-mai\/bangkok\/?z=724876\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\nFrom Chiang Mai to Bangkok \n<\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>Look for the VIP 24 Bus!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style type='text\/css'>\n\n\t\t.one2go-left {\n\t\t\tfont-size:12px;\n\t\t\tcolor:green;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-right {\n\t\t\tfont-size:12px;\n\t\t\tcolor:red;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-route-info {\n\t\t\tfloat: right;\n\t\t\tfont-size: 10pt;\n\t\t\twhite-space: nowrap;\n\t\t}\n\n\/*\t\t.one2go-route-price,\n\t\t.one2go-route-duration {\n\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\tfont-size:10pt;\n\t\t}\n*\/\n\t\t.one2go-route-price {\n\t\t\tmargin-right: 20px;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tli.country {\n\t\t\tbackground-position: 90%;\n\t\t\tbackground-repeat: no-repeat;\n\t\t}\n\t\t.one2go-trips {\n\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t}\n\t\t.one2go-trips ul {\n\t\t\tpadding-left: 0px;\n\t\t\tmargin-top: auto !important;\n\t\t\tmargin-bottom: auto !important;\n\t\t\tlist-style: none !important;\n\t\t}\n\t\t.one2go-trips li {\n\t\t\tline-height: 16pt;\n\t\t\tpadding-left:8px;\n\t\t}\n\t\t.one2go-timetable {\n\t\t\twidth:100%;\n\t\t\tfont-size:12px;\n\t\t\tborder-spacing: 10px;\n    \t\tborder-collapse: collapse;\n\t\t\tfont-family: \"Open Sans\", sans-serif;\n\t\t}\n\t\t.one2go-timetable td,\n\t\t.one2go-timetable tr.one2go-route-detail th {\n\t\t\tpadding: 6px;\n\t\t\tvertical-align: middle !important;\n\t\t\tborder:1px solid #ccc;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-route-name {\n\t\t\tpadding:15px;\n\t\t\tfont-size:14px;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tspan.one2go-departures {\n\t\t\tcolor: #5d5d5d;\n\t\t}\n\t\tspan.one2go-class {\n\t\t\tfont-weight: bold;\n\t\t\tcolor: #5d5d5d;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\ttr.one2go-route-detail th {\n\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\tcolor: #575757;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-buy-button {\n\t\t\tfont-family: \"Open Sans\", sans-serif;\n\t\t\tfont-size:12pt;\n\t\t\tfloat:right;\n\t\t\t\/*padding-left:10px;*\/\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-route-header {\n\t\t\tfont-family: \"Open Sans\", sans-serif;\n\t\t\tpadding: 8px;\n\t\t\tbackground-color: #30abe0;\n\t\t\tletter-spacing: 0px;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-route-header a {\n\t\t\tcolor: white;\n\t\t\tfont-size: 18px;\n\t\t\tfont-weight: 400;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\t.one2go-route-container {\n\t\t\tpadding: 0;\n\t\t\tborder:  1px solid #30abe0;\n\t\t\tmargin-bottom: 20px;\n\t\t}\n\n<\/style>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"one2go-route-container\">\n\n\n\t<div class=\"one2go-route-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/12go.asia\/en\/travel\/chiang-mai\/bangkok?z=724876&amp;curr=USD\" rel=\"noopener\">Chiang Mai - Bangkok<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"one2go-buy-button\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/12go.asia\/en\/travel\/chiang-mai\/bangkok?z=724876&amp;curr=USD\" rel=\"noopener\">More info \/ Tickets<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<table class=\"one2go-timetable\"><tbody>\n\t\n\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t<td class=\"one2go-route-name\" colspan=\"2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/12go.asia\/en\/bus\/chiang-mai\/bangkok?z=724876&amp;curr=USD\" rel=\"noopener\">Bus Chiang Mai - Bangkok<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"one2go-route-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"one2go-route-price\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t$ 19.97&ndash;31.17\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"one2go-route-duration\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t9h &ndash;
