Help me find bus or shuttle from Phuket Airport to Krabi Airport or town?
I have been searching everywhere for bus timetables to get from Phuket Airport to Krabi Airport or Krabi town.
I'm arriving in Phuket at 3 pm on Monday August 9 and can't afford the private taxi. Thanks for your help!

Taxi would cost about 2,300, getting back to Phuket Airport from Krabi is easier as you can find tour agents and get a seat on a van.
Otherwise for bus you need to head into Phuket Town and that means taxi from airport to Phuket town, buses run late so you would not have a problem, then from Krabi Town hop on a Songthaew to get to where you are staying. But don't expect to get to your room until perhaps 10 pm !
You would save perhaps 1,200-1,400 but makes a lot of difference to journey time.
I agree perhaps contact where you are staying. Lots of vans etc go 'from krabi to Phuket airport' the tricky thing is getting a way to use them back to Krabi.
Of it was me I would not go the round-about way of taxi to town, then bus, then getting to where you are staying.
You are wasting the whole afternoon and evening and that should have some 'value'.
Look at your budget, see where you can save B 1,000 along the way and move that saving over and grab a car service ! That is what I would do.
