YANGON, 8 March 2024: Myanmar Airways International (8M) will launch a new service from Yangon to Chiang Mai in North Thailand starting on 3 April, in addition to its Bangkok-bound flights from Yangon and Mandalay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new route, Yangon-Chiang Mai, will be served by a 95-seat Embraer E190 (E90) jet aircraft, which will offer three weekly flights on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n

Flight 8M371<\/strong> will depart Chiang Mai (CNX) at 1445 and arrive in Yangon (RGN) at 1515.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The average roundtrip fare on UB is USD250, with a low of USD185 in March and rising to around USD223 in April. Travel to Myanmar is restricted.
