Can I take my rental car from Krabi Airport onto the car ferry to Koh Lanta?

Most major rental providers at Krabi Airport permit boarding the Hua Hin Pier vehicle ferry to Koh Lanta. However, you must notify the desk at pickup to ensure marine transit coverage and secure written authorization in the contract.

The most convenient fueling options are the Shell station located 2.1 km west of the airport on Route 4 towards Krabi Town, or the PTT Station 3.2 km east in Nuea Khlong. Keep the printed fuel receipt as timestamped proof of return fill.
