Vientiane to Sam Neua
No -- if Lao Airlines isn't flying the route anymore then overland is the only means to get there.

Lao Air (not Lao Airlines) flies to Sam Neua a few times a week, they won't have any information on the internet, you'll have to get your ticket from a local travel agent when you arrive in Vientiane

It is a long ride from phonsavan, but it is spectacular. That part of the country has some great scenery. Be sure to take some snacks with you!
