There is obviously a lot to know about this.
hi, we’ll be arriving in bkk 12mn. and we will be staying at khao san road for 6 hours. since there’s a 24 bus ride to kha san road, it’ll be cheaper than to take a cab. from the airport, what bus no. we will be riding to get to khao san road? im quite confused. thank you.
your blog really helped us a lot. thanks to you.
Hi Ysa, it’s not a 24 hr bus ride in KSR. It’s only until 12 MD for the airport express bus. You can sleep at the airport (dont worry a lot of tourist do that) until 6am and wait for the aiport express bus. Board the AE2 Suvarnabhumi-Khao San Road (by expressway).Enjoy BKK!

Hi.your blog will be helpful on my trip to BKK. I already booked my flight and hotel. Please assist me since this will be my first time to see the place. Is there a railway transit from Suvarnabhumi to Sukhumvit Rd., Klongtoey-Nua? because in front of my hotel is already BTS station. And I am also Pinay travelling there alone.. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks
hi there angela! =) I;m sorry I hvnt tried the MRT in BKK so I have no idea but once you get off BKK airport, get a free map that will include BTS station map too. have a safe trip! =)
Hi Ms. Pinay backpacker,
We will be staying at Arnoma Hotel in Bangkok. Tried to get information and learned that Airport Express service has been terminated? Any suggestion on how we can get from Airport to the hotel without having to take taxi or transfer from bus to bus? I thought that Airport Express would drop you off in front of the hotel already.
Thanks!
Hi Joji! =) Thanks for the update, last time I was in BKK was summer 2010 so I wasn’t aware that the Airport express bus has been terminated. But they replaced it with Bangkok Airport Train. Kindly check this website for more info: http://www.bangkokairporttrain.com/
