Private car transfer
from Bangkok to Bangkok Airport

Travelers to Don Mueang (DMK) can also rely on a Daytrip private car transfer to DMK airport and will enjoy a shorter duration of just 30 minutes.

On the Bangkok to BKK transfer, travelers can stop for sightseeing at some of Thailand’s most memorable sites. For instance, the country’s oldest city, Nakhon Pathom, is a great pit stop featuring the world’s tallest chedi and an ornate palace. Or, the iconic Maeklong Railway Market allows visitors to explore a bustling market built along a fully operational railway track. Visitors can shop, enjoy a final taste of the local cuisine, and watch as trains roll right through the market.

Daytrip also offers private transfers from the Bangkok Airport to the city center, starting your trip off in style and comfort with stress-free door-to-door transport. Book online here!

The Gates S are located in the satellite building, conveniently connected to the main terminal by an automated train system. If you're transferring to these gates, be sure to allow extra time for the short ride to SAT-1, ensuring a smooth connection at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport. Plan ahead for a stress-free journey!

The airport also has 4 levels, with arrivals on the second floor and departures on Level 4. You can explore the layout of the whole airport here.

On average, travelers can expect to spend around 90 minutes navigating the airport before their flight, though it can take closer to 3 hours when large crowds create congestion at security and immigration.

Choose a private transfer

For the most elevated travel experience, cover the distance with a Daytrip private car transfer. This is a particularly convenient option for travelers with kids, as it's possible to book cars with child seats. A private journey also allows parents to sit back and relax instead of facing the stress of navigating public transport with children in tow. With child seats and door-to-door service, Daytrip ensures maximum safety and comfort for even your littlest travelers.

Set off early

Be sure to get an early start to make the most of your drive from Bangkok to BKK Airport. When you schedule your ride early, you leave yourself more time for sightseeing and can reach the airport with plenty of time to spare, even in heavy traffic. This is also important for travelers with children to avoid the added stress of rushing at the airport.

A private transfer is a great option for airport transport. It provides more flexibility than a bus timetable and enables you to choose a departure time that aligns with your flight time and preferences.

Explore Thailand on the way

Perhaps the best part of a Bangkok to Bangkok airport transfer is the opportunity to explore more of Thailand on your own schedule. Passengers can add sightseeing stops to their trip at booking, including at iconic locations such as Maeklong Railway Market or Nakhon Pathom, Thailand’s oldest city.

This is an added benefit of taking a Daytrip private transfer, as you aren’t restricted to a bus timetable or prevented from making stops for the duration of your trip.

Bangkok to BKK by car

It is possible to drive yourself from Bangkok to BKK, but travelers should be aware that the cost of a rental car can be fairly high during peak travel times. Taxi fare is around $15 on average to and from the airport, while a rental car can be more than $63 per day not including fuel fees.

Beyond the cost, a rental car can be more hassle than it’s worth during your time in Thailand. A taxi can be a feasible alternative, but bear in mind you likely won’t be able to schedule your ride in advance and may face long wait times.

Bangkok to BKK by public transport

For the budget traveler, taking a bus or shared shuttle from the city to the airport may be the most cost-effective option. A bus ticket costs around $5-$9 depending on the bus company and your departure bus station, with the cheapest fare available online in advance.

Group shuttles are also available on this route from various companies for around $9-$15 per seat. However, the journey will likely take longer than with a private transfer, as you will make additional stops on either a shuttle or bus.

The airport offers 50 dining options, including local Thai establishments and international comfort foods. It also has hundreds of shops, ranging from luxury destinations like Burberry and Cartier to more accessible gift shops for last-minute duty-free souvenirs.

The airport also features independent lounges run by Miracle Lounges for travelers on any airline. For further relaxation, visitors can enjoy a Thai massage at the Miracle Transit Hotel spa on Level 3 of the airport.

For families, the airport’s free wifi and playing areas are perfect for keeping children entertained before long flights.
