Airport Transportation in Bangkok
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Suvarnabhumi Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Our airport transportation in Bangkok takes you from Bangkok's main international airport to hotels and condos in Sukhumvit, Silom and the Khao San Road area, or straight on to the beach towns of Pattaya and Hua Hin.
Bangkok Airport Transfers
Our Bangkok airport transfers begin in the Level 2 arrivals hall, where your driver waits with a name sign just after customs. The hall is long, so the meeting gate number is agreed with you before you land. We track your flight, and the fixed price per vehicle is set before you fly.
Choose a sedan for two or a van for families and groups, and ride door to door to your hotel, serviced apartment or beach resort.
Bangkok Airport Shuttle
Our Bangkok airport shuttle is a private van for your party only: it leaves as soon as you clear arrivals, with no waiting for other passengers and no stops at other hotels. With room for suitcases and extra bags, it suits families, groups and travelers continuing to Pattaya or Hua Hin.
Landing at Bangkok Airport
Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is Bangkok's main international airport, in Bang Phli district, Samut Prakan province, east of the city. It is a different airport from Don Mueang (DMK), so check which one your ticket shows. All passengers arrive through one large main terminal; if your flight parks at the SAT-1 satellite concourse, an underground people mover takes you there.
Screens behind passport control show your baggage belt. After customs you come out into the arrivals hall on Level 2, where pre-booked drivers wait with name signs. Immigration lines are usually longest from about 1 pm to 5 pm.
Bangkok is on Indochina Time (UTC+7) all year, with no daylight saving time. It is hot year-round, with a rainy season from about May to October.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)
Foreign visitors must complete the free TDAC at tdac.immigration.go.th within the three days before arrival. Since 15 September 2026 the visa exemption for most eligible nationalities is 30 days, so check the rule for your passport.
Two Bangkok airports
Suvarnabhumi (BKK), east of the city, and Don Mueang (DMK), in the north, are separate airports. This page books pickups at BKK only.
Meet at your gate number
The Level 2 arrivals hall is long, so keep the gate number from your confirmation handy and look for your name sign there.
Unofficial drivers
Ignore drivers who approach you inside the arrivals hall; your driver will be holding a sign with your name.

At the meeting point in your confirmation. Check the company name before getting in.
- 3
Go straight there
No other stops, no other passengers.
Meet in arrivals
Pre-booked drivers wait with name signs in the arrivals hall on Level 2, just after customs. The hall is long, so agree on a gate number with your driver in advance.

Don't accept a ride from someone claiming to know your booking. Check the company name and reservation details before getting in.

Where will my driver meet me at Suvarnabhumi Airport?
Your driver waits with a name sign in the arrivals hall on Level 2, just after customs. The hall is long, so check the gate number in your confirmation and go straight there.
How far is Suvarnabhumi Airport from Bangkok city center?
Suvarnabhumi is about 25 km east of downtown Bangkok. By car, Sukhumvit and Silom are usually 45 to 75 minutes away, and the trip can take longer in evening traffic or heavy rain.
Is Suvarnabhumi the same as Don Mueang Airport?
No. Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and Don Mueang (DMK) are two separate Bangkok airports. Suvarnabhumi handles most long-haul flights, while Don Mueang serves many low-cost airlines. This page books pickups at Suvarnabhumi only, so check the code on your ticket.
Can you take me to hotels in Sukhumvit and Silom?
Yes. We drive door to door to hotels, serviced apartments and condos in Sukhumvit, Silom and the rest of central Bangkok. Add the building name and full address, including the soi, when you book.
Can you take me to Khao San Road?
Yes. We take you to hotels and guesthouses around Khao San Road. Give the exact property name and address so the driver can find the nearest drop-off point.
Can you take me from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Pattaya?
Yes. A private transfer is the simplest way to reach Pattaya with luggage, straight from the arrivals hall to your hotel or condo, with no change of vehicle.
Can you take me to Hua Hin?
Yes. We drive from Suvarnabhumi to hotels, resorts and villas in Hua Hin. Add the property name and address when you book.
Can you drive me to Don Mueang for a connecting flight?
Yes. Book a transfer with Don Mueang Airport as your drop-off and give your onward flight time. The two airports are on opposite sides of the city, so leave plenty of time between flights.
My flight arrives at the SAT-1 concourse. Where do I go?
Follow the signs to the underground people mover, which takes you to the main terminal. Immigration, baggage claim and the Level 2 arrivals hall where your driver waits are all in the main terminal.
Do I need an arrival card to enter Thailand?
Yes. Foreign visitors must complete the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) at tdac.immigration.go.th within the three days before arrival. Since 15 September 2026, travelers from most visa-exempt countries can stay 30 days, so check the rule for your passport.
Should I buy transportation from agents inside the terminal?
There are official AOT Limousine counters in the arrivals hall and a public taxi queue on Level 1, but booking ahead gives you a driver waiting for you and a fixed price per vehicle. Avoid drivers who approach you inside the hall.
What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?
We track the flight on your reservation and adjust the pickup to its actual arrival. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or the flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking so we can move or cancel the transfer.
Can I book a ride back to Suvarnabhumi Airport?
Yes. Book a departure transfer from your hotel to Suvarnabhumi; drivers drop you at the departures level, Level 4. Give your flight time so the pickup is planned around it.
Is Airport Transportation the same as Suvarnabhumi Airport?
No. Airport Transportation is a private transfer service that takes travelers between the airport and their hotel or address; we are not the airport or its operator. For terminals, airlines and other airport information, see our Suvarnabhumi Airport page.

Tips are not mandatory but are highly recommended; drivers earn them through service quality.
What currencies are accepted?
