Is it better to take taxi/airport transfer or train to the city?
Just worried about traffic jam.

Go pratunam from airport sure jam one. What time you land? Take ARL no jam but need to walk or take taxi to your hotel.

if u worry jam, can book a taxi or use grab, then u wont need to worry

Basically the whole bangkok city area will be jam most of the time.
If afternoon land, to pratunam is about 400b, sukhuvmit is 300+b
takes about 25 to 35 minutes one way

if u stay at sathorn or riverside area, would be best to book a driver
takes about 40+min to an hour one way with some jam to heavy jam ...

Pratunam area afternoon no Jam? Will be landing in the afternoon on Sunday.
Thinking is it better to take ARL to Phaya Thai station and then take taxi/grab from there instead.

Pratunam jam most of the time ... if u going alone u want to save on the transport, can take arl ... if u walk from arl to pratunam, might be faster than taking cab or grab maybe ... the jam can be very bad

Yup, if alone or couple travel light, take ARL then walk. I done that many years ago, walk to arnoma.

used to walk from arl ... kinda far 10+ min walk one way , somemore must drag the luggage, very mafan since the road is not smooth ... very rocky

If he is going alone I think its fine. At least at explore explore a bit. Rather than sit inside taxi using phone.

Most people would take a cab or grab ... grab price should be <100b during afternoon, 100+b in the evening perhaps ...

some more walking under the hot sun ... can be quite tiring ...
if u have luggage or have just shopped finish, your hands would be full of things to carry back to hotel ...
