Hi guys, looking at airasia now. why fly to bangkok they put don mueang? need some help thanks

Airasia only land at domestic airport, not land at international airport.
Prefer international airport, because got airport shuttle city line to city area such as pratunam and sukhumvit.

btw what are the best timing to get? like i wont waste a day there . thanks in advance the tickets now all show SGD99.00 to me.. sian

Think normally they would just have promo ticket anytime they like. For example, some budget airline have promo during morning, some during afternoon

Don mueang is their domestic airport. Once pass arrival gate, there is an official taxi stand outside that runs meter. Counter person will ask u where u go, then write down on paper for u. Cost me ard 250 baht to reach pretunam area.

I prefer don mueang, international airport took 1.5 hrs to clear custom when I arrived. Mega crowded. Dislike.

yeah agree with some here....
first compare jetstar, tiger or even thai airway. as at times, those atas airlines might be cheaper too!
second, go agoda.com to book hotels. many good hotels around pratunam area. like baiyoke or glow...

think ethopian flying to bangkok from Sin soon this Dec onwards.
Yeah, booked SQ to bangkok 196 two way net this year May travel. Then two yrs ago, also took SQ 197 two way net fly during Dec travel, because that time think flooding there, which is not that jialat until what people said.

Hotel Bookings, would not book from agoda. Firstly, most hotels no free cancellations, secondly once applied discount promo vouchers, can save around few dollars to 50 dollars per night or more as compared to their hotel price

For example, my Grand Diamond booked from expedia, 207 for 3 nights for two ppl. Then further used expedia discount, become 166 dollars But agoda are selling at 297 without any discount voucher.

Pratanum City Inn 3 star hotel , review not very good. Location not near to pratunam market, around 10 - 15 min walk. Tiger last week have promo, 110 two way net, the hotel only about 25 - 30 pppn
So 4d3n is about 110 + 75 => 185

Stayed before baiyoke suite, 55m2, better to stay executive room.
Standard suite are very old, breakfast still ok, at level 42.
