Homeward bound

[TMax]

Well the trek to Suvarnabhumi was long thanks to a traffic jam on the freeway but I made it ok, booked a car through the hotel for 800 baht. Although the airport is packed to the rafters (I've never seen it this busy before) it didn't take long to get through to the lounge, flying business class the check in, security and immigration was all fast tracked and less than 15 minutes all up. Surprised to see a long line of people outside the entrance and was wondering what the hell was happening and then it hit, they are all the smokers getting a last one in. Now to hope and plan for a more relaxed and enjoyable trip next year, not a lot to report on this trip but will check my notes (memory) and see if I can put something up but I will say it was good to get back to Bangkok after such a long wait.

taxi stopped on the street would take you there for 500 at best if not less ( meter from Silom is around 300 , plus tolls 70-80). No 50 baht airport fee if going TO the airport as far as I know. Just saying as I understand convenience of taxi waiting and ready

 

Waiting for your word about the trip

If you use taxi in the street, often have argument about meter and freeway etc. More relaxing  to use hotel car.
