pong Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Just to inform those of you interested: 1.since 1/6/11 the Airport Express BUSes have all ceased. Not that they were used that much on the routes most of you wanted-and that's why too! 2. the airport Express TRAINS have lowered their fare to 90 bt/single and 150 bt/return (either quoted as 15 or 30 days valid), untill 31/12. This was 150 bt/single. They have also exTENDED these trains to the far more convenient PHYATHAI stop=end of line (beside the BTS=skytrain), every 30 mins. it is a bit unclear at the mo if they still run ev. 15 mins untill Makksan (that white elefant terminal) or if the halfhourly service is now all (they still also stop Makkasan). THESE trains have good seating and room for luggage. The CITYRail=all stops trains exist as before: ev 15 or 20 mins with all stops at lower price and lower comfort (looks inside like the BTS=skytrain=no luggage space, these trains are often very overcrowded wtih local Thai commuters). It is still possible to pre-check in luggage IF you fly with TG=THAI, up to 3 hrs before departure and only at Makkasan. BKK-air also offered this for a while, but this is withdrawn. Quote
