About
Opened in 2006, Suvarnabhumi handles the bulk of Bangkok's international traffic and is the primary hub for Thai Airways. Its soaring glass-and-steel terminal by Helmut Jahn is a landmark in itself. The Airport Rail Link connects the airport to Phaya Thai in about 30 minutes.

Tips
Use the Airport Rail Link (45 THB) over taxis during rush hour. Immigration queues are longest 5–8am and 9pm–midnight — fast-track passes help if your airline offers them.
