Useful shops in the departure hall of Don Muang Airport

A pleasant feature of Don Muang Airport is the presence of useful stores of the Seven Eleven grocery chain, which are located not at the exit from the airport’s arrival hall, as at Suvarnabhumi Airport, but inside the security check area of ​​the airport, in the waiting room next to the boarding gates.

This arrangement of stores means that you can take water and food on board the plane, purchased at a normal price, and not at a 5-10 times inflated price, as is usually the case at airports. The latter is especially important when flying with low-cost airlines, such as AirAsia, where you will not be offered free water or food on board.

Cafes and restaurants at Don Muang Airport

Cafes and restaurants at Don Muang Airport are located in two places, before and after passport control. Most of the restaurants are located on the second floor of the departure area of ​​Terminal 2, before passport control.

Don Mueang Airport Bangkok: interesting facts

Don Muang Airport in Bangkok was opened more than a hundred years ago - in March 1914. Only in 2006 did it lose its status as Thailand's main airport to the ultra-modern Suvarnabhumi Airport, which began to accept almost all international flights. However, in 2012, in order to relieve congestion at the main airport, Don Mueang again began to accept individual charter flights from other countries, transport aircraft and many flights of budget airlines that operate both international flights and domestic flights.

Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok has a glorious centuries-old history, i.e. The time period for such an object is considerable. However, there is no need to worry that the airport is in poor condition and refuse airline flights flying in and out of this airport. During its "airport life" Don Mueang was reconstructed several times to meet modern requirements. And the last reconstruction was completed relatively recently - in 2012. By the way, one of the reasons for the reconstruction was the large-scale flood in Thailand, which temporarily put Don Mueang airport out of action.

As a result, the airport underwent a thorough reconstruction, and not only the airport terminals were renovated, but also the runways, which is important for ensuring flight safety. In general, the planned reconstruction of the airport is still ongoing, but in order not to create inconvenience for passengers and flights, the renovation process of this transport hub is planned to be completed no earlier than 2017. As a result, Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok will be able to accommodate even the largest passenger aircraft, for example, the Airbus A-380, and its passenger traffic should be about 12 million people per year.

Location and features of Bangkok Don Muang Airport

Don Muang Airport is located approximately 30 kilometers north of the center of the Thai capital, which is why you will have to travel from Don Muang to Pattaya not directly, but with a transfer. As can be seen from the diagrams of Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok below, it is quite modest in size by the standards of modern airports and has a simple layout, so it will be difficult to get lost there.

The building has two floors and is divided into two terminals. On the ground floor there is an arrivals hall, numerous fast food establishments, including international chains, Internet cafes, and currency exchange offices, which are traditionally not the most profitable at the airport. Also on the ground floor of Don Muang Airport you can find a first-aid post, car rental offices, an information desk, a taxi ordering counter and some other services.

Accordingly, on the second floor of Bangkok Don Mueang Airport there is a departure hall: check-in counters for flights, a customs control area, a departure waiting room, and a VIP lounge for passengers. There are also a tourist information office, several catering establishments, Duty Free shops, bank branches with currency exchange, toilets, shops with local souvenirs, etc. For the convenience of airport passengers, the floors are connected by escalators located both in the center of the terminal and on its opposite sides.

Airlines flying from Don Mueang Airport

Currently Bangkok Don Muang Airport used for domestic flights (between cities in Thailand) by airlines such as Nok Air, Orient Thai, One-Two-Go and Air Asia. The latter, by the way, in addition to domestic flights, also carries out international passenger air transportation, delivering numerous travelers to neighboring countries at quite affordable prices using a large number of modern airliners.

Please note that when purchasing air tickets for flights to Asia with a transfer in Thailand, you will have to get from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Don Mueang Airport if you do not arrive in Bangkok on an Air Asia plane, from there - on a specified plane airline, which since October 2012 has operated all its flights only from Don Mueang Airport. The same circumstance requires citizens of some countries to have a Thai visa in their passport, because without it it will not be possible to leave Suvarnabhumi Airport.

The geography of flights operated from Don Mueang Airport is quite extensive. Wishing , to the province of Krabi, to the island of Phuket, to Chiang Mai and other cities of the country cheaply, you will most likely have to use the services of the airlines mentioned above, especially Nok Air and Air Asia. How best to get to this airport from various places in Bangkok - read in the next section.

Don Muang Airport: how to get there by taxi, train, bus

Traditionally, the easiest, but also the most expensive way to get to Don Muang Airport in Bangkok and from this airport to anywhere in the capital is a taxi, which you can stop right on the street or use the service of ordering a taxi by phone (you can read more about this in a separate article.

To take a metered taxi to the city, you can go to a special taxi ordering counter at the airport and even order a taxi in advance by filling out a form on the airport website. You can also negotiate with the taxi driver who has just dropped off passengers in the departure area. The approximate cost of a trip from the city center to the airport and back is 350-400 baht, and the travel time is about half an hour, if there are no major traffic jams along the way.

IN Don Muang Airport You can also get there by train. A couple of minutes walk from the airport terminal exit is a small train station with the same name Don Mueang (Thais often say Don Mueang). Trains operate between this station and Bangkok's main railway station, Hua Lamphong, from 06:00 am to midnight, approximately once every hour. However, for some reason, trains are often delayed and do not follow the schedule, so if you want to get to the airport by train, take this into account and have extra time (a couple of hours) in reserve so as not to be late for check-in for your flight.

This train is the cheapest way to get to and from Don Muang Airport into the city, so during rush hour the trains can be crowded with locals and take advantage of pickpockets and beggars, some of whom are not actually homeless, but " professional beggars." In order to quickly cover the distance between Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports, you can use several types of transport, including free ones. I already wrote about this in detail in one of the sections of the article, so I won’t repeat it here: anyone interested can read it at the link.

Many popular tourist destinations in Bangkok are connected to Don Mueang Airport by bus, so below are some of the main bus routes.

★ Bus number 59. With its help you can easily get to the main square of Bangkok - Sanam Luang, located in the historical part of the capital. For those who are not in the know, I’ll explain: this square for residents of Thailand has approximately the same meaning as Red Square in Moscow for citizens of the USSR. It is next to this square that the Grand Royal Palace and the famous temples of Bangkok are located. Another advantage of bus number 59 is that. that it passes near the Democracy Monument and the famous Khao San Street in Bangkok - home to a large number of inexpensive hotels and a hangout of backpackers from all over the world.

★ Bus No. 504. Using this bus, you can get to Lumphini Park (Lumpini Park or Lumpini), get off near the central square of Siam (Siam), as well as in the Silom area (Silom), where you can change to the line .

★ Bus No. 513. Notable for the fact that it can be used to get from Don Mueang Airport to the Eastern bus terminal, Ekamai (Bangkok Eastern Bus Terminal), which is often used by tourists for independent travel around Thailand.

In order to use one of the described bus routes, you need to exit the Don Mueang Airport terminal in Bangkok and walk a short distance to the stop. The latter is located on the right side of the highway near the terminal building. A good landmark should be the elevated pedestrian crossing, under which the buses stop. Just don't cross the road if you plan to leave towards the center of Bangkok, because... The buses you need will stop from the airport. Of course, using the bus routes described above, you can, and vice versa, from various points in the city get to Don Muang Airport in Bangkok.

A good alternative to Krabi Airport is Phuket International Airport, which is located on the island of the same name, but is about two hours away by car from Krabi. It is worth considering this airport for the reason that it currently receives many more international scheduled flights and charters, including charters from Russia. Therefore, in some cases, it is more profitable to fly to the island of Phuket even if you want to relax in Krabi or Ao Nang, because cheaper air tickets may well compensate for the cost of transport to Krabi.

Don Muang Airport (DMK) is located approximately 30 km north of central Bangkok and was the city's main airport until 2006. At the moment, Nok Air and Orient Thai companies are represented at the airport, which serve domestic flights. The international terminal houses Air Asia and charter flights. From October 1, 2012, all Air Asia flights from/to BKK (Suvarnabhumi Airport) have been moved to DMK (Don Mueang Airport). It's worth keeping this in mind if you're on a connecting flight, as all international flights not served by Air Asia will depart from BKK (Suvarnabhumi).

Official prices for transport from/to Don Muang Airport

Taxi from Don Muang Airport

The public taxi rank is located outside the arrivals area (don't be fooled by taxi companies with kiosks located in the waiting area) and is probably the best choice if you need to get into the city, and after 23:00 it's your only choice. This airport has the same system as in Suvarnabhumi: If the line at the taxi check-in counter is too long, or you need a larger vehicle, you can order a so-called limousine taxi from the check-in counters in the terminal. This way you will get a slightly better car, and the cost of the trip will almost double (500-600 baht). Ignore the barkers on the street and do not get into a taxi with white license plates - such drivers are not allowed to carry passengers.

Don Muang Railway Station

Opposite the covered walkway from the airport is Don Muang Train Station. Tickets to Hualamphong Train Station in central Bangkok cost 5 baht and are sold from ticket machines. The cheapest way to get from the airport to Bangkok is by train, but it's not for the faint of heart: timetables change frequently, the shabby passenger carriages are often haunted by beggars, and few people travel late at night. However, taking the train from Don Mueang Airport will immediately take you out of the glittering world of airports (which are, in fact, not much different from each other) into a distinctive Thai environment, without having to venture during the daytime. At each train station, vendors enter the train and sell food and drinks.

Buses between Don Mueang and Suvarnubhumi airports

Free airport buses run from and to DMK and BKK Suvarnabhumi airports. They run every half hour and will take you from one airport to another in about an hour, depending on traffic density. The signs indicating the location of the bus stop are not very clear, but to get there you just need to turn left when exiting the terminal building (the taxi line will be behind you) and walk to the end of the building/sidewalk. If you have time, this is a cheap way to get into the city from DMK - and once in Suvarnabhumi you will have much more choice of transport.

Buses from Don Muang Airport to Bangkok

In addition, several public buses stop at the airport. You just need to follow the signs leading to the bus stop. If your back is to the airport, you will see a stop on the right side of the building (i.e. north of the airport). It is located on the highway, directly under the pedestrian bridge above it. The bus to central Bangkok can be boarded on the same side of the road as the airport, so there is no need to cross the highway. It is recommended to use the following routes:

• The air-conditioned 504 bus will take you to CentralWorld at Ratchaprasong Junction (near Siam Square), as well as to Lumphini Park and Silom, where you can transfer on the Skytrain.
• Bus 29, with or without air conditioning, will take you to Hualamphong Train Station, stopping along the way at the Victory Monument and Siam Square. You can also get off at the Chatuchak Weekend Market stop, where you can transfer to the Skytrain.
• The air-conditioned No. 59 bus will take you to Sanam Luang Square in the old town of Rattanakosin. This is a very long route as Rattanakosin is very far from the airport.
• Bus route 510 to the Victory Monument and the southern bus station.
• Bus route 513 to Sukhumvit Street and the Eastern Bus Station.
• Bus 59 to Khao San Rd. and Democracy Monument.

It must be remembered that some of the listed buses do not cover the entire route. Such buses are called “additional buses” (Thai รถเสริม “rot serm”). On these types of buses, there is a red sign at the front with the final stop written on it (in Thai, of course). Read it before you get on the bus. You can ask the local residents at the stop or the bus conductor for the name of the stop.

Hello, independent travelers or those who are preparing to become one. In this article I want to talk about Bangkok airports and how to more conveniently move between them. And also the most convenient way to get from Suvarnabhumi Airport to the city. Not everyone knows that there are two airports here and that they are located quite far from each other; this must be taken into account when planning transfers. I have already told my friends several times about what and how, now I decided to explain everything in more detail here.

Bangkok has two airports: one international, Suvarnabhumi or Suwannapbum (BKK), which means “golden land” in Thai, the second - for local flights, low-cost airlines and international flights within Southeast Asia - Don Muang or Don Muan (DMK) - the last option is more correct if you want the taxi driver to understand where to take you.

Both airports are outside of Bangkok. Suvarnabhumi is located approximately 30 km east of the city, Don Muang is 20 km north of it.

Don Muang began operation in 1914, based at the Thai Air Force base and was the country's main airport. By the way, it is still partially owned by the Air Force. In 2006, the new Suvarnabhumi Airport was opened, in which 3.8 billion US dollars were invested, and which was intended to completely replace Don Mueang. Now it receives up to 45 million passengers a year. However, it could not cope with the flow of passengers and by 2012 it was decided to leave two airports and partially relieve Suvarnabhumi by moving low-cost companies to Don Mueang.

What if you need to get from one airport to another? To make it easier for passengers to travel, a shuttle bus has been launched between these airports, which is a fairly comfortable bus with air conditioning. It transports passengers from one airport to another for free, you just need to show your plane ticket from another airport where you are going to take the shuttle. There is a special counter at the bus stop, you show them a printout or a ticket on a tablet and they give you permission to use the bus. The first bus departure is at 5 am at the same time, from both airports and with an interval of one hour they run until midnight. The bus travels quickly on toll roads; even at rush hour, the journey from one airport to another takes about an hour. I did the math myself, the bus stopped three times and the driver paid in cash for travel on the toll road. I noticed the speed, the bus travels 80 km/h most of the way. This way of getting there, in my opinion, is the most effective and fastest, especially in traffic jams. At night the only option is to take a taxi.

How to find this bus? If you are at Suvarnabhumi Airport, you need to go to the passenger terminal platform on the 2nd floor, Gate 3 (Passenger Terminal 2 nd Floor, Gate 3) There are diagrams everywhere at the airport, you can figure it out. In Don Muan (Don Muang) the bus waits on the ground floor, at the exit (Passenger Terminal 1 nd Floor), pay attention to the signs. You can also contact airport employees or the information desk, they are always helpful.

If you need to go to the city, then to get to Bangkok from Suvarnabhumi you can use the Airport rail link. This is an elevated metro that runs from the airport, and the final station, Phaya Thai, is already in the city center. Runs from 6 a.m. to midnight. At the same time, there are two types of Red line trains - red trains - express and City line - blue trains, regular ones.

The final stop of the express train is two stations earlier than the regular one, this is Makkasan station. At this station you can change to the underground metro. The blue train goes to Phaya Thai. This station is also a transfer station for the Sky train, another type of skytrain. Express travels to the final destination in 15 minutes, regular – 30 minutes. The station where you can board these trains is on the lowest floor of the airport. You can go down by escalator, or by elevator. A regular ride costs 45 baht, an express train costs 150 baht.

Airport rail link diagram, blue line - metro, green - sky train (overground metro)

You can also take a taxi or bus from both airports to Bangkok. All information about bus routes is available on the official websites of airports. But during rush hour you can get stuck in traffic jams.

MagicFood, an inexpensive cafe in Suvarnabhumi

If you are waiting for a flight at Suvarnabhumi Airport and you are hungry, there are two Family Mart stores in the departure area on the 4th floor where you can buy rolls, dried fruits, chocolates, coffee, etc. And on the 1st floor on the right, if you stand with your back to the exit from the airport, there is a good place, Magic food, where you can eat inexpensively. If prices are not important to you, on the 3rd floor there are cafes for every budget.

If you can add to this article or any data is outdated, write about it in the comments.

I hope this information helps you. Happy travels!
