THE HUB
Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport: Built to the replace the aging Don Mueang Airport, Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi International is one of the newest and most modern in the world. Over 50 million people pass through here each year, and thankfully the airport is massive enough to easily accommodate this amount of people. In fact, it’s the fourth largest terminal in the world, so you’ll always be able to find a bit of peace and quiet, no matter how busy it gets. All that being said, traffic has still increased at unexpected levels which can mean queues at security/customs. To try and alleviate this, most low-cost carriers now fly to Don Mueang Airport instead, however Thai remain at the much better Suvarnabhumi. The airport has free WiFi and you can even pick up a free SIM card from TrueMove stores. Taxi's, 24 hour shuttles, and a rail link all make it easy to get to the city. Oh and it's pronounced 'soo-WAHN-ah-poom', which means 'golden land' in Thai.
