Pattaya Pattaya to Bangkok..bus service
Posted: Tue November 6, 2007 03:17 PM UTC
My flight from BKK to Singapore is at 0840 AM. Is there bus service at Pattaya by which I can go from PTY in the morning to catch the flight?

The earliest public bus from pattaya to BKK is 5:30 am. (then every 30 mins after that). The ticket price is 97 baht (not sure how much for foreigner). It takes about 2hrs and 20 mins to reach BKK. I think you will definitely miss your flight. Good luck.

You could spend the last night in Bangkok and have a shorter taxi ride to the airport in the morning. METER Taxi from the Sukhumvit area to the new airport will cost around 200 - 300 baht in the morning. Pay the meter charge only - don't bargain the price!

For international flights you have to be there around 2 hours early (or more) so that means at least 0640. Plan on a 25 minute to 45 minute ride to the airport by taxi in the morning.

Bus ride from Pattaya to the Ekamai bus station in Bangkok will cost around 120 baht.

All of my flights home from Bangkok leave real early. I spend the last night in Bangkok because I am afraid of getting stuck in traffic leaving Pattaya and missing my flight! Most of the Bangkok taxi drivers know how to avoid most traffic jams.
