flights bangkok phuket
Going to Bangkok and Phuket for a total of 7 days (4+3).Is it better to go directly to Phuket from BKK airport?

Is it better to go directly to Phuket after arriving on BKK’s Suvarnabhumi Airport and catch the domestic flight?
Can we take the Air Asia flight from Suvarnabhumi Airport or from a different airport?
Or is it better to take our luggages to a Bangkok hotel, leave it there and then go to Phuket on another day? We’ll have a lot of luggages as we are going to another country afterwards.
Please advise

Sounds like a lot of fun! If your flight to another country leaves from Suvarnabhumi (BKK),you should fly direct to Phuket after arriving in BKK to avoid wasting time since you are not going to be there very long,then visit BKK before leaving Thailand.Either way, you’ll be in the airport 3 times,so whichever end of your trip will afford the shortest layover between flights (into BKK then to Phuket, or from Phuket to BKK, then your flight out of Thailand) would be the best choice.I have done this both ways, and I liked arriving into BKK,then flying directly to Krabi better.Either way, you’ll have lots of fun! Always smile when greeting, and say “Sawadee.”

Phuket Airport flights to or from Bangkok are being disrupted by protests in Bangkok.

A burnt out and washed up police detective who drinks and smokes too much and was just letting life pass me by, hoping one day it would all change and life would get better. On little more than an impulse I decide to leave my well paid job ...

Bangkok Thailand Travel Advice

Sawasdee!

Did you know that Thai people have four square meals a day? That every Thai male is expected to become a monk for a short period in his life? And that the world’s biggest Chinatown is located in Bangkok? These are just some facts that make Thailand an interesting and entertaining destination.

It’s no surprise that Thailand is one of the most visited countries by backpackers and Independent travelers. Everything from the stunning beaches on Southern Islands and beautiful landscapes on the North, to the rich culture found all throughout the country, lures you into experimenting what this country has to offer. Oh, and lets not forget the never-ending wild parties. But as in any other city, there are some facts you would like to know before going there to help you understand things, adhere more easily, or just avoid if possible. So, here are the things I wish I knew before going to Thailand…

And just for fun…
