It’s a shame that the new Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
does not have enough gates straight out to the planes and they still have to use Busses. I took Air Asia for the first time and it looks like all the low cost airlines are parked 10 min with buss out on the run way. I do not understand why can not make a low cost airport or gate next to the normal one and put the low cost airlines there. It’s lucky we are in Thailand and not in Sweden and have to walk out in the cold to the airline. In Penang Malaysia we could just walk on the plane still we have to walk but did not take any buss.
Another thing that I noticed now is that it took me 30 min to check out from Thailand. The queue at 08.00 in the morning was so long and I thought that the immigration of Thailand should have known by now that all Air Asia planes leave at the same time and they need more staff.
The illegal taxi companies are replaced by licensed once but the price is still a bluff and the methods are the same just the costume are different. Last week I did not see that many but this week there was as many as usual.
The tax free counters when you before immigration have been moved away a little bit so there some place to walk but the toilets are still missing and you have to go look fare for them.
