Bangkok

Want to look for a budget trip? If you are from Malaysia, Bangkok is one of the best choice. Airasia bring you to the Suvarnabhumi International Airport (If you able to grab free ticket - it cost you about RM 250/pax).
Welcome to Bangkok!
After you check out from the airport, you might thinking of just take a taxi to the hotel in downtown. A taxi to downtown might cost you about 600-900Baht. The cheaper way is to take a taxi to On Nut Skyline (BTS) change to skyline. A taxi to On Nut also cost you about 400-500Baht, and BTS to downtown about 35Baht. Some might thinking of just buy an airport express bus ticket which cost you 150Baht to downtown (you can save 10Baht if you buy it in the flight).
The cheapest way and the local people using is take a local bus (you will need to pay less than 80Baht to downtown). Once you check out, take the escalator to the lowest floor, take a free shuttle bus (at the very left hand side of the building) to the airport public bus terminal. (Remember to collect a free map from the information counter and make sure the bus is label with "shuttle bus") After you reach the bus terminal, you have 2 choices to go to On Nut BTS station; by public bus No 552 cost you 35Baht or by van No 552-10 cost you only 25Baht.
You will stop at Tesco hypermarket, here you can start your journey, before that you can actually buy some drink at Tesco ........BTS can bring you to the downtown for 30-35Baht. If you are arriving in the weekend, you can go direct to Chatuchak(the last station call Mo Chit), it cost you only 40Baht.
Enjoy you trip! You can use the same way to return by waiting for the bus or van at the opposite side.
**For hotel booking you can actually choose some budget hotel from the ads beside.
