Airport Rail at last


Since the opening of the new Savarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok a long awaited rail link to the city is nearly ready.

The SRT will run from the Airport to the centre of Bangkok and then on the the BTS (Skytrain) and the MRT (Underground). At the moment it is quite a drag into town by an expensive taxi ride, This ride can also be dangerous to your health. Most of the driver have skant respect for other peoples lives.

The fare will only be 150 baht and will run every five minutes, if they operate as good as the BTS and MRT then the ride should be excellent. I can't wait to try the new train....

The official opening will be on the Kings Birthday on December 5th.
