How long should we allow to get to BKK?

Our flight leaves BKK at 8am. Since it is international I am assuming we should arrive at least a couple of hours early. How long should we expect it will take to get from the Sheraton Orchid to BKK at around 4 or 5am on a Sunday?

Thanks for the help.

It will take you under 30 minutes.

I most recently did that in November.

Thanks Kathie. Should we have any problems getting a taxi at 4am?

I always have a "limo" arranged (AAC or AOT), but that's because I have so much luggage to take home! I would alert the conceirge that you will need a taxi at a particular hour, but it should not be a problem.

We usually take a taxi about that same time and it is never a problem. Like Kathie said just tell the front desk and they will hook you up. Make sure they use the meter on the way back to the airport, that is where it is the biggest pain for us to get them to turn it on!
