on my may/june 04 trip i used them about 10 times...they are fantastic...the cars are comfortable and the drivers very nice, although some do not speak lots of english...some also drive very fast but they are good drivers and careful...some also drive slow...and they are also good drivers...

you will be pleased with them...they usually want cash for payment...there are atms very near to their stand...you find them by turning left out of the main customs door...if someone is not there with a sign with your name on it, continue down the hall toward the taxi door and they are there on the left...

mostly i have used them from airport to the city and return but in 2002 they drove us to hua hin..

their prices are excellent...ask for a discount if they have not offered you one...

Is it better to reserve in advance if I need a transfer from the airport to our hotel in Bangkok? Does AAC Limousines have a webpage?

I was told their page is www.aac-limo.com but there's a problem with it and I haven't been able to get the site to open. Hopefully someone can give us an update.

I've gotten explicit directions from this site on finding my way through the BKK airport, but this is my first trip to Thailand. Although I don't have a problem travelling in Asia (Tokyo, Seoul, Taipei) it would be great to start the trip off with a meet-and-greet, rather than exploring the airport.

as most flights arrive from usa late at nite, it is welcome to have a greeting and not have to deal with the many salespeople who descend upon you after you leave customs...at least the first time...don't be polite...just keep walking until you see your name...

i would pre-book....i do not know of a web-site, just the e address

there are also other limo companies, but aac is excellent...

A-ha! Found my own answer, after searching a little more. Their new site is www.airporttaxithai.com, email is [email protected]

Thanks rhkkmk for all the info
they are only charging us 2400 baht for bangkok airport-pattaya-bangkok hotel then back to airport seems a good price

steandtracey Oct 19th, 2004 01:31 PM

the website we used was the same as cjackson found airporttaxithai.com

rhkkmk Oct 19th, 2004 06:21 PM

steand...i think that price is fabulous...

rhkkmk Oct 19th, 2004 06:23 PM

are you sure that is not one way...they charged me 2600 B from jw marriott to hua hin one way....i think it is about an equal distance...

JamesA Oct 19th, 2004 07:07 PM

I was going to come in with the website but you already have it, I agree that you should double check that rate as being 'return' as B 2,400 return is B 1,200 each way and that would be lower than a normal small taxi, so I would double check that certainly. B 2,400 one way would be a decent price for a limo service( i.e Merc or other large sedan )

rhkkmk Oct 19th, 2004 07:17 PM

if you look at it that way 1200 is what i was paying round trip airport to hotel for bkk only this summer with them

orgy7 Oct 19th, 2004 09:05 PM

lol.. everyone knows my litle regard for limo services. but when I saw the post of 2400 baht bkk(airport)- pattaya - bkk. I even thought, that cant be correct that almost looks like a true value.

steandtracey Oct 20th, 2004 11:30 AM

yes you are right RHKKMK , i didnt make it clear on my last message it 2400 bhat for each of us therefore working out at 4800 but also with 10% discount still a good price i think

mrwunrfl Oct 20th, 2004 04:17 PM


Why did you pass up "AAA Limousines" and "AAB Limousines"?
Just wondering.

rhkkmk Oct 20th, 2004 05:25 PM

yes that is a good price...imo
