Bangkok airport-otel transfer

Hello,

I would like to arrange a pick-up service for my girlfirend who will arrive in Bangkok ahead of me. Can anyone recommend a reliable transfer service that is not too expensive? I would like to arrange this for here myself so she doesn't have to deal with a taxi and pay for anything. Thanks.

i always use AAC taxi and lime...their e mail is:
[email protected]

they will hold a sign for her outside of customs...turn to the left as you exit customs...

it will be about 700-800 B to central bkk plus 40-60 B cash for the toll on the toll road (a must)

they prefer cash...there are atm's just behind their office/desk by the taxi exit door...usually it is a mercedes sedan...nice and fast...

your hotel can also send a car for her but it will be much more expensive...

a reg taxi will be 300-400B plus tolls...

taxis will want baht. There are exchange windows open at the airport 24 hours a day as well as ATMs.

in thailand no one will take dollars...as kathie says there are many exchange windows as you exit customs and in customs as well...there are atms near to aac's desk...

they sometimes take a day or two to respond...look on their web site as they have several e addresses...or send it again...

if you do r.t. ask for a 10% discount..
