Public taxi would be around 400 Baht, including surcharge (50 Baht) and tolls (70 to 90 Baht, can't remember exactly).

The airport limos are usually double the taxi fare, so I would say 700 Baht or so.

i have been quoted 65B for the tolls and the limo will be about 1300B each way as i remember .....much more than previously, but well worth any amount after a long ride from overseas...

Bob, I'm glad to hear that the price estimate for limo transfers in down to 950+tolls.

Are you pre-booking? I usually don't but I may do so this time with the confusion of the new airport.

booked the limo service from BKK to Shangri-La .

you cannot complete the booking on their site, as it only has the old rates in the booking process.
they do have on their home page, a link at the buttom for the new rates.

any way, first, registered as a VIP client in their site. then emailed them.

got a confirmation.
price 950% - 10% discount (to VIP clients) = 855 + 65 tolls
so total of 920.

A taxi to the Majestic Grande will cost you roughly 300baht. The cost to get to Suk 11 from the airport is:

191 Taxi
65 Tolls
50 Airport surcharge

Majestic Grande is a little closer than Suk 11.

kathie...our final deal with the marriott (14 nites) includes two way transfers so they will pick us up initially and return us at the end...

i have prebooked (with AAC) for our return from india however....they are charging me 1350B + 65B for airport to marriott, 15 minute stop and then a transfer to the bangkok hyatt (to catch their 10AM shuttle van to hua hin hyatt--500B each btw).. i just find it easier to pre book...
