I am excited about leaving Japan and landing at Don Muang Airport in Bangkok when I started getting bored as "6 half hour is unexpectedly long · · · ...".
If you do not arrange early, it gets crowded, so you go to immigration quickly, it will be a while for a while waiting for your turn.
This time, the start of such a Bangkok trip,From arrival at Don Muang Airport until check-in to the hotelI will introduce you.

Finally arrived! How Thai immigration procedure looks like! What?
Let's hurry to the immigration when you arrive
Well, landing safely! Arrived at Don Muang Airport.
Take care so that there are no forgotten items, get off the plane following the former person without being impatient.
With LCC use, it is quite far from arrival gate to immigration. If the baggage is heavy, there is a cart beside the aisle so it is good to use it.
Previously, when I used Thai international airline and ANA (both Suvarnabhumi airport), it was far ... Regardless of LCC, Thai airport is wide, so it can not be helped.
Now,Immigration is always crowdedSo, if you can withstand the toilet so that you line up as soon as possible, it would be better to have completed the immigration review.
In that case, in that case, we may open a new lane somewhere so that we are surprised to see it, so please pay attention to the movement of staff and open them according to the instructions I will.
When you enter the gate, let 's put on the star so that it will line up in the short counter as much as possible.
I am not asked anything particularly for immigration in BangkokSo, when you pass in your passport and immigration / departure card set, just wait for the stamp to be pushed.
On this occasion,Because I take pictures, stand up to the standing position on the floor, and see the camera with my eyesThank you.
I had my stamp pressed and I was able to enter Thailand safely!
※ For immigration procedures,Procedures for entering and leaving Thailand Please also refer to.
When you receive the package, arrange for exchange, wifi if necessary
In the case of Don Muang Airport, there is a baggage claim place as soon as you leave the immigration,Confirm the lane where your baggage will arrive on the bulletin boardThen I will receive the package.
The airport in Thailand is quite handy, after checking the lane after completing the immigration check, the baggage has already arrived.
Finally, there is a baggage inspection room, but here you can call out randomly when you pass,When prompted, put the suitcase on the table, X-ray inspectionLet's receive.
Arrive in Bangkok! To the arrival lobby
I finally got to the arrival lobby when I passed the baggage inspection site.
There is also a currency exchange office so if you do not have a baht, I will exchange money here.
However,The exchange office in Bangkok has better ratesSo we will change the minimum amount (in the case of airport) 1 ten thousand yen unit here.
I had the last baht in the last time, so there was no need for currency change this time.
In addition, there are wifi related shops, so let's process the person who needs it here.
If you have a wifi terminal and you purchase SIM at a store, it will set you up on the spot.
Although you may purchase the local SIM here, I purchased SIM in amazon in advance, it has already been set up, so I did not leave this.
If you finish it all in Japan, turning on the switch of wifi is convenient when you arrive at the site, you can immediately connect to the net.
【This is the SIM used this time】[AIS] 4G data communication No slowdown! All-you-can-use type repaid SIM for 7 days
What is the trick going by taxi to Bangkok city? What?
Traveling from Don Muang Airport to a hotel in Bangkok, we use a taxi because the railway is not running.
Although it is a method for advanced users, there is also a method of accessing "BTS mochit station" by riding the A1 bus "MORCHIT" of the airport bus. (Price 30 Baht, required time 30 minutes) Also, if the hotel is near the destination of the bus I think that bus use is also good,Taking a suitcase and transferring from the bus to the train is pretty tough, so if you are new to the hotel, you can use a taxi that can go straight to the hotel.
Taxi at the airport taxi counterI will give you the paper as I tell the destination, so I will wait until called and when I get called you will get on the designated taxi.
In the first person,If you do not book a hotel car or a limousine taxi, this is the safest way to travelI think it 's.
How to use a sinking taxi from the airport?
When you come out to the outside street, there is a taxi that sinks you sent to the airport,Difficulty is high for those who are newMaybe, let's talk to the driver.
The taxi in Thailand is different from Japan, so it may be confusing if it is your first time.
How to ride, firstTell the driver where to go, OK..
Prepare paper that wrote the address in Thai or English beforehand and the story goes smoothly.
In the case of a driver who does not know the destination, there are cases to be refused, so at that time look for another taxi.
From here is the point.
Before getting in,Confirm whether "Meter OK?" Will be used and will use the meterIf it is OK, I will get on as it is.
If you do not use a meter taxi here, you will be negotiating the amount. If you are satisfied with the amount after negotiations, you can ride as it is, people who want meters, please look for other taxis.
In Thailand, there are also a certain number of drivers who do not use a meter, especially nothing like ice cream,We will negotiate and decide the amountPeople who are safe for meters do not have to take a taxi other than the meter because they are only working with that person's policy.
Many of the troubles are thought to be due to lack of communication. Let's ride about the destination and the presence or absence of the meter after talking with the driver firmly. If you say "OK" without understanding what the other party said, it will cause trouble.
I do not say anything when getting on and I do not think that there is not much to ask for an outrageous price after arrival,
If you are involved in such a trouble, you can shoot the registration card posted on the passenger seat dashboard with a smartphone and notify the tourist police.
Even if you do not feel bad,Regarding the price, check before riding firmlylet's do it.
In the case of a taxi for price negotiation, it is a bit expensive if it is called the 500 baht to the city, but may be okay depending on the situation, such as when there is no other taxi at midnight.
If it was around 300 ~ 400 Baht, if the traffic jam is prolonged, I think that it may be a reasonable charge as it will be the same even with the meter.
If you use a sinking taxi, keep in mind that there are cases like this and think that you can avoid troubles if you use it.
Also, as soon as you take a taxi or ride it,I will ask if I will use the expresswaySo when I use the expressway I will reply OK.
The highway is crowded in the center of Bangkok, but the general road is often crowded as well.
Depending on the location of the hotel, you can go without using the expressway, so you should check this on the map in advance.
尚,Pay for high-speed fee in cash when riding at high speedAs soon as the tollgate approaches, the driver is asked for money.
If you take a taxi, you should prepare 100 Baht at hand.
In case of city from Don Muang Airport, it passes 2 times tollgate, but it was 70 baht total of 50 baht and 120 baht.
Taxi drivers often do not speak English very well, but basic things can communicate in English with catacombs.
Now, after leaving to the driver, depending on the location of the hotel, I think that you can arrive at the hotel in Bangkok around 40 minutes ~ 1 hours even if you pass the traffic jam.
However ... depending on the location of the hotel, there are things that get caught in traffic in just a few minutes.
If you get caught in a traffic jam with a taxi and you know that the location of the hotel is close, the road in Bangkok has difficulty walking with a suitcase, but without getting lost, descending on the spot,
It is okay to walk.
If you connect wifi, you can safely check your current location with GoogleMap.

Enter the narrow alley from the main street and head towards the hotel.
Finally, I was getting jammed around when I stopped shooting, so I got off in front and headed for the hotel.
Check in to the hotel in Bangkok
It's safe to check in as soon as you arrive at the hotel.
The hotel counter will correspond in English, but you do not have to talk so much.
If you present a coupon issued at the time of reservation or a net reservation, you will print a reservation table and present your passport and will do the procedure a little more.
At this time, you may need a credit card for deposit.
In addition, You are asked to present the credit card you used when making your reservationBecause there is a thing,Make sure to have the credit card you used for bookingPlease help me.
Even if you book a twin bed room at the time of booking, you may be asked whether you want to double it or if you do not have breakfast reservation, you may be asked whether you would like to have breakfast, but do not panic and tell your will Let's see.
When the room key is received, the bellboy will show us to the room.
When you arrive at the room, the bellboy will guide you around the room easily.
Let me give you a chip of about 20 baht when you finish, thank you for bringing the suitcase.
Safely, I got attached to the hotel room!
When it is for convenience in the morning, this is almost the time around 16 time of local time.
If you solve the luggage and settle down, there will be a time difference of 2 hours, so it will be dinner time.
From here, let's enjoy the relaxing resort time of Bangkok!
Then, please enjoy comfortable Bangkok trip!
How was it?
Based on the experience I went to Bangkok last time, I told from Don Muang Airport until hotel check-in.
I think that the rough flow will be like this.
Please prepare for your vacation in Bangkok, get ready, get to the hotel without trouble.
Then, please enjoy comfortable Bangkok trip!
