Time From City To Airport?

[uvarob]

Hi everyone,

I'm visiting Thailand for the first time in March, and I have a domestic flight from BKK to Chiang Mai that leaves at 2040 on a Wednesday. What time would I need to leave the city to check in on time? Also, how much time is recommended for check-in for domestic flights?

Thanks for your help!

I don't think anyone will be able to give you an answer if you don't tell us where in Bangkok you will be staying.

I'll most likely be staying in the Old City area, though I haven't booked anything yet.

My experience for that time of day (weekday) negates adding one hour plus (because of trafic) to the standard two hour arrival check in time making it a total of 3 hours; this covers your ass for traffic situations and any other nonsense. That is leaving from Pleonchit area which is pretty central in the city of BKK, any furhter west of that point, say towards the river, then add an additional 30 minutes...

Thanks,
