thainet Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Need to do the mandatory Terminal 21 visit today. So would like information please on the carpark entrance(s). Is there one or two entrances. Is one easier, or less traffic than the other. In the carpark itself are all floors available (or some for hotel, ladies etc like Central). Thanks for any and all info received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 There are 2 entrances that I'm aware of. One on Pattaya Neua and one on Second Road. On Pattaya Neua, queue in the second lane then cut in front of everyone just before the entrance to T21. Could save up to 30 minutes of queuing. Once inside the grounds there is a long, slow moving queue to the indoor car park. Just as you reach the car park entrance, the traffic from the 2nd Road entrance joins the queue, saving them 30 minutes of queuing. My advice, use the 2nd Road entrance and don't be afraid to barge into the queue, it's the Thai way. "Do unto them before they do unto you".

johng Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Yes dont use the North road entrance as the queue snakes all the way round the building before getting to the parking garage....2nd road entrance "merges" just before the parking garage..what the queue is like on 2nd road is like is anyones guess.

thainet Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Gents thanks for the fast replies. Sounds like it might be better to park at Lotus or Central Marina and take the 5 minute walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Park at Central Marina on 2nd and walk. Reverse the procedure when finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After my experience, my wife and I agreed that, in future, we would park at Central Marina and hop on a baht bus to T21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabhand Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Have also heard that parking at Tesco Lotus on Nua is also a possible option. Is that a similar distance to T21 as Central Marina? Plus a possible head start as an exit to Sukhumvit, if going that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anythingleft? Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I think they may have been a bit shy on the amount of parking available as well, lets be honest everybody drives everywhere nowadays and not to many people walk...Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marmaduke Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Yes you enter the parking from either North Pattaya Rd or 2nd rd. However there is only one lane that enters into the building. Upon exiting you can get out near the center of the complex and go onto North Pattaya rd. If busy it would take some time to get out since you must share the exiting with the entrance cars for some of the way out. I must say the going in and out of Terminal 21 leaves a lot to be desired.

That's a problem for mankind. It takes 5 minutes to walk from Marina , still some people can't do it . Exercise daily and walk . Good for you.

I live in the area , I walk in 5 minutes from the entrance of Marina (Starbucks) , I do not run. And not much sunburn these days , mostly overcast. Both Thais and foreigners complain too much and can't move their arse. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden rules for Thais (and me): Never break into a sweat. Never expose yourself to the sun. It's what smart people do when living in Thailand.
