I haven't heard of this one. How much? And how often do they run? Do they go right into the Terminal drop off area? How long does it take? Is it direct or does it do many pickups along the way?

Preferred. Assuming you have a flight booking from DM.

Do you need to show any ticket or boarding cards?

I have used it once. As far as I know it runs every hour. Went direct to the terminal with a 5 minute petrol stop near the airport. About 2 and a half hours and 300 baht maybe less.

Yes you have to for the free shuttle.

Printed ticket or something on the phone.

They note the flight number on a paper list.

I guess it's for statistics and billing the airlines for the service?

I do not  advertise "workarounds".

So do you have to prove you have both landed and will be taking off?  It would be risky to be refused when you have a flight to catch.

If I understood your question:

no just a flight number out of Don Mueang (if you are at Suvarnabhumi).

Never asked how I got to Suvarnabhumi.

It's not a big issue, just writing down flight number.

Where do you find the free shuttle at Suvarnibhumi

It's on the arrival level 2 ("2nd floor") in front of gate 3. So if you arrive by bus at Suv. you will likely be dropped off at level 4 (departure). So down two levels.

Under good traffic conditions it takes less than an hour over the tollway.
