snoop1130 Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Picture courtesy of Pattaya Mail Travellers have reason to rejoice as the Transport Company Ltd. launches a new shuttle bus service linking Don Mueang International Airport and Pattaya, enhancing connectivity like never before. This latest addition, announced on March 8 by Deputy Transport Minister Surapong Piyachote, aligns with Thailand’s strategic initiative to bolster tourism by improving transport links between key aviation hubs and popular locales. The glossy pink buses, a trademark appearance for the company, start their journey from Sukhumvit Road, directly across the Father Ray Foundation, and head towards the bustling Bangkok entryway. The schedule promises convenience with tickets available at Don Mueang Airport's Terminal 1 and 2 for international and domestic travellers, respectively. In Pattaya, passengers can hop on the bus just opposite the foundation. Whether you're transferring between flights or heading to a sunny beach getaway, this service simplifies travel logistics, saving time and easing commutes. Running from early hours at 5am until 8pm, booking slots can be secured by phone or online, though early adopters should double-check digital service availability. With this move, Thailand not only strengthens its airport connectivity but also opens new avenues for economic stimulus through tourism, marking a significant uptick in regional integration. As the pink shuttle service glides into operation, it paves the way for a seamless travel experience, promising stress-free voyages for residents and tourists alike, reported The Thaiger. -- 2025-03-13 1

If anyone else is wondering where the Father Ray Foundation is, this is the address on Google Maps: 440 หมู่ 9 Sukhumvit Rd, Tambon Nong Prue, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri 20150, Thailand I don't know what หมู่ stands for. The developers of Google Maps apparently also didn't know. 1
NoMoonLogistics Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Perfect, win win. Just make sure they don't get off the bus along the way. Make it free if they promise to only stay in Pattaya. Then the rest of us won't have to look at thier swollen feet and sagging faces. 2 1

geisha Posted March 15 Posted March 15 Ok if you only have a small case. You still have to get from Pattaya to Sukhumvit. For the price of a taxi I wouldn’t bother with a bus. Door to door for me. 1
