Where to change money at good rate in Suvarnabhumi

[LOG54]

Hello

We go "for good" from Thailand in June.

I will obviously close the accounts etc but will then need to keep a reasonable amount of cash for the last week. I never paid attention to change booth in the airport.. can anybody confirm it is possible to change bahts into dollars and where these change booths are located (I imagine should be around arrivals more than departures).. If anyone had an experience is there a company offering better rates or are they all approximately the same.

Thanks a lot.

Have a good weekend

Head down to the basement by the City Line train station - many exchange booths there that give much better rates than the bank booths in arrivals.

Yeah, there are booths near the food court in the basement - saw it on a youtube video.

What accounts are you closing? Are you going to be carrying a large amount of cash with you?

This.

 

I previously jacked Thailand, sold and gave everything away. This was where I changed my remaining baht into pounds. The rates were surprisingly good.

 

(Then I came back)

The "good" booths are on the basement level.  The food court is on the ground level.

Hello..

No.. I send the balance of my accounts 1 week before leaving but as I will keep cash for 1 week with "security" margin should be equivalent to a few hundred dollars

Have a good weekend

"jacked"? What does that mean?

If you got a credit card without transaction fees, that could be an better option.

Context is obviously key...   Jacked...     gave up on....   Jacked it in...
