Hi,

I have a transit for five hrs in suvarnabhumi airport.

Is there any entertainment or time passing inside the airport?

Can anyone help me pls?

If I had 5 hours I'd probably go into town.

There's absolutely NOTHING to do at the airport, and isn't very comfortable either. So especially if you can't use a lounge then I'd have a couple beers in town.

You can't leave the secure area on transit. All you can do is make the most of it.

Shopping, Bars, Coffee Shops.

You can't leave the secure area on transit.

Why not? The only people who can't leave are those who don't qualify for the visa waiver (simple stamp in passport) or a visa. Anyone else is free to leave, but of course you might have to re-check in and may have to pay the 700 THB departure tax.

Some people like myself, if they were coming back, might only have a single entry non-imm visa or re-entry visa for Thailand, and so wouldn't necessarily want to blow that on just a few hours' entry.

But I sympathise because unless you qualify to use a business or first class lounge, the transit area at Suvarnaphum is quite uncomfortable, especially compared to the old transit area in Don Muang.
