January 30, 201214 yr I will be taking 6yr old daughter some places that will require BTS. Is there special fare or free for young children? While i'm at it, does MRT have special fare? Normally on the coach buses, they can sit in your lap no charge. "2nd best time to plant a tree is today." Sent from ThaiVisa app.

January 31, 201214 yr Most stations have a ruler sticker next to the machines so you can check the height of the child/
January 31, 201214 yr For MRT, children up to 14yo and up to 90cm will have free ride - Those up to 14yo but between 91 and 120 cm will get discount rate. http://www.bangkokmetro.co.th/ticket.aspx?Menu=13&Lang=En For BTS, no discount rate, just free for children up to a certain height (I think 90cm).
January 31, 201214 yr If she has a student ID card or you can convince them she is a student then she gets a discount but then you need to spend 100 baht for a card.

Found on the MRT Website Additional privilege: 1) Children who is not more than 14 years old and is not more than 90 cm. tall will be entitled to the free ride. 2) Children who is not more than 14 years old and 91-120 cm. tall will be entitled to the discount rate.
