stumiller Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Hello all, I'm going away in a couple of weeks for 3 nights, departing from CNX and I would like to know other people's experiences about the parking of motorbikes/scooters at the airport. Is it secure? Has anyone had success or problems parking there for a few nights? It's difficult for me to get a song thaew because I live too far from busy roads and I don't fancy lugging all my bags a km or two! Otherwise, are there any reliable taxi numbers I could call to reserve a morning cab? All advice/suggestions would be much appreciated. Cheers, Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDH Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yes, I left mine there for 24 days once, no problem! Don't sweat the Songteaw or the ripoff no meter taxi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricklev Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) Left my Honda wave at the airport three days a week for two years with never a problem. I did wrap a big chain up from the rear tire and over the seat and lock it though. Chain and lock cost about 200 baht.

babyjesus Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 left my bike at airport for 15 days February 2013. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbamboo Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) Anywhere in CM is much safer than BKK and points south. Edited April 28, 2013 by bigbamboo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumiller Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Thanks very much for the replies so far... Seems like it should be pretty safe, but I know that bike theft is fairly rife here and I don't know how much, if any, security there is at the airport. Any negative examples from there?

Also, where would be the best place to get a cheap chain/lock? Big C, I guess...anywhere else? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greeen Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I've left my bike there many times with no problems at all and it's free for motorbikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidMavec Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Left mine there on three occasions, five days a pop, no problems at all. Of course, there's a first for everything... I was more concerned when I left it at the bus station overnight though. I don't think that was a smart idea on my part. At least the airport has an attendant, most likely a lot of cameras, and you can't really pull a truck in to steal it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolgeoff Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 i think it is pretty safe as long as your lock it up good,they is not much chance of someone putting it on a pickup without a camera or someone noticing what is happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
