jobin Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Will be flying from CM to Bangkok, renting a car at the airport then driving to HH. Days later return car. But one of us will fly on directly to Hong Kong, the other to CM. Which airport DMK or BKK, best serves the need? Probably the driving through Bangkok a big factor, and possible wait time and convenience for HK flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 If money is not an issue, I'd take a taxi to HH, and rent a car there. As you say, dealing with the traffic from the airport to HH can be daunting. I've driven in Bangkok many times. And avoid it at all costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you must rent a car in Bangkok, then avoid DMK - absolute disaster getting a rental car back there. If you do use BKK then get a map and ensure you know exactly where to return the car and how to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 If you have a smart phone, Google maps is fantastic. Can even download a small bit and use offline. You are right, I'd go with Swampy if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baansgr Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 You could fly direct CM to HH, rent a car while there and the one going to HK either get a taxi or the bus service to BKK while the other flys back to CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 As its likely one of your departing flights to HK will be from Suvarnabhumi Airport that would be the most convenient. Driving from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Hua Hin is also very convenient - The southern part of the Outer-Ring-Road circumnavigates central Bangkok. As another poster has mentioned - Google Maps on a Smart Phone will make this journey trouble free. Route Link Here: The poster above mentioned flying CM direct to Hua Hin - I think Kan air may have flights - Booking a return Taxi to BKK may then be the option unless you also need the car in Hua Hin to get around.

stevenl Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I always found Don Muang direction Hua Hin very convenient. You get directly on the tollway and stay there till it ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kan Win Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Map of The Big Mango Both Airports are within easy access to Rama II (2) road (Express Way or Route 9) leading you down to Hua Hin. Have a safe trip folks. Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
