One good thing to understand about Bangkok is traffic. Last night my commute home - normal at 6:30 PM might be 35-50 min. was 1 hour 40 min. I'd say this happens about once a month for reasons unknown. (other than obvious like flooding). I don't think distance is the factor. Last night 1 hour 25 min. was going maybe 2 KM to get to the expressway and then I zoomed home.

Also within Bangkok unless you know a route really well there are some intersections and locations that are just problematic. For instance my commute is an easy one (25 min. in the morning). It's mostly free of what I call "intersections of death". But there are some areas and streets that are very bad at rush hour. If a location requires one of those it can add 30 min. to what seem like to very similar locations.

To about any place in Bangkok center an hour would be a safe to/from Airport time plus or minus 15 min. For rush hour add 30 min. I went from center to airport at 4PM the other day and it was about 35 min. But lucky no traffic. In your scheduling you should just allow 2 hours in your mind if you really want to relax. I woudn't try anything tighter than 2 hours before flight time for drive and check in. Again if rush hour add 30 min.

Hope this helps

It help.

My flight will be at 8h30 am and would stay (maybe, yet to decide) in Novotel Bangna.

Yesterday was payday. It is like clockwork on payday, everyone hits the road to spend their fortunes.
