Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK), also known as (New) Bangkok International Airport, is one of two international airports serving Bangkok, Thailand. Suvarnabhumi covers an area of 3,240 hectares (8,000 acres), making it one of the biggest international airports in Southeast Asia and a regional hub for aviation.

Around 50 million passengers travel through Suvarnabhumi Airport every year, and as well as being the international arrival point for Thailand it is also a transfer airport for South East Asia. Bangkok International Airport is located 16 miles outside of town, but it is easy to get to Bangkok city centre, either via the airport link or via taxi – although be warned that traffic jams are likely during peak hours.

Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) is the other international airport serving Greater Bangkok. The airport is considered to be one of the world's oldest international airports and Asia's oldest operating airport. It is very easily accessible expressway from downtown as well as if needed a connection to the New International Airport can be done easily via the elevated expressways. Since the numbers of flights is very limited, the airport has become very user-friendly, and aside of Thai public holidays, is not too crowded. In addition, a Train station is available in short walking distance of the terminal allowing an easy commute to Hua Lomphong main station.
