    Getting from Khao San Road to Don Muang Airport? While Backpacking Thailand, many choose to stay in Khao San Road.

    And this is a guide for helping you find the quickest and cheapest connection!

    Travelers going to DMK airport from Khao San often take taxi (price 220 THB), or take the shuttle buses (150 THB shuttle bus price to DMK airport).

    But I’d strongly suggest to skip both of these and go with the third option. And what’s the third option?

    1. My flight is 7:30 am in these morning from Don Maung airport. I will be staying in Rambuttri Alley. Is there any bus available to get to the airport in time? Thanks in advance for your information and help.
      Regards
      Paul

    2. Thanks for the information. Did see a piece where some on was asking the question of where to get the A4 Bus you have given this information. The other attempt only had two replies..
      1) was to advise the traveller not to stay in KSR and
      2) the other was to tell the traveller that if they could not afford the taxi fare then they should stay at home.
      Once again thanks for your help.

      1. Thanks Michael for the kind words, I am glad that post was helpful to you. I wonder why people on online travel forums even bother to reply if they can’t even be polite or respond to you on point.

    3. Hi, I will be arriving in Bangkok late Feb, and will be needing to get off at the stop near Rambuttri Rd. Do you know if it has a stop number so that I know when to get the bus to stop? Also will be leaving BKK in early March and getting back to DMK airport. I notice the road is one-way,so do I get ON the bus at the same stop, head further down to where the bus terminates before it returns to DMK? Help please, first time to BKK and need some advice. Cheers, Rob.

    4. Hi.. so glad to find your information..
      Thanks before.. I need a little more information, maybe you can gimme any suggestion..
      my flight will be arrived DMK at 10 pm..
      can I take A4 bus to D&D Inn Khaosan?

    5. Thanks for the information not available on the a4 website. For someone who has a mid morning flight I found out from your blog that the bus at Wat Chanasongkram is begins at 7 AM.

      BTW your book is priced at $99? That’s a lot. or 99bht? or 99NP?

    6. Vidyut, my man… you have saved us a lot of trouble with this info! Great job, really. Even the official Don Meuang website does not mention this (neither Bus ’29’) option; they offer only taxi service in the ‘transportation’ section. It is a disgrace! Sites like your blog serve the good deed in the (once-used-to-be-reliable) internet. So, once again, big thank you!

      Cheers, Michal&Joana, Warsaw

    7. I apologise … The websites for this particular info. are like the lucky-lucky sellers on Khaosan Rd … The A4 bus does not pick-up where it drops off … I was a little lost where the return journey/bus starts … your further info. was clear and much appreciated … cheers
