First appointment
Give the full arrival address in Bangkok and the time your group needs to be ready there, rather than using the event start as the pickup time.
Request Bangkok group transport with the airport code, hotel address and each booked visit. Give flight numbers, luggage and the return requirement so collections can be planned around the complete itinerary.

Start with the fixed points in your day
Movement between visits
List every venue in visit order. Tell us which stops need a waiting vehicle and which only require a later collection.
Last departure
Finish the brief with your last drop-off in Bangkok, or the next destination if the group continues elsewhere.
Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang are separate pickups
Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang are separate Bangkok airports. Airports of Thailand describes a shuttle between them for passengers connecting between flights, with proof of onward travel required. It is not a general hotel transfer or a private coach booking.
For a private Bangkok airport transfer, use the airport shown on each flight booking and give the terminal if known. If your group changes airports, provide both flights and ask for the transfer to be assessed as a distinct journey; do not rely on a generic city-centre travel time.
Give the Bangkok venue entrance as well as its name
A hotel, conference venue or attraction can have several access points. Send the entrance requested by the organiser, the time the group needs to arrive and any walking restrictions. Keep loading, unloading and coach waiting separate in the brief so the operator can confirm a suitable stop.
List all bags and equipment before comparing minibus hire with a coach and driver. For a route beyond Bangkok, use the Thailand transport guide and include overnight bases, each day’s movements and the final return flight.
Airport references for Bangkok

If your flight is booked at Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and the destination is Samut Prakan, use that city guide to prepare the hotel or venue entrance and required arrival time.

Your Bangkok transport questions
Can the Bangkok inter-airport shuttle take our group to a hotel?
The Airports of Thailand shuttle described between Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang is for passengers connecting between flights, with onward-travel documents. Request a separate hotel-transfer quotation for a private group journey.
What information is needed for a Suvarnabhumi-to-Don Mueang transfer?
Provide both flight numbers and dates, terminals where known, passenger and luggage counts, and the required onward check-in time. Ask for the route and connection feasibility to be assessed; a transfer request does not guarantee a flight connection.
How should I organise several timed visits in Bangkok?
Put the venues in order with a required arrival time for each one. Use full addresses in Bangkok, Bangkok, and distinguish a waiting period from a new pickup. The schedule can then be checked as a complete itinerary.
Can our Bangkok enquiry include an onward visit to Samut Prakan?
Yes, you can request an onward leg to Samut Prakan. The map references are about 20 km apart in a straight line. This does not establish the road distance or vehicle availability. Give the onward address, the visit duration and whether you need to return.
What should I include for arrivals at Don Mueang International Airport (DMK)?
Use the airport shown on your ticket, such as Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), along with the flight number, date, terminal if known and number of bags. State any arrivals on different flights; collection arrangements and waiting terms need confirmation.
What location details identify the DMK arrival for Bangkok?
The airport reference is Don Mueang International Airport, with IATA code DMK and municipality listed as Bangkok. It is approximately 21.0 km in a straight line from the Bangkok reference in Bangkok. Use the airport and terminal on your flight booking, then give the full final address. The geographic record does not establish a collection point, road route or transfer time; those details need confirmation for the quoted journey.
