Airport - Taxis. If you are arriving from a long flight, try to arrange with your hotel for transfer on arrival at the airport. If not, you can book an ariport taxi or limousine from inside the arrivals hall. Fares are around 500-600 Baht. If you want a meter taxi (less luxurious, less expensive) join the (usually short) queue outside the arrivals building and get a taxi voucher from the ticket booth outside. Tell them your hotel. You pay the taxi driver on arrival at your destination. Fares vary depending on the time/distance from around 200Baht upwards. A small tip is always appreciated.
Depending on your hotel location, the driver may ask if you want to take the tollway. There two main toll roads into central Bangkok which cost 30-40 baht. This is an extra separate charge from the fare and optional. You should pay the driver direct as you go through the tollway. It can be much quicker to take the toll roads in standard "rush hour" periods.
