The Airport Rail Link (ARL) railway line connects central Bangkok with Suvarnabhumi International Airport.
The City Line station is located on the Basement level at Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK). The Airport Rail Link connects to the MRT subway at Makkasan Station (MRT Petchaburi Station) and the BTS Skytrain at Phayathai Station in Bangkok city centre. Making it easy for users to get to their final destination by subway or overhead skytrain.
Many travelers find it a safe, inexpensive alternative to using the bus or taking taxi to or from the airport. However, for a family or couple with a lot of luggage a private transfer may be a better option.
The Airport Rail link operates daily from 06:00 to 24:00, with commuter City Line trains departing every 10 minutes during peak hours (06:00-09:00 and 16:00-20:00) and 15 minutes off peak and weekends.
