Bangkok airport maps — Suvarnabhumi floor plan + Don Mueang layout

01Suvarnabhumi (BKK) — the 7-level layout in plain terms

Suvarnabhumi's terminal stacks seven levels around the central spine:

**Level 1 (B1) — Public transport.** Airport Rail Link (ARL) station to Phaya Thai. Bus stops to Pattaya, Hua Hin, Khao San Road. **Level 2 — Arrivals.** This is where you exit after immigration + baggage claim. **Gate 4 is the SabaiRide chauffeur meeting point** (also where most public taxis queue from Gate 8). Premium Lane immigration counters and Fast Track entry are also on this level. **Level 3 — Connections / Shopping.** Transit area, duty-free shopping for departing passengers. **Level 4 — Departures.** Check-in counters A–W along the front, security screening behind. VAT Refund counter near Gate 10. **Level 5 — Lounges + offices.** Some airline lounges (e.g., Royal Silk) and admin offices. **Level 6–7 — Hotel + Magic Garden.** Novotel Suvarnabhumi hotel and an indoor garden walkway.

02Suvarnabhumi concourses A–G — which gate is which airline

From immigration (Level 2), the airside concourses fan out:

- **Concourse A** — international long-haul (some Thai Airways, ANA, JAL, Emirates A380) - **Concourse B–C** — international medium-haul (Asian carriers, some legacy European) - **Concourse D** — busiest international concourse (mixed, includes most code-shares) - **Concourse E** — international (Singapore, Cathay, etc.) - **Concourse F** — international long-haul (some American + European carriers) - **Concourse G** — international (rotating allocation)

Gate assignments shift; the airline confirms about 2–3 hours before departure. If you have a tight connection, look at the departures board after immigration — concourses are 5–15 minutes' walk apart with travelators.

03Where to meet your SabaiRide chauffeur at BKK

After clearing immigration (Level 2) and collecting bags, **walk to Gate 4 on the same Level 2**. Your chauffeur waits curbside with a tablet displaying your name. The flight is auto-tracked from your booking confirmation — landing-delay adjustments happen automatically, and the free 60-minute wait window starts at touchdown.

04Don Mueang (DMK) — Terminal 1 + Terminal 2 layout

Don Mueang is laid out differently from Suvarnabhumi — two separate buildings connected by an enclosed walkway:

**Terminal 1 (T1) — international.** All international LCC flights since 2019 (AirAsia X international, Thai Lion Air international, FlyArystan, regional rotations). Customs and immigration on Level 2. Arrivals exit via Doors 5 and 6. **Terminal 2 (T2) — domestic.** Thai AirAsia domestic, Thai Lion Air domestic, Nok Air. Departures and arrivals on Level 3. Arrivals exit via Doors 11–14. **Between T1 and T2** — 450m enclosed Level-2 walkway (5–8 minutes' walk) or free 24/7 shuttle bus (every 5–10 minutes daytime). See Don Mueang T1 to T2 guide for self-transfer timing.

05Where to meet your SabaiRide chauffeur at DMK

At Don Mueang, the meeting point depends on which terminal:

- **Terminal 1 (international arrival)**: chauffeur waits curbside at **Door 6** with a tablet sign. Exit through Doors 5–6 after customs. - **Terminal 2 (domestic arrival)**: chauffeur waits at **Door 14**. Exit on Level 3, then walk to the curb.

The correct exit door is included in your confirmation email — based on the flight number you booked with. Flight tracking works on both domestic and international DMK arrivals. DMK arrival pickup guide has the meeting-point map with photos. Flat THB 3,000 to any Bangkok address from either DMK terminal.

06The airport's own PDF maps (and why this guide exists)

Both Suvarnabhumi (airportthai.co.th) and Don Mueang (donmueangairportthai.com) publish official PDF floor plans — they're accurate but designed by the airport authority, not by travellers. The PDFs answer "where is concourse C" but not "where will the SabaiRide chauffeur actually be standing" or "where does immigration queue the longest at 8pm Friday". This guide complements the official maps with the practical answers a traveller actually needs. For the airport-authority PDF, search "Suvarnabhumi airport map" or "Don Mueang airport floor plan" — Google ranks the official source on the first page.

Which Don Mueang terminal handles international flights?

Where is the Fast Track / Premium Lane at Suvarnabhumi?

On Level 2 (the immigration floor) — dedicated counters separate from the standard queue, accessed with a Fast Track voucher purchased online or at the counter. For when it's worth buying, see the [Bangkok airport Fast Track guide](/guides/bangkok-airport-fast-track). Don Mueang has a less-developed Fast Track service; usually skip.
