Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) is one of the two international airports serving Bangkok. Formerly spelled Don Muang, it served as the old Bangkok International Airport until the opening of Suvarnabhumi Airport on 28 September, 2006.

After a few months of closure, Don Mueang reopened on 24 March, 2007 for non-connecting domestic commercial flights. As such, despite having "international" to its name, Don Mueang is actually a domestic airport today. Only two local airlines use it - Nok Air and Orient Thai Airlines. Today Don Mueang is also jointly used by the Royal Thai Air Force as a military base.

Don Mueang Airport is located about 30km to the north of downtown Bangkok. You can easily take a taxi to go there.

The cheapest option to reach the airport is by taking a train from Hualamphong Railway Station to the Don Muang Train Station. However you will be sharing your ride on a local commuter train.

Arriving at Don Mueang International Airport

The taxi stand of Don Mueang Airport is on the sidewalk outside Arrivals. As with Suvarnabhumi Airport, there is a taxi queue where your destination is written down and you pass the slip to the driver.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
