The Airport Link connecting Bangkok and Suvarnabhumi airport will begin commercial services next Monday, State Railway of Thailand governor Yuthana Thapcharoen said on Tuesday.

Mr Yuthana said the Airport Link's Express Service and City Line systems will run every 15 minutes from 6am to midnight.

The City Line will make eight stops across the capital starting from Phayathai before heading to the airport. Its fares start at 15 baht.

The Express Service is a non-stop journey between Makkasan and Suvarnabhumi and the fare is 100 baht per trip.

The baggage handling system at Makkasan station was still in a testing period but should be operational before the end of this year. People with many bags may have some difficulties during the check-in process, the SRT chief said.
I took the airport train from Phayathai to Suvarnabhumi Airport on Monday evening. The train station is located about 50 away from Phayathai BTS station..can ask the counter staff for direction. It took about 35 mins minus the waiting time to get to the airport and its free. From the airport basement 2, take lift to the arrival hall. Also saw one grp of Sg girls taking the train but they looked yucks compared to TGs. But the train service is opened from 7am to 10am and 4pm to 7pm daily only.
