Why go to Ekkamai ? They have buses from BKK directly to Pattaya and Jomtien every 2 hrs and they drop you at your hotel - 250B (https://www.belltravelservice.com/pa...dTransfer.aspx).
The other company going to Jomtien runs even every hour. The airport is on the way from Ekkamai to Pattaya and already out of the heavy traffic. You would waste a lot of time.
