SIN is a great place to waste time, I love their swimming pool and cinema. Is there anything similar at BKK? Normally I have just ventured as far as the Lounges.

Thanks all ^
I was in a similar situation last July. What I did was took a taxi to Hyatt Erawan to have breakfast, that killed ~3 hrs (incl the taxi ride). Afterwards visit Erawan Shine (which is a must for me) and went back to the airport for a shower + massage.

I was only in C, if you are coming in on F (TG) then i think you can get one of those rooms in the F lounge to sleep for a couple of hrs before you wonder around the shops and enjoy your 1 hr spa service.

Enjoy!
