FAQs
Q: Should I use the hotel's airport transfer service instead of a taxi?A: It depends on your comfort zone, budget, time of day, number of people/bags, etc. In general, the cost will probably be about two to three times the typical taxi fare, or more. If you are relatively new to Asia, it might be a bit overwhelming, and you might find it reassuring to see someone holding a sign with your name as you walk out of baggage claim.
Q: Is it best to take the expressway or surface streets?A: Depending on your destination and time of day, surface streets might be quicker and/or shorter. However, expressway tolls will usually add less than THB 200 to the trip (see above), so you may wish to defer to your driver.
Q: What types of scams should I watch for?A: The most common thing you'll encounter is taxi drivers who do not want to use the meter. They will often ask for a flat fee that is usually much higher than the meter would register. If a driver refuses to use the meter, it's best to exit the taxi and get another. Do not get angry or argue with the driver. If a driver demands more money on arrival at your hotel, wait until your bags have been offloaded from the vehicle, then seek out a porter or other hotel employee to assist you. Again, do not get angry or argue with the driver. A driver may say there is a THB 50 fee to go to the airport. There is no fee to go TO the airport. If the fee is mentioned at the outset, get out and flag down a new taxi. If it is mentioned upon arrival at the airport, remove all your belongings from the taxi and calmly state that there is no such fee while handing over the metered amount. If the driver is insistent, offering to call over a police officer to assist will usually put an end to the discussion.
Q: What is the most common meter scam?
A: Very often, when you enter the taxi, the meter is obscured with a rag or towel, so you do not see that it has been running prior to your entrance,
and is now well over 100 Baht. Always ensure that you observe the driver starting the meter.
Q: If the driver does scam me, how much money are we talking about?A: Usually no more than THB 200-300, which is about USD 7-10
Q: I think I still have other questions...A: Just hit the reply button and get feedback from other helpful FlyerTalkers who take Bangkok taxis regularly!
Q: This all sounds like hassle. Is there some way I can use a small amount of money to make that go away?A: The AOT limo stands before and immediately after customs are trustworthy, although their initial quote will be for their most expensive vehicle. Ask for the Isuzu SUV. You'll be looking at 1,050THB / $33.50 to the center of town, inclusive of all fees and fares, and a small increment on that for a sedan. Credit cards are accepted. You will get a printed receipt before you get in the taxi. The vehicle will be well-driven, clean, and will have seatbelts.

WHAT TO DO
Taxis accept cash only. There are ATMs and currency exchangers inside the terminal.
- Take an elevator or escalator down to the ground level.
- Follow the signs to one of the two taxi queues outside of the terminal on Level One.
- The taxi queue attendant will ask your destination and write it on a taxi slip. UPDATE: There are no longer attendants to write your destination at BKK. You get a slip from a touchscreen kiosk which directs you to a parking stall number where you meet your car/driver.
- The larger part of the taxi slip is yours to keep, the smaller part goes to your driver. Be sure to keep your taxi slip as it contains information you will need if a problem arises. Do not give your portion of the taxi slip to the driver, even if he asks for it. UPDATE: There is no portion of the new slip from the kiosk to give the driver.
BASE COST
- Airport Fee - THB 50 per taxi levied from the airport (never to the airport)
- THB 35 - flag drop through 1km

Just when I assumed this thread couldn't get any more pedantic or silly, we now have "rules".
1) Take a newer model taxi:
Any advice on identifying acceptable model years for taxis? Is a 2008 model acceptable?
2) 555 Rule: at 5kms the meter fare should be 55 baht. It might be 57, it could be 53 but use that as a guide. If your fare is 70-85 baht something is wrong.
After one has identified that “something is wrong”, what are the “corollaries” to the “555 Rule”? Jump out of a moving taxi on the motorway in the vicinity of Srinakarin Road?
I guess this “rule” assumes that while the meter may be “hot”, the distance measurement is “warm”?
3) One press to start the meter: it only take one press to activate the meter. The abovementioned rate in older meters can be activated by 2 or 3 presses depending on the meter model. If you are in an older taxi and the driver presses the button more than once, that is a warning. Just jump out and take another taxi.
Should we leave our bags behind? Is it OK to "jump out" of a moving taxi?

You forgot to ask- what level of life risk is acceptable to challenge the 50 THB assumed overage?

A subject of numerous concerns and complaints as evidenced by the number of posts on this thread. It was explained why and how it works. Clearly you already knew that and the issue doesn't concern you. However, that is not the case for many others. People can use the info or ignore it.
I don't really understand why you would feel compelled to deride such information? Criticize or correct the information if it is inaccurate by all means or even better add your own insight for the benefit of others. However, just being cynical for the sake of it, is really a waste of time.
And frankly, you really should have been able to entertain the thread with a much more sarcastic post with funny culturally specific queries than just "it is ok to jump out of a moving taxi". That is way too simplistic and displays a patent lack of creative thought in your post. One would have expected something much more witty from yourself.
Again, follow those simple rules and one will (almost) never encounter a "hot" or "rigged" meter taxi ride.

One thing that can throw the meter off from the 555 rule is if the driver turns it on while you're still loading your bags, etc. into the taxi. That initial wait time can get calculated in.
Your advice can be summed up fairly simply: Be aware of your surroundings and use your head.
Not so bad after all.

I think I had Bangkok's best taxi driver yesterday from the airport to town. That driver actually picked me out of the line (and showed me to a free counter which the form was filled out by a lady) and I was actually wondering if he would be using the meter or not. First thing he did was to put on the meter. I asked him to use the highway which he did. He actually gave me recipts for the tolls paid at the two gates. Traffic was bad though, it all ended up with the airport surcharge at 454 THB. I rounded up to 460 (should probably have tipped more). He didn't even drive at 140 km/h nor even attempt to scam me. I was attemted scammed though yesterday night when I went home from a bar to my hotel, but I managed to convince the driver to use the meter which was of course less the fare he quoted.

Possible thought. Some posters have said they have encountered hot meters more than once. I've never had one and I estimate I've taken 3-5,000 taxi rides in Bangkok. But the descriptions of actual hot meter rides all seem to start at the airport, and I never take a taxi at the airport. So I'm wondering if that's the difference.
For those who have had the problem, did you pick up the cab at the airport? Or am I making too many assumption?

Actually I thought his original post was sarcasm. Even in terrible traffic, airport to downtown has never been anywhere near what he quoted.

In many many taxi rides to Puthummonthon and other far northwest reaches of Bangkok I've never noticed a rigged meter... and otherwise quick hops around town might be barely noticeable.
All of my incidents have been on trips beginning at the airport IIRC and this makes sense. Where else is there an almost guaranteed 25+km trip going to emanate from?

As a new part of the "Taxi Thread".
Over the weekend I had family from up north visit. My niece wanted to see "Safari World". My wife worked a deal with the taxi driver on Langsuan near Lumpini. This is one of the "van" taxis, larger ones that seat many people as there were 5 of us. He took us there, waited there serveral hours for us (as we moved from Safari to Marine walked us through the necessary directions, etc.) took us home in the evening. 1,500 THB That was a negotiated fare. But if we had taken 2 regular taxis and then had to wait and flag down 2 more to get home it might have been just as much. The guy didn't make me give him a deposit or pay in advance. Waited at the park for us and only paid in the evening on our return.

Leaving my hotel on Sukhumvit last week, I got the doormen to call me a taxi, agreed to the meter, jumped in and was off...
A hundred meters down the soi, he starts bargaining for 450THB. I told him to take me back to the hotel. "OK, OK, meter," he says and I agree. Not even another 50 meters and he's spewing some of this fixed price stuff again, so I made him turn around and send me back to the hotel.
Hotel staff was happy to call another cab. Again, agreed on the meter. We were barely out of the parking lot when he demands 500THB. It was an easy U-turn right back to the hotel entrance to try another cab.
This one, turned on the meter, and drove the other way (Asoke bypass) to avoid the first tollway. Because of the protest detours and the normal Rama IX traffic, the meter was 89THB when we reached the motorway entrance.
199 on the meter at BKK, plus 25THB for the one toll. I gave him 300THB. We were both happy. (total 325THB)
I'm a bit tired of these taxi games. But, if you have extra time, it's worth switching cabs.

My latest is BHT255 from BKK which I suspected the meter has been tempered but too tired to dispute, however the return journey the following day is also BHT250. Both in clear traffic using highway.
Looks like the percentage of taxis with "hot" meter is on the rise, or is it me who is just plain unlucky getting 2 in a row

2 of us will be arriving Suvarnabhumi around 6:30/7pm on a Sunday heading to the JW Marriott for our first Thailand visit. We'll have a large suitcase each, but can carry them fine.
With traffic and train schedules around that time, would you recommend taking the skytrain or taxi? Normally I would just take the train, but it looks like it would require 2 transfers. Any alternatives which require a short walk?
Thanks!

To answer your query, given that there are 2 of you with a large suitcase each and your destination just take a taxi. At that time on a Sunday it should take all of 20 mins max. Not worth the hassle and time of taking 2 or 3 diff metros.

It is not the skytrain as the BTS is known but the ARL, Airport Rail Link run by the SRTET. http://srtet.co.th/en/index.html
