BKK Gate Numbers

I want to look up my flights before I land at BKK, to see what gate I might arrive at, and what gate I will be departing from. Is this information not available anywhere on any website? I can find it for most other airports, but it seems like BKK does not publish this information except inside the airport. Might make the difference between sprinting through the airport and a leisurely jog when I travel there.

Does anyone have a link to a site that publishes BKK gate information? (or another way to get this info?)

Not available online, as far as I know. There are plenty of departure screens on arrival though, so should be able to identify it rather quickly after disembarkation of your arriiving flight.

It likely isn't a hard and fast rule, but don't Thai Airways generally use C & D gates for international flights?

What is a hard and fast rule is every flight I arrive on (non-Thai Airways) always, always, always parks up at either G5, F5 or E9 i.e. its always a long walk to immigration - or at least it seems that way! (if its not clear, I'm making a joke)

not necessarily....have also arrived at E and many times at bus gates...late night departure often also from A and B (domestic gates are used for international departures but access from a higher floor)

It does happen. I believe AOT is doing some work on the aprons over at the opposite side of the airport which may render some gates unusable temporarily.

Also, TG uses G5 when certain important people are onboard

That was most certainly the case.

Looks like the "soft-open" of the BKK satellite terminal will be on September 28, which just happens to be a day I will be passing through BKK (HKT-BKK-TDX).

Do we know yet which flights and/or airlines will be using the satellite terminal?

I will be back on October 18 (TDX-BKK-DOH) so that should be an even more interesting time. I will try to post photos if things have changed.

This is the first G DP I've seen since the opening of BKK almost two decades ago. Lol.
I have never seen TG departing from G, ever. Neither have I seen it departing from F concourse.

There was a certain very important person + entourage on board (flight was to Germany).

remember departing from G on a TG A380 bound for CDG before Covid....no VIP on board except myself ...I remember well as the escort from the F lounge wanted to take the elevator down to arrival level, take the golf cart through D and then go through security up to departure level again...I refused and walked at high speed through D after saying bye to the escort....

They typically use G5 when there are *certain* people onboard

I believe the VVIP Lounges are in Concourse G so makes sense when transporting "royalty".
