I can relate to that. Ever since I discovered Pattaya, I have skipped Bangkok. After alighting at Suvarnabhumi, I hopped on to Roong Reung to Pattaya immediately. Everything in Pattaya is within a stone's throw. The best part is the city never sleeps. So whenever I'm in Pattaya, I have to make an effort to exercise control over food and drinks.
I can't wait for Terminal 21 at Pattaya North to start business.
Yup. Both Bell Transport and Roong Rueang very good and reliable transport provider. I talk about both service since this is a favorite topic with visitors to Pattaya.
Both companies share the same booth at the lowest floor at Suvarnabhumi airport (same floor as food court). The departure times of both companies are hourly or 2 hourly from 7 am till 10 pm (check their websites for latest schedule)
Bell is THB200 and terminate at Pattaya North bus terminal and will transfer you to your hotel within Pattaya and Jomtien areas at no extra costs.
Roong Ruang Bus is 120 Baht and will stop along Sukumvit Road at junctions of Naklua, Pattaya North, Pattaya Central, Pattaya South, Thepprasit and terminating at Food Mart Supermarket at Thappraya Office (Opposite Pan Pan restaurant). From there, you have to take either 10 baht song taew, motorcycle taxi or song taew taxi to your hotel.
Bell travel service need to book in advance as they are extremely popular. Can book online via their website. Roong Ruang no booking in advance. Its first come first served.
