Top tips for hiring a car at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
- Bangkok is the capital city of Thailand, a popular holiday destination for many people all over the world. Bangkok is teeming with places to visit, temples to see and markets to peruse, and car hire at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is an ideal opportunity to take yourself around the city. Using a car hire in Bangkok means avoiding a long wait at the airport for public transport or taxis. You won't have to barter with taxi drivers or deal with chaotic minibus drivers hurtling along the city streets.
- When returning your Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport car hire, all you need to do is follow the signs when approaching the airport. Head towards the car hire parking garage and drive to the company you hired the car from. Because these companies operate out of the airport, there are rarely times when they're closed, so you'll be able to drop the vehicle off at any time without incurring extra costs, provided it’s the time and day you agreed to.
- Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport is one of the busiest airports in Thailand, with millions of passengers commuting to and from the airport regularly. When picking up your car hire or dropping it off, we suggest giving yourself plenty of extra time to cater for possible delays in the process. It's best to book online before arriving and make sure you have all your paperwork ready to speed up the process.
- Bangkok traffic is some of the busiest in the world, so travel times can end up being longer than expected and you'll spend a fair amount of time in traffic. For this reason, smaller and more fuel-efficient cars are often the best choice when hiring a car in Bangkok. There are a wide variety of modern compact and economy cars available through car hire companies at the airport.

FAQs about hiring a car at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
Where will I find my car hire at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport?
Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport is home to several well-known and local car hire companies that all operate out of the airport. The car hire company desks are located in the arrivals hall, on the second floor. Budget, Payless, Europcar, Drive Car and Chic Car Rental are all located by Gate 8, while Bizcar and Limousine Car Rental are both located closer to Gate 6. Once you've filled out the forms and handed them to the company employee, you'll be escorted to the parking garage where your car is.

You must present your valid passport when collecting your car, as well as an International Driving Licence. You'll also need a valid credit card in your own name to cover the cost and deposit. If you've booked online with a credit card, the same card and card owner must be present when picking up the vehicle.

Pros:
Check-in/Check-out was a breeze. The Thrifty counter at BKK is co-located with Hertz, conveniently at the airport. The folks at the counter spoke perfect English and were really helpful with all of our questions. We were able to add a second driver for no cost and there was no hassle about declining extra insurance, which we didn't need due to having it through our credit card. Best of all, they had the car waiting for us at the airport, having been brought to us from the off-site location. (We did have to return at the off-site location, but there was zero wait for the shuttle bus to get to the airport.) Even though we had booked the smallest/cheapest available model, the car we were given was plenty roomy for 4 adults and all of our luggage. I'm not sure if we were given an upgrade, or if all of their cars are just that nice, but we were really happy with it. Driving in Thailand was no problem outside of Bangkok (which we had seen earlier by taxi). Having a car made it really simple, convenient, comfortable, and cost-effective for the 4 of us to visit outlying areas like Khao Yai and Ayutthaya. Driving is on the left, like Australia and England, but Thai drivers are so polite it's easy to merge and traffic is not too fast nor too slow - really perfect. I highly recommend it.9,6 Wonderful

Pros:
1. I liked that the counter is right in the main terminal. 2. I liked that the car was located directly outside the counter location.Cons:
1. I did not like that there was no "Thrifty" sign at the car rental counters location. I asked several of the other rental desk workers where I could find Thrifty, and none of them knew. Finally I was told that I should go to the Hertz counter if I wanted to rent from Thrifty. 2. I did not like that the return procedure is disorganized. We were told to call the number on the paper that was attached to my rental agreement prior to returning the car. I called this number and got a recording. I returned the car at approximately 0330am and had to park quite a distance away from where I picked up the car because private vehicles were not allowed to enter the area where I originally picked the car up. The signs to show where to return are not well placed or do not properly explain where to go to return a Thrifty or Hertz car. I parked the vehicle in the commercial bus area and when I walked into the terminal and to the Thrifty counter, I found the agent sleeping on the desk. 3. The agents that Thrifty use speak little or no English. I had to ask an agent from another rental company to assist with communication. 4. When I picked up the vehicle the fuel tank was not full, yet the agent circled FULL, I had to seek assistance from another renter to speak Thai with the agent and explain that the fuel tank was not full, and that I was not accepting the vehicle with F circled.Avis

Cons:
Drop-off instructions are confusing. Also, drop-off location at Suvarnabhumi airport is not as good as for other rental car companies. Fortunately, the employee drove us with all our luggage to the gate where we had to check in.10,0 Wonderful

Aug 2018
Cons:
Upon arriving in Bangkok we found that the van provided was unlike the one we reserved and could not store nearly the amount of luggage as the one shown online. We also were informed that we would not have gps even though we had requested it prior to our trip. The vehicle itself was in fair condition save for the speakers/radio deck which were abismal. They constantly shorted out and were nearly useless. When we returned from our trip and attempted to return the van, your customer service had claimed they could pick up the van for us; however, we were left on our own and had to return the van to a different budget. This cost us almost 4 hours and we nearly missed our bus. Considering that we gave months notice on our requests we are EXTREMELY dissatisfied with this service and will not be using budget again.10,0 Wonderful
