Baggage handling is fairly fast and efficient.
Passengers usually find their bags waiting once they come out of immigration. Since its construction in the 1920s, the airfield has grown to be one of Asia's busiest crossroads. Two large, airy international passenger terminals plus a domestic terminal are strung out north to south along the east side of Vibhavadi Rangsit Road. Relief for the bottlenecks at immigration will be provided by the new Nong Ngu Hao airport emerging from paddyfields and cobra-snake swamps on Bangkok's nondescript eastern fringe. The airport contains all the facilities a business traveler might need - a full range of restaurants, shops and services.
