TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, you can rent a car at Suvarnabhumi Airport without a prior booking, but it's not always the best option. Walk-up rentals typically have higher rates and limited vehicle availability, often focusing on more expensive models. Many previous renters recommend making a reservation to ensure you get the car size you want.

You might not get the size car you want. If you just walk up they usually only have the most expensive available
