And everything else question please: when transiting through Don Mueang on 2 domestic flights without checked baggage do you need to exit and then check in again with the general public, or is there any transit desk airside where you can check in for the second flight ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When transiting through Don Mueang Airport on two domestic flights without checked baggage, you generally do not need to exit and check in again. You can check in online prior to your flight, which simplifies the process. Additionally, there is a transit desk available for each airline airside where check-ins can be completed, although this is typically for flights with the same airline. If your flights are on different airlines, you may have to consider whether checked baggage is involved, as this could change the situation.

On domestic flights there is not much of an 'air side'. This term normally refers to being through immigrations on the way to international flights (or before immigrations, with arrivals). Domestic you still have a security check, but that is pretty much it. It would highly surprise me if they have a check-in desk on the other side of that, considering they also don't have this for international flights. But as others have said, if you check in online, you might slice out some of the time involved. Security should normally be pretty fast.

your response is tacky and rude; you have no information about his ticket, why be so quick to judge ?

There is a transit desk for each airline will a small security checkpoint as well.

Works fine for the same airline. If different airlines and checked bags it might change things.
