Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how many times you can do a land border run in a year?
Summary so far
The original question asks how many times one can do a land border run in Thailand in a year. However, the discussion quickly deviated from the topic and became a series of responses regarding taxi fares, transportation from the airport to Pattaya, and overall frustrations with the comments and interactions. The responses included various taxi fares, transportation advice, and some irrelevant comments, overshadowing the original question about border runs.

Time to just stop visa exemption totally. Reducing it from 60 to 30 days has not stopped the cheap Charlies from the UK.

I guess we have to be grateful if the Brits aren’t being drug mules.

Take the bus that's down stairs, 140 baht get off in Jomtien and catch the baht bus to where your going. Much cheaper option

baht bus? I guess you mean the 'songthaew'. I dont understand why falang call this a 'baht bus'. If you really want to give it an English name. Call it 'two seats' as the translation means

Robert Welsh Asia The bus is OK if you have little or no luggage. Not so good if you have two big cases, though the bus + a Bolt car for the last leg could work. Also the last bus is quite early in the evening and even during the day you may have to wait an hour or two if they are busy, which they often are in high season.

I would rather pay the 1100B and be home within 2 hours of stepping off the plane, day or night.

Mike Ratel I don't know, why you think my account is fake, but at Bkk Airport if you go down to the 1st floor at the far end near the eatery. Are bus terminals, there is one that makes trips to Pattaya and Jomtien. Jomtien is the best option because you can catch the baht bus to go back to Pattaya for 10-20 baht I heard it had increased to 20 baht. It's the way I always went after catching taxis and bolt rides for almost two years. Just trying to save you some money.
