TLDR : Answer Summary
The estimated taxi fare from Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) to Don Mueang Airport (DMK) varies considerably among users. Some report paying around 2,400 THB plus tolls, while others suggest that fares closer to 500 THB are more typical for a regular taxi from the official taxi queues. It is recommended to always use the meter and consider using ride-sharing apps like Grab or Bolt. Additionally, there is a free shuttle available between the two airports if you have a flight ticket for Don Mueang.

Piss poor planing on your part. You should have already had all your flights booked. But yes, sorry the taxi cheated you.

For your future reference the shuttle bus between DMK and BKK is free if you can show flight bookings or 30bt without flight bookings

you could have taken the free shuttle, or gone to the taxi queue, or allowed more time between flights.

 Oh wow, thats brutal. 🥺 They were fine during covid but are seemingly back to their old ways. Always insist on using the meter and take a photo of their taxi license which should be posted in full view.
