Bangkok has a monsoon type of climate, which can be classified into three main seasons: rainy (May - October), cool (November - January) and summer (February - April). The average annual temperature was 29.2°C (2005).
Suvarnabhumi Airport: The new international airport is located about 15 km of on the east-bound Bangna-Trat highway in Bang Phli district, Samut Prakarn province and is about 25 km. from downtown Bangkok. It is accessible via five routes.
Domestic Airlines: All domestic routes for destinations such as Samui, Phuket, Krabi, Chumphon as well as Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai are serviced from the concourses A and B of Bangkok's new aviation hub, Suvarnabhumi Airport.
With a warm, tropical climate, Bangkok is a popular destination any time of the year. However, the monsoon season from May through October keeps many visitors at bay with unpredictable storms, although it is the least expensive time to visit. Most people prefer to come to Bangkok during November through April, when the weather is dry and pleasant, even though prices are at their peak.
High season: November to April Low season: May to August Shoulder season: September to October

A poignant trip to the Bridge Over the River Kwai is a must-do excursion for most visitors to the city, and the sight of the bridge (which unlike in the film was not destroyed) along with the allied cemeteries and the Death Railway is certain to leave many of the tour party in tears.
