Driving to airport on the 13th!

Post by usual suspect »

Now then mi hearties!
Quick Q. for you...
...I've to drive to Swampy on the evening of the 13th..yes I know it's a mad stunt, but mother-dear is flying out at 3.00am next morning.
My plan is to leave H.H. around 9.oopm..allowing 4+ hours to get there..
..has anyone had to do this before? Will the roads actually be quiet at that time..? Is the 6pm airport bus the only real safe option..??..Thanx in advance for any usefull comments... :cheers: :cheers:

Driven from Cha-am to Dusit Thani Bangkok on Songkran Day a couple of times (was flying early the next morning), leaving around midday, and got to the hotel in about 2 hours, as a I laughed at everyone queuing to go in the opposite direction!
Another occasion went to Dusit Princess Srinakarin (20 mins from the airport) on Songkran Day and only traffic was as we neared Seacon Square.
Roads were empty daytime, but not so sure how many might head back in the evening.
